and there by blackish points on tlie iiPrvures ; a sinuous discal line, conspicuously spotted 

 «ith black on the primaries, excepting between the median branches; a submarginal series 

 of minute black dots ; fringe with a pale basal line, central and tei-minal grey lines : primaries 

 with an oblique line, spotted with black on the veins, across the basal fourth ; this and the 

 two lines of the central band commencing in oblique blackish costal dashes; external area 

 slightly darker tlian the prevailing ground-colour and irrorated with blackish atoms : 

 secondaries with pale costal area ; the whole surface irrorated sparsely witli blackish and 

 grey atoms : head and antenna pale buff, palpi black ; thorax tinted with ash-grey. Under 

 surface sericeous straw-yellow ; the lines of the upper surface represented by series of blackish 

 spots, excepting the inner line of the central band, which is obsolete on the primaries, but 

 represented by a mottled grey stripe on the secondaries ; the irroration of the wings more 

 prominent than above : pectus speckled with black ; abdomen with a lateral series of l)lack 

 spots. Expanse of wings 54 millim.

The form of the wings in this species is identical with that of Tetrads, but the colouring 

 of the wings much more nearly resembles Zethen'ui ; from what remains of the palpi the 

 species would seem not to be a typical Tetrads, but until more examples are obtained it 

 would be premature to separate it geuerically. 



Psyra tlehUis of Warren must be placed next to T. i%dica, from which it princijially differs 

 in its straw-coloured wings and inferior size; neither of them correspond strictly with Psijra 

 in the angulation of their wings. 



PSEUDOMIZA, gen. nov. 



Form of wings as in Cimicodes [C. torquataria) ; antenna; of the male varying from the 

 ciliated to the pectinated type, as in that genus ; but the palpi angulatcd, with naked terminal 

 joint : the primaries with the second and third median branches much wider apart at their 

 origins. 



Nearly allied to Omha -. the antennse less strongly pectinated : the primaries much more 

 acute, the costa less convex or even sinuous, the furca of the subcostal vein much shorter ; 

 the outer margin more convex : the secondaries wider, with the second and third median 

 branches nearer together at their origins. Type P. castanearia. 



This genus will contain E/lojjia formosa and li. pnlrhra, Cimicodes sanffuijiua, C. flava, 

 ('. cruenturia, C. custaneuria, and perhaps Ennomos spiluteluria. 



Pseudomiza argillacea. (Plate CXXXY. fig. 15.) 



Clear oeliiaceous clay-coloured irrorated with black atoms ; a straight ol)li(|ue ferruginous 

 line, bordered internally by a pale pink sericeous stripe, from apex of primaries to just beyond 

 the middle of the abdominal margin of secondaries ; outer border rosy lilacine ; fringes ferru- 

 ginous, edged with ochrcous in tlie primaries ; costal border of primaries deep dull orange, the
