amongst the Tortricina : from the E pihlemidce themselves they 

 are easily distinguished by the smooth head and falciform 

 palpi : — 



Forewiiigs with 7 jnid 8 stalked Hijpcrtroplia.

Hypertropha, Meyr. 

 I have described two species of this genus, and Dr. Tur- 

 ner has added a third, which I have not seen; two more are 

 now given. The broad -winged tortrlciformis, with trans- 

 verse rows of raised metallic spots, is nearest in character to 

 Coproniorp/irf, and therefore probably earliest. 



liypertroplia zophodeatna, n. sp. 



Male, 16 mm. Head and thorax dark fuscous finely 

 sprinkled with whitish. Palpi whitish irrorated with dark fus- 

 cous. Antennae fuscous. Abdomen bronzy-fuscous. Fore- 

 wings moderate, costa mioderately arched, apex round- 

 pointed, termen concave, oblique ; dark fuscous finely irro- 

 rated with whitish, partially slightly pinkish-tinged; an in- 

 distinct spot of white suffusion in disc before middle ; a broad 

 Buffused blackish-fuscous fascia from § of costa to tornus : cilia 

 dark fuscous. Hindwings ochreous-yellow ; a narrow- rather 

 dark fuscous fascia along termen throughout, becoming broader 

 along dorsum ; cilia pale fuscous, with darker basal line. 



Victoria; one specimen, without further particulars 

 (Raynor). 



Hypertropfia rhothias, n. sp. 



Female, 16 mm. Head white. Palpi white, second joint 

 sprinkled with dark fuscous except towards apex. Antennae 

 white, ringed with dark fuscous. Thorax white, somewhat 

 sprinkled with fuscous. Forewings elongate, somewhat dilat- 

 ed, costa moderately arched, apex obtuse, termen slightly 

 sinuate, oblique ; blackish-fuscous, all scales narrowly tipped 

 with white : a white basal patch extending on dorsum to near 

 middle, and on costa to beyond middle, costal edge and five 

 direct costal strigulse fuscous ; beyond this a bright ferrugi- 

 nous dorsal mark, followed by two series of raised purplish- 

 golden-metallic spots terminated above by oblique edge of 

 basal patch : a transverse white dorsal spot before tornus, 

 narrowed upwards ; two posterior transverse series of raised 

 purplish-golden-metallic spots, first straight, not reaching 

 costa, second curved outwards in middle, between these a suf- 

 fused blackish discal patch ; a triangular orange-ferruginous 

 costal spot before apex, cut by a white oblique line from costa 

 to termen beneath apex : cilia purplish-fuscous with rows of 

 blackish points, with a subapical patch and bar below middle
