tarsi white with four black bands. Fore-wings deep ochreous- 

 grey, with two strait fascia) and four spots snow-white, black 

 margined ; base narrowly white ; first fascia broad, dilating from 

 costa to inner margin, outer edge irregular ; second much najrower 

 broadest on inner-margin, slightly cblique outwardly ; a small 

 costal spot at and a rather larger one somewhat beyond it on 

 inner margin, nearly meeting ; a smaller costal spot immediately 

 before apex, produced by black scales obliquely to hind-margin ; 

 a rather large ovate apical spot, extending into cilia ; cilia greyish- 

 ochreous beneath apex, with a black line, thence fuscous-grey. 

 Hind-wings fuscous-grey, cilia paler. 



Very close to the preceding species, but the basal joint of 

 antennae is black above, and the third fascia is always represented 

 by two not very unequal opposite spots. The Indian terminalia, 

 Stt., belongs to this group, but the third fascia is represented by 

 a costal spot only ; it was bred from Terminalia catappa. The 

 imago of canotheta is retired in habits, and I have only once taken 

 it ; I bred several from the larvae, which are not uncommon ; I 

 have only found the species at Blackheath on the summit of the 

 Blue Mountains, 3,500 feet above the sea. 



Larva yellowish, (undescribed) ; feeds in a large irregular 

 whitish blotch in upper surface of leaves of Telopea speciosissima 

 (ProteaceaJ, the well-known " Waratah" ; the mine is at first flat 

 but later the upper epidermis contracts and causes the formation 

 of a hollow chamber, somewhat similar to the mines of the genus 

 Lithocolletis, but much larger in proportion. Pupa in an ochreous 

 cocoon, outside the mine.
