208 DESCRIPTIONS OF AUSTRALIAN MICRO-LEPIDOPTERA, 



dark fuscous streak ; from its lower edge beyond middle are 

 indications only of commencement of two other branches ; between 

 median streak and costa are two elongate, white streaks, starting 

 in confluence from a point just beyond middle, becoming wider, 

 and running near-together to hind-margin ; a hind-marginal row 

 of seven black dots, alternating with the white streaks ; cilia 

 fuscous-grey, base and tips suffused with whitish. Hind-wings 

 white, apex infuscated, hind-marginal line dark fuscous, 

 interrupted ; cilia white, with fuscous parting-line, only distinct 

 round apex. 



One female on the Parramatta Eiver, in December. This hardly 

 appears to be a true Chilo, but the female shows no generic point of 

 difference, except in the more rounded wings, and abnormal 

 crambideous markings ; possibly the male may possess more 

 definite characters. 



CKAMBID^E. 



ANCYLOLOMIA, Jib.

 porrected ; maxillary palpi triangular, appressed. No tongue. 

 Antennse in male, dentate or pectinated ; in female simple. Fore- 

 wings with hind-margin broadly sinuate beneath apex ; marked 

 with metallic lines between the veins, and with usually three

Distinguished from allied genera by the shape and markings 

 of fore-wings.
