462 Lord Walsingham on Asiatic Tortricidai. 



6 and 7 are not remote at origin as in Isotrias. In castiliana 

 the costal mark before the apex is produced downward and 

 usually reaches the termen above the tornus, whereas in 

 larharana it does not extend downward even so far as the 

 middle of the wing-width, and is separated from the slight 

 ante-marginal shade which sometimes occurs below it. It 

 closely approaches Tortrix minuscuJana, 'L. -\- incertana, Tr,, 

 in size and markings, but the absence throughout my series 

 of the marked projection on the outer edge of the basal patch 

 which occurs in every one of the very numerous specimens in 

 the Zeller collection serves to distinguish it ; it has, moreover, 

 shorter and more obtuse fore wings. 



DOLOPLOCA, Hb. 



789 (2). Doloploca lineata, sp. n. 



Antennce brownish cinereous. Palpi and head pale brownish 

 cinereous. Thorax brownish cinereous. Fore wings with 

 the apex rounded, the termen much more oblique than is 

 usual in the Cneiihasia ^xow^ o£ Tortrix; brownish cinereous, 

 with scattered dusting of slightly raised blackish scale-spots, 

 especially on the outer half; a faintly indicated reddish- 

 brown band arises from the dorsum before the tornus, and 

 reaches to the upper angle of the cell, but does not attain to 

 thecosta; this is preceded and followed in some specimens 

 by detached patches of faint mottling of the same colour; the 

 veins throughout the wing are indicated by slightly paler 

 lines, the cilia corresponding in colour with these, but having 

 a clear slender reduplicated line running through them around 

 the apex and termen. Exp. al. 20 mm. Hind wings brownish 

 grey ; cilia rather paler, with a reduplicated brownish grey 

 shade-line running through them ; the lines are much wider 

 than those in the cilia of the fore wings. Abdomen brownish 

 cinereous. Legs pale cinereous.

Hab. Palestine {Tristram) . Four specimens. 



I can find nothing described which corresponds to the 

 unusual shape and colouring of this species. It is much 

 smaller than the two known species of Doloploca, but in form 

 and structure it agrees better with this genus than with the 

 Cnephasia group of Tortrix.
