oblique, slightly sinuate ; dark -fuscous irrorated with dull 

 orange-oclireous , a transverse, slightly wavy, bluish-metallic line 

 from cOvSta at one-fourth to inner margin at one-third ; an 

 irregularly curved bluish-metallic line from costa at three-fifths 

 obliquely outwards, decribing a U curve in apical part of disc, 

 and joining a short outwardly oblique similarly coloured line in 

 middle of disc at five-sixths ; a straight erect metallic line from 

 inner-margin at two-thirds not reaching middle of disc ; around 

 this line is a dark-fuscous blotch ; several fuscous and ochreous- 

 orange areas in disc ; cilia fuscous, apices whitish. Hindwings 

 dark-fuscous ; disc irregularly blotched and irrorated with dull- 

 orange ; cilia fuscous, with a pale basal line, and whitish apices. 

 Brisbane ; one specimen.

Brisbane ; two specimens in September. 



EUPSELIA BEATELLA, Walk. 



Female, 14 mm. Head, palpi, and thorax fuscous, linely 

 irrorated with whitish scales. Antennae fuscous. Abdomen 

 dark-fuscous, irrorated with yellow scales, forming obscure annula- 

 tions. Legs pale-fuscous, reddish-tinged ; posterior pair yellowish. 

 Forewings oblong, posteriorly dilated ; costa gently arched ; apex 

 rounded ; hindmargin obliquely rounded ; fuscous irrorated with 

 whitish scales, which tend to be arranged in transverse lines ; the 

 absence of these leaves a fuscous blotch on middle of inner- 

 margin, sharply defined anteriorly, suffused posteriorly ; a much 

 larger, more ill-defined blotch, roundish, reaching from costa at 

 three-fourths to anal angle ; between the two blotches three 

 incomplete fine transverse metallic lines are visible on oblique 

 illumination ; two small metallic spots between second blotch and 

 apex ; four or five black dots on lower half of hindmargin ; cilia 

 fuscous with a metallic basal line. Hindwings deep yellow, with 

 a broad dark -fuscous hindmarginal band, produced along inner- 

 margin to base ; cilia fuscous with paler basal and median lines. 



I have redescribed this species, Walker's description being 

 insufficient and inaccurate. Unfortunately Meyrick was misled 

 thereby into describing E. carpocapsella as this species (Proc. 

 Linn. Soc. N.S.W., vol. V., p. 219). This is rectified in an 

 appendix (ibid., vol VII., p. 184). From E. carpocapsella it is 

 distinguishable by the absence of transverse lines from costa, the
