Khasia Hills. In B. M. 



At page 162 of this vol. by mistake I described the female 

 of this insect as the female of A. curiosulis, but I iiave found 

 both sexes of this form from the Khasia Hills in the B. M., 

 the antennae of the male differing from the antennae of 

 curiosulis, with large scale-tooth on outer side just beyond 

 basal joint, the shaft then curved, with small scale-tufts on 

 the joints and fascicles of cilia ; at one fourth from base the 

 shaft is dilated into a large knot. 



There is also an example in the B. M. from Western China 

 (Leech Coll.). 



Family Hypenidge. 



Bomolocha obductalis. 



Hypena obductalis, Walker, xvi. 56 (1858). 



Bomolocha obductalis, Swinh. Cat. Het. Mu3. Oxou. ii. p. 212 (1900). 

 Hypena vestita, Moore, Lep. Ceylon, iii. p. 221, pi. clxxvi. fig. 10 

 (1885). 



Khasia Hills ; fairly common. 



The type, marked " India,^' is in Mus. Oxon., the type of 

 vestita from Ceylon is in the B. M. ; they cannot be sepa- 

 rated. Jt is also in the B. M. from Sikkim. The allied form 

 eductalis, Hmpsn., the type of which from Sikkim is in Coll. 

 Elwes, is the commonest form in the Khasia Hills : flexaosa, 

 Moore, which Sir George Hampson puts as a synonym of 

 obductalis, is in my opinion quite distinct ; I have it from 

 Simla, Darjiling, and Kulu. 



Genus Anepa, nov. 



Palpi oblique ; third joint smooth, a little more than half 

 the length of the second : fore wing long and narrow, exca- 

 vated from apex to vein 4, where there is a rather prominent 

 angle; antennae ciliated and abdomen with dorsal tufts, as 

 in the genus Hypena, but the shape of the Avings and up- 

 turned palpi clearly separate it from that genus and all its 

 subdivisions.
