Genus Hedylepta, Meyr. 



Hedylepta confusalis, sp. n. 



Wings clingy fuscous, with the lines indistinct, darker ; 

 basal line at one fourth, vertical, exterior line at three fourths, 

 vertically wavy as far as the first median, along which it runs 

 inwards, and reaches the inner margin at two thirds ; discal 

 spot lunular, more distinct ; fringes concolorous, with a 

 narrow pale basal line, before which the extreme hind margin 

 is darker : hind wings the same, but slightly paler ; the fringe 

 whitish in apical half. Head, thorax, and abdomen all 

 fuscous. Underside dull greyish fuscous. 



Expanse of wings 34 millim. 



Two males from Japan. 



A very dull-looking and inconspicuous insect, with the 

 markings as in tristrialts, Bremer, with which it agrees in 

 size. 



Hedylepta ochrifuscalis^ sp. n. 



Nearest to prceteritalis^ Wlk., and misera, Butler, but 

 rather larger, and with a strong tinge of fulvous ochreous, 

 thereby appearing much paler than either of the above-

 costa, hind and inner margins of the fore wings, and on the 

 thorax and abdomen ; the hind wings remain greyer. Fringe 

 of fore wings concolorous, with a thick dark line along their 

 base and a narrower dark line before the base along the hind 

 margin ; fringe of hind wings dull whitish, with the same 

 lines. Underside duller, with basal two thirds of both wings 

 rather darker but diffusely edged. 



Expanse of wings 32 millim. 



Several from the Khasia Hills.

 slightly so again towards apex, which is blunt and rounded ; 

 hind margin obliquely curved, with a slight bend in the 

 middle; anal angle obtuse. Hind wings with both angles 

 rounded ; hind margin curved and slightly bulging in middle. 

 Antennae ( S ) lamellate, the basal joint rather swollen ; ocelli 

 not visible j tongue present ; labial palpi short, straight,
