 forming irregular pairs of spots, separated by ochreous vein- 

 ends. Hind wing not very broad, apex very slightly pro- 

 duced, termen faintly waved; pale sandy ochreous, somewliat

 side without the ochreous colour, the markings somewhat 

 blurred, greyish fuscous; fore wing with basal area suffused 

 as far as antemedian : postmcdian followed by a white band, 

 to which succeeds a fuscous submarginal band in anterior 

 half of wing, becoming a mere line in ])osterior lialf ; hitul 

 wing similar, l)ut with no basal suffusion ; a small l)ui dis-

 The exact relationship of this species is unascertained, 

 but it certainly belongs in a general sense to Euphyia (type, 

 picata, Iliib.j. The antennal ciliation is even shorter than 

 in the type species, the jialpus perhaps slightly shorter, but 

 most points of structure agree perfectly. 



Warkkma, gen. nov. 

 {Bracfii/meria, \\'iiir. MS., nee Westw. 1842.) 



Face rounded, apparently without tuft *. Palpus very short, 

 porrect. Antenna in (^ lannllate, with fine pubescence, 

 nearly simjilc. Fore wing with cell hss than one-half (in 

 the type sjxcies scarcely two-fifths), areole doul)le, both 

 amjjle, i>(.' ' from well before apex of areole. Hind wing with 

 cell short (about one-third), discocellulars straight and 

 oblique, R- from centre.
