Moths from East Africa. 383 



nervure ; upper discoidal nervure forking at the upper end of 

 the cell from the subcostal nervure; median nervure emitting 

 the lowest branch at about three fifths of the length of the 

 cell ; the middle median nervule and the lower discoidal 

 nervule emitted at equal distances from the upper median 

 nervule and curving away from it ; two very distinct parallel 

 subniedian nervures running to the hind margin above the 

 hinder angle ; they are not bifid at the base, where they con- 

 verge. Hind wings with the costal and subcostal nervures 

 stalked at the base, and then running parallel to the tip. Cell 

 broad, the first subcostal nervule running obliquely upwards 

 from its extremity, the second nearly straight to the inner 

 margin. Discoidal nervule emitted about the middle of the 

 cell, which is merely bisected by a fold ; two upper median 

 nervules forking at the lower end of the cell and the lower 

 one at three fifths of the length of the cell ; two, or perhaps 

 three, subniedian nervures, but very slender and ill-defined. 

 This genus appears to be allied to Secusio. 



25. Neuroxena Ansorgei, sp. n. (PI. XIX. fig. 2.) 



Exp. 46 millim. 



Fore wings light brown, with the nervures buff towards 

 the base ; a uniformly broad oblique pale yellow bar 

 running from below the costa, just before the extremity of the 

 cell, nearly to the hinder angle, ceasing above the lowest 

 submedian nervure just before the hind margin. Hind wings 

 pale orange, shading into reddish on the lower and inner half, 

 and with a black border, gradually narrowed and ceasing at 

 the anal angle. Head black, orbits and mouth reddish ; 

 thorax blackish, with long narrow pointed tegul«, edged on 

 both sides with reddish. Abdomen reddish, with a row of 

 black spots on the back. Pectus yellow ; legs brown.
