basial segment. Legs whitish-fuscous, tibiae and tarsi dark 

 fuscous, suffusedly banded with whitish. Forewings elongate, 

 dilated posteriorly, costa gently arched, termen faintly waved, 

 oblique ; cinereous-grey ; markings black, rather obscure ; first 

 close to base, with two acute angulations below costa, thence 

 curved around and ending on innermargin at one-sixth ; a simi- 

 lar line, from costa at one-third to innermlargin at one- 

 third ; a faint blackish-edged whitish spot below costa beyond, 

 indicating orbicular ; reniforai large outlined with fine black 

 line, and filled in with cinereous-grey ; second line from costa 

 before reniform, thence along upper edge of same, and thence 

 very strongly curved outwards to considerably beyond, and 

 again returning to lower edge of reniform, thence sinuate in- 

 wards, finally ending on innennargin at four-fifths ; subter- 

 minal obscure, waved, hardly traceable ; a. waved line along 

 termen ; cilia ashy-grey-fuscous. Hindwings with termen 

 faintly waved, rounded ; dull' white ; a faint fuscous band along 

 termen; cilia white. Underside) of forewings silvery- whitish 

 without markings. 



Allied to the preceding, but the angulated first and median 

 lines and almost unicolorous hindwings are good distinctive 

 points.

Prorocopis leucocrossa, n. sp. 

 Male, 28 mm. Head, palpi, antenuce, and thorax cinereous- 

 grey, palpi whitish beneath. Legs whitish, tibiae and tarsi fus- 

 cous, obscurely banded wftli whitish. Abdomen ochreous-fus- 

 cous. Forewings elongate, moderately dilated posteriorly; 

 termen waved, obliquely rounded ; lines black, fairly well de- 

 fined ; a short outwards line at one-sixth of costa ; first line 

 moderately and evenly curved outwards, with a slight projec- 

 tion above middle ; median line indistinct, only noticeable on 

 costa ; second line and reniform spot formed as in adelopis ; 

 a very pale whitish transverse streak from costa at five-sixths 

 to more than two-thirds across wing; subterminal obscure, 

 fuscous, just beyond ; a waved black line along termen ; cilia 

 cinereous-grey, with fuscous streaks at extremities of veins. 

 Hindwings with termen gently waved ; whitish-fuscous, pos- 

 terior half of wing fuscous, deeper along termen ; cilia white. 



Very close to the previous species, but differs in shape and 

 form of lines, and absence of crests.
