482 DESCRIPTIONS OF AUSTRALIAN MICRO-LEPIDOPTERA, 



fuscous irregularly dark-margined streak from before middle of 

 costa very obliquely to beneath apex of wing, where it is more or 

 less distinctly connected with the apex of an irregular three- 

 branched fuscous dark-margined mark near hindmargin some- 

 what above middle ; four small semi-oval dark fuscous spots on 

 apical half of costa ; the narrow space between these and the 

 oblique costal streak is suffused with brownish ; a narrow 

 irregularly sinuous fuscous dark-margined streak from inner 

 margin near base very obliquely outwards to middle of wing, 

 semicircularly concave below middle, its apex dilated into an 

 irregular spot ; below this streak and the three-branched spot the 

 inner and hindmargins are suffused with brownish ; an irregular 

 fuscous dark-margined spot above anal angle ; a fuscous dark- 

 margined streak along hindmargin : cilia greyish-brown or 

 ochreous-brown, with an indistinct dark grey interrupted line. 

 Hindwings light fuscous-grey, more whitish towards base, thickly 

 spotted with darker grey, costal tuft ochreous-fuscous ; cilia 

 whitish-grey, with a dark grey line near base. 



The largest Australian species of Tortricina, and peculiarly 

 marked with a rather fantastic irregularity. 



I took six specimens at light in Sydney during November, 

 December, and February ; and also one amongst thick scrub at 

 Eosewood, Queensland, in September. .(Vid. addenda).

Thorax smooth. Antenna) in male thickened or dentate,

 triangularly scaled, terminal joint distinct. Fore wings rather 

 broad, costa in male with a more or less perfect fold towards base, 

 arched before middle, in female more abruptly arched, often 

 rather sinuate, apex sometimes produced, hindmargin sinuate or 

 rounded. Hindwings rounded-trapezoidal, broader than fore-
