PLASTINGIA. 



the submedian interspace larger and diffused. Hindwing pale ochreous, 

 but with a dark brown streak parallel and near to the costa from the base 

 to the outer margin, and the abdominal margin widely brown, the 

 ochreous portion of the wing coarsely striated with brown. Head and 

 thorax above clothed with long pale ochreous hairs, but with a line of dark 

 brown hairs running down the middle; abdomen dark brown above; 

 palpi, thorax, and abdomen pale ochreous beneath; antennae with the 

 shaft pale ochreous above, dark brown beneath, club pale ochreous 

 anteriorly, fuscous posteriorly. 



Expanse : <? 2-2 inches. 



Habitat : Arracan Coast, Burma. 



Described from a single specimen in Major C.T. Bingham's collection, 

 taken by him in February, 1886. It cannot be mistaken for the other 

 three species of the genus, H. irava, Moore, H. sybirita, Hewitson, or 

 H. staudingeri, Distant, all of which occur in the Malay Peninsula." (de 

 Niceville, I. c.)

"This genus has the upper and lower disco-cellular nervules of the 

 anterior wings almost subequal in length, thus agreeing with Erionota and 

 Gangara, but easily distinguished in a structural sense from those genera 

 by the position of the second median nervule of the anterior wings, which 

 has its base about three times as far apart from that of the lower as from 

 that of the upper median nervule. Another distinguishing character in 

 Plastingia is the position of the first subcostal nervule of the anterior wings, 

 which is emitted more nearly opposite the base of second than that of 

 lower median nervule." (Distant, I. c.}
