6. Homospora lymantriodes spec. nov. 



cJ, S.") mm. Strnctnre as in the type species (j'hodoscopa Lower), bnt SC of 

 forewing anastomosing at a point with C, R- of hindwing more strongly approxi- 

 mated at its origin to R' ; wing slightly broader (less elongate) than in the only 

 example of rhodoscopa before me. Head, body, and legs concolorons with wings, 

 only the abdomen dorsally with bright golden-brown patch on basal segments, as 

 in the type species. 



Foreiring very light, whitish l)rown with a tinge of fawn-colour, the costal 

 edge with some small fuscous dots ; two lines and central shade strongly expressed, 

 fuscous ; first line from before one-third costa to one-third hind-margin rather 

 thick, excurved in cell, somewhat inangled on M and SM- ; median shade thick, 

 placed very near second line ; second line from three-fourths costa to near tornns, 

 dentate outwards on all the veins, and very faintly incurved from R' to R^ and 



from M' to SM-. Hindwing whiter, with a weak postmedian line, accentuated 



by darker vein-spots, a vague fawn-tinged band proximal to it and some shading 

 at apex. 



Forewing beneath with first line obsolete, median shade faint, postmedian 

 moderately developed ; hindwing beneath not whiter than forewing.

Texture and coloration somewhat recall some Lymantriids. 



7. Onycodes leptoctenopsis spec. nov. 



S, 30 mm. Face crimson, mi.xed with fuscous, narrowly edged with fulvous 

 beneath. Palpus fulvous, mixed with crimson. Vertex and antennal shaft bright 

 fnlvous or reddish fulvous. Thorax and abdomen concolorous with wings ; pectus 

 and forecoxa somewhat hairy. Fore- and niidfemnr and midtibia mixed with

Wings fulvous-brown, with sparse dark dots and strigulae. Fore/ring 



with costal edge narrowly bright fulvous, narrowly followed from base to perhaps 

 one-fourth by a delicate pinkish shade ; two small purplish-fuscous marks on costa, 

 much as in tmumataria, the first at two-fifths, somewhat rhomboidal, the second 

 (a flattened triangle) midway between this and apex; a purjilo-fuscous line, oblique 

 and sligiitly curved, from close before apex towards middle of posterior margin, 

 closely accomjianied proximally by a ferruginous brown line, which runs to the 

 middle of the po.sterior margin and is continued (more overlaid with pnrplisli) 

 on the hindwing ; some apical markings similar to those of t ni umataria, some 

 ferruginous to fuscous wedges distally to the obli([ue line between the radials and 

 anteriorly; fringe sliglitly darkened with ferruginona, pnrpllsli-i'uscons at apex. 

 Ilinilicimj without markings, cxcejit the line.
