Epiplema inhians, sp. n. 



Of the same size and wing-outline as E. irrorata, Moore, 

 but with very different distinct markings. Fore wings 

 ochreous, with numerous transverse fuscous striae ; first line 

 at one fourth, oblique, wavy, dark, with tawny edging, fol- 

 lowed by a dark blotch on costa ; second line from another 

 dark blotch in the middle of costa runs obliquely outwards to 

 below the middle of wing, then is curved inwards to inner 

 margin just beyond middle, describing a very prominent acute 

 projection in the middle ; the whole wing basewards of this 

 line suffused with dark grey, mottled with lighter and with 

 tawny ; marginal space from apex to second angle filled in 

 with olive tawny, edged inwardly by a wavy blackish line, 

 followed above the anal angle by two lunate marks, the upper 

 one smaller and surrounded by whitish scaling, the lower 

 larger and darker; between these and the exterior line is a 

 narrow shade from the costa, angulated opposite the angula- 

 tion of the exterior line and incurved below parallel to it ; 

 fringes tawny, mottled with blackish at the three angular 

 projections ; cell-spot linear, whitish. Hind wings darker, 

 more mottled, with the exterior line reproduced ; a long white 

 scaleless mark in the cell ; marginal space irregularly mottled, 

 with a narrow dark wavy margin, which towards anal angle 

 is edged with white ; fringe tawny. Head, thorax, and 

 abdomen mottled dark grey. Underside of fore wings 

 brownish grey, with indistinct frecklings ; of hind wings 

 whitish, with blackish frecklings.

 dark grey, edged with blackish and tawny ; the inner edge 

 irregular and strongly inangulated in middle ; the outer

 extreme apex, below which are four black spots, the second 

 horizontal, forming a line to another tawny less distinct patch 

 in middle of hind margin. Hind wings white, more or less 

 suffused with ochreous, with a broad dull central fascia with 

 wavy darker edges and some tawny patches along the upper 

 part of hind margin, edged inwardly with black curves.
