11. Celerena vulgaris Butler. 



Along with the above-mentioued examples of C. hirtipes and niijriceps came 

 also 1 SS and 14 ? ¥ of another species, agreeing with hirtipes in the position and 

 length of the fnrrow in the c? forewing, but without any tufts of hair on the 

 hinJtibiae, thongh these are armed with an apical projection, and the finst joint 

 of hindtarsi is swollen and triangular. In these the face remains yellow, while 

 the vertex and shoulders are dark. The width of the transverse black band 

 of forewing varies much. In four examples (3 ? ? 1 cj) it is very broad, and the 

 black suffusion extends along inner margin towards base. The S agrees exactly 

 with the description of pvoximn Meyr. The rest, in which the basal yellow area 

 remains triangular and unsuffuscd, I refer to Butler's vulgaris, of which proxima 

 lleyr. must be considered as an extreme aberration. 



12. Rambara strigicosta spec. nov. 



■ForewiiKj : white ; the costa freckled and striated with grey ; the Hues formed 

 of ochi'eous spots ; first, basal, formed of three spots lying in a curve from one-fourth 

 of costa to one-fifth of inner margin ; the second, postmedian, from three-fourths of 

 costa to middle of inner margin ; the first five spots vertical to vein 4, except that 

 the spot on the radial is displaced basewards, the last two vertical beneath the 

 discocellular spot, the sixth obliquely half-way between the fifth and seventh ; sub- 

 marginal line continuous • a row of rather large round marginal spots ; cell-spot 

 large and black, irregularly triangular ; fringe white. 



Hindidnq : with cell-spot ochreous, moderate ; postmedian Hue strongly out- 

 curved at middle ; the rest as in forewiugs. 



Underside white ; the costa of forewiugs striated with grey, and the cell-spot 

 blackish. 



Head, thorax, and abdomen white ; palpi externally dark fuscous ; second 

 segment of abdomen with black sjMts. 



Expanse of wings : 2.5 mm.

Microschema nom. nov. 



I jiropose to snlistitute the above name for the genus called liy rae Di/ssckema 

 (Nov. ZooL. V. p. 10), which name has been already used by Hiibner. 



Of the type species goniata 2 ? ? were received from the Upper Aroa Eiver.

The ? only has been hitherto recognised. In the fine collection made by 

 A. S. Meek in the spring of 1903 on the Upper Aroa River, there are 4 c?<? and 

 1 ? ; the SS have sirajdc antennae, and the sjjccios must be transferred to 

 Actemc/iroma. A comparison of the sexes also shows that it is only in the ? that
