Nenration : forewing, cell longer than half of wing ; discocelliilar vertically 

 bi-coucave ; first median just be_vond one-half, second close before third ; radials 

 normal ; 7, 8, 9 stalked from a little before ead of cell ; 10, 11 free ; hindwing, 

 costal and subcostal ajiproximated for one-half of cell ; veins 3 and 7 from before 

 ends of cell. 



Type : Tolmcra nlbibasalis spec. nov. 



The genns is related to Scioiwmia and Arctoscdia ; in the large ronnd fovea it 

 agrees with the former, but is separated from both by the pectinated antennae of

Foveiving : yellowish ochreous, speckled and snfTiised with fuscous, sometimes

 median fold, passing just outside the fovea ; outer line sinuous, from two-thirds of 

 costa to three-fourths of inner margin, strongly incurved on submedian fold towards 

 first line ; this is followed shortly by a parallel, less distinct, ochreous yellowish 

 line before a broad fuscous fascia formed of contiguous oblong blotches edged 

 outwardly by an irregularly lunnlate pale submarginal line; all the veins yellowish; 

 vein 6 broadly so across the fuscous ftiscia, joining a i)alc oblique apical blotch, 

 below which the marginal area is darker; cell-spot large, blackish, round; marginal 

 spots large, black, triangular ; fringe ycllowisli, mottled with darker beyond the 

 veins ; at base of wing below the costa is a crescentic silvery white spot running 

 into the cell. 



Hindwiiig : shining ochreous, mottled and tinged with grey ; a dark curved

 cross-lines, more or less parallel to one another ; the first at one-fourth, the second 

 median tonching the black cell-spot, the third at two-thirds ; this is followed by

 these are almost wholly black), and ()bli(juely above them on vein (i a slight dark
