endemic developments. The four species before rao, while all cliariicterised liy 

 enlargement and coloration of the discal stigma, are separable into two qnite distinct 

 groups. That for which I propose the name Pauresthes seems most nearly related 

 to Anisogamia metaspila and its allies. As in those species, the margins of both 

 wings are crennlate and the wings themselves semitransparent, thongh not to the 

 same extent. In P. caniohi. which I make tlie type, the cells are shorter than 

 half the wing and vein G of forewing is stalked with T ; in the other the cells are 

 longer. 



34. Pauresthes caniola spec. nov. 



Foreicincj : dark green, thinly scaled, dusted with very fine bluish white 

 scales ; costal edge yellow throughout ; the two transverse lines dentate-lunulate, 

 only marked by the shade of deeper green following the first and preceding the 

 second ; the first from costa near base to one-third of inner margin, obliquely 

 curved, and slightly indented on submedian fold ; outer line from three-fourths 

 of costa to two-thirds of inner margin, strongly dentate, and as deeply insinuate 

 between the teeth, especially on submedian fold, the teeth on veins 3 and 4 equally 

 ])roduced and forming a squarish projection ; fringe green ; cell-spot black, set in a 

 disc of hoary rufous grey scales, somewhat ditl'usely edged with a ring of olive-green 

 and blackish scales. 



Iliiidwing ; without first Hue ; the black cell-spot large and placed in a 

 pyriform disc of reddish-brown scales speckled with black. 



Underside whitish green, the markings only showing through ; costa of fore- 

 wing yellow ; fringes dark green. 



Palpi white below, greenish-tinged externally, the terminal segment greenish 

 fuscous, sometimes reddish-tinged ; face yellow-green above, whitish below ; fillet 

 and base of antennae white ; rest of antennae reddish ; vertex blue-green ; collar 

 whitish ; thorax and abdomen dark green, the latter with white dorsal spots ; 

 abdomen beneath and legs whitish ; forelegs in front and internally reddish. 



Expanse of wings : 40 mm. 



2 ? ?. 



Cell less than half of wing ; vein G of forewing stalked with 7 ; veins 6, 7 

 and 3, 4 of hindwing stalked. 



35. Pauresthes signifera spec. nov. 



Foiriving : sea-green, semidiaphanous ; the space between the two transverse 

 lines deeper green ; costal edge fuscous ; the lines faintly whitish ; first from 

 one-sixth of costa to one-third of inner margin, outcurved above and below 

 median vein ; second from three-fourths of costa to two-thirds of inner margin, 

 dentate-lnnulate, outcurved from costa to submedian fold, tlie teeth whiter on the 

 veins ; fringe green ; cell-spot irregularly lunate, brownish ochreous speckled with 

 black scales, the whole surrounded with white scales. 



Hindwing: similar, but the cell-mark much larger, ear-shaped and constricted 

 in the middle ; the outer line bent parallel to hindmargin. 



Underside whitish green, thi^ spots showing through. 



Face and palpi green above, white below ; fillet and antennae white ; vertex, 

 thorax, and abdomen dark green. Abdomen beneath and legs white. 



Expanse of wings : 2'.) mm.
