478 Dr. Harry Eltringham on the Larvae and 
a male which emerged 30.9.15. Farquharson, Moor 
Plantation. 
Citrinophila tenera Kirby. Plate XII, fig. 11. 
Pupa. This little pupa was attached to bark of the 
Para Rubber tree on which it lay with the ventral surface 
in contact. The thoracic region, which is dark in colour, 
bears a prominent dorsal ridge, and along the whole length 
of the pupa are dorso-lateral prominences from which 
arise long branched hairs. The still longer hairs of the 
larval skin radiate in masses from the point of attachment. 
The general appearance is extremely cryptic. Length 7mm.

Hewitsonia similis Auriv. Plate XII, fig. 2. 
Pupa. Ground-colour very pale with some very small 
black markings on wing-cases and black-and-white dots 
on the remainder of the cuticle. A darker “ arrow head ”’ 
pattern on the dorsal thoracic region. The black-and- 
white dots are really chitinanths of simple structure, 
flat and of reniform outline. From various points of the 
cuticle arise long needle-like spines, some of which are 
black and some white. The lateral portions of the abdominal 
segments are flattened and expanded, and the last four 
segments are separated from the rest by a constriction. 
The general appearance reminds one of some large species 
of Coceid. It is attached terminally to a piece of bark 
and lies flat upon it. Remains of the larval skin show it 
to have been clothed with long fine branched hairs. Length 
17 mm. Lamborn, Moor Plantation. Emerged 28.11.13.

Larva. The drawing reproduced in fig. 7 must be 
regarded as to some extent diagrammatic, since from 
Farquharson’s notes it seems doubtful whether the 
head and legs are in life so prominently displayed as 
in the sketch. The colour is described as “ dull green,” 
like the larva of A. paneperata. The larva may be 
described as onisciform, the dorsal portion forming 
a ridge segmentally divided into stiff plates, the 
upper edges of which are projected backwards so as
