TINEID.^. 



Ctenocampa baliodes, Meyr. 



I have a female of this species taken near Melbourne, which 

 only differs from the male as follows : — 



Size 24 mm. Antennae filiform ; underside of both wings 

 spotted throughout with white, well defined ; in the male the 

 forewings are somewhat spotted below, but thei hindwings are 

 black above and below; the abdomen beneath is marked with 

 narrow white segmential rings, which, although developed in 

 the male, are more obscure!. An abnormality occurs in the 

 hindwing of the female by having vein 4 present, stalked with 

 5 ; the other wing is normal.
