claval granules (at least in part) are pale sanguineous ; this is so 

 conspicuous that Walker could hardly have had this species be- 

 fore him when describing sicca, unless he had alcoholic material. 



Length : 7 mill. 



Hab: Queensland, Brisbane (vi), Bundaberg (ix-xii). 



2. sidjiica, sp. nov. 



Very close to the last but smaller and more reticulate. The 

 characters in the key also seem to distinguish it. 



Length : 6 mill. 



Hab: New South Wales, Sydney (i-ii). 



Of the two species previoiusly described, M. sicca has already 

 been referred to. M. uiiicolor Walker (1862 Journ. Ent. i, 315) 

 does not seem to belong to the genus. 



Jatiiella, gen. nov. 



Belongs to the Phalaenomorphini, but does not seem to be 

 closely related to any other genus. 



Vertex short, three to four times as wide as long, subtruncate 

 anteriorly, carinate medianly. Eyes prominent. Frons a little 

 longer than wide, at about right angles to the declivous prono- 

 tum, basal half carinate medianly. Second segment of antennae 

 much wider apically than basally, obliquely truncate apically. 

 Pronotum anteriorly truncate, narrower there than the vertex, 

 anterior margin almost on a line with the anterior margin of the 

 eyes, lateral margins highly sinuate, posterior margin subrotund- 

 ately emarginate, somewhat obsolescently tricarinate. Scutel- 

 lum with three keels, the lateral ones sinuate. Tegmina sub- 

 horizantal, overlapping apically. Costa a little arched near the 

 base, costal rather wider than sub-costal cell; radial vein 

 forked near the base, cubital forked a little nearer the apex ; no 

 srbapical line. Tibiae with one spine. 



T. anstraUac. sp. nov. 



Testaceous ; tegmina pale cinereo-testaceous, veins, cross- 

 veins and tiny specks in many of the cells pale brownish, some- 

 times with a reddish tinge. 



Length : 9-9J mill. 



Hab: Queensland. Cairns Cviii").
