a short oblique dash just before apex; a moderate, straight, 

 longitudinal dull ochreous or reddish atreali above middle,, 

 from base direct to projection of second fascia, attenuated an- 

 teriorly and dilated posteriorly ; a similar streak along fold ; 

 veins towards termen outlined in similar color ; a moderately 

 clear streak of ground color before termen; a few blackish, 

 scales along termen ; cilia greyish, with a well-defined row of 

 black spots at base and a fuscous subterminal line. Hind- 

 wings with termen rounded, faintly sinuate below apex ; very 

 pale ochreous, becoming broadly light fuscous around termen, 

 but leaving a moderate streak of ground color along tennen ; 

 cilia light greyish-ochreous, with a fuscous basal line. 



Allied to the preceding but easily distinguished by the 

 longitudinal streak, spotted cilia of forewings, palpi being 

 white beneath and the pale ochreous hindwings. The streak 

 of ground color before termen on both wings is a curious cha- 

 racter ; this and the spotted cilia of forewings are better dis- 

 cerned beneath. 



Broken Hill, New South Wales ; nine specimens in July 

 and August. 



Eromene ocellea, Haw. 



I have recently captured specimens of this European species 

 at Broken Hill, New South Wales, in August, and have also 

 received specimens from Boeburne, Western Australia. Some 

 years ago I gave the late Mr. E. Guest, of Balhannali, South 

 Australia, a specimen of what I believe was this species, and 

 later Mr. Meyrick stated that he received a specimen from 

 that gentleman, who took it at Mount Lofty, S.A. How- 

 ever, there can be no doubt about the present specimens, and 

 it can now be added to the Australian fauna. 



TORTRICINA. 

 LOMASCHIZA, n. g. 



Thorax with dense bifid posterior crest. Antennae of male 

 serrate, very shortly ciliated at joints. Palpi very short, por- 

 rected, second joint triangularly scaled, terminal joint nearly 

 concealed. Forewings elongate, moderate, costa of male with 

 a swollen membranous ridge beyond middle ; termen obliquely 

 rounded; 7, 8, and 9 closely approximated at base, 7 to 

 termen, 2 from lower angle of cell, remote from 3 ; 3 and 4 

 closely approximated at base, 10 and 11 strongly curved. 11 

 running along lower edge of ridge. Hindwings broader than 

 forewings, costa strongly arched in middle, termen in male 

 strongly emarginate below apex (causing apex to appear very 

 prominent), and indented on vein 1 ; 6 and 7 somewhat ap- 

 proximated at base, 3 and 4 from a point. 5 approximated to 4
