EUPITIIECIA. 115 



across the basal fifth anguhited within the cell and arched below it; oval costal and sub- 

 costal spots, contiuucd by a straight transverse stripe to inner margin immediately beyond 

 the subbasal line ; two faintly indicated central lines enclosing the discoeellular spot ; a 

 discal stripe formed almost exactly as in E. lar'iciata and followed by a feebly indicated 

 slender line across the disc and an interrupted submarginal stripe ; a very slender interrupted 

 marginal blackish line ; fringe traversed by a brown stripe : secondaries witli the costal third 

 sericeous white ; seven brownish, more or less angulated stripes, abbreviated on basal half, 

 the basal one and the sixtli linear, the seventh witli zigzag outer edge ; margin and fringe as 

 in the primaries ; a dark brown discoeellular spot : body greyish brown. Under surface silvery 

 greyish white : markings ill-defined. Expanse of wings 22 millim. 

 Dharmsala. 



Enpithecia lucipra. (Plate CXXXVII. fig. 11.) 



Apparently nearest to E. irriguata of Europe : primaries lilaeine grey ; a broad sordid 

 white longitudinal sinuous band commencing below the eosta at base of inner margin and 

 passing through the cell to the centre of the disc and then upwards to the costal margin, so 

 as to enclose a semicircular costal patch, at the bottom of which is a large black discoeellular 

 sjDot ; five or six ill-defined parallel dusky lines across the wing, slightly interrupting the 

 white band ; a slender black marginal line interrupted at the extremities of the veins and 

 followed by a slender whitish line at the base of the fringe ; a white spot near external angle : 

 secondaries silver-grey, traversed by about six slightly darker stripes : meso- and metathorax 

 whitish ; remainder of body above blackish. Under surface silver greyish ; markings very 

 ill-defined. Expanse of wings 21 millim.

Eupithecia hockingii. (Plate CXXXVII. fig. 12.) 



Aspect of E. centaureata : primaries sericeous, sordid white, irrorated with greyish 

 brown; basal sixth greyish brown edged with black ; an undulated ill-defined greyish-brown

 quadrate, dark brown ; posterior extremity pale brown ; lines of the band double, the outer 

 lines brown and ill-defined, the inner ones black, the lines forming the inner edge of the 

 band angulated, those of the outer edge angulated towards costa, undulated from third median 

 branch to inner margin ; a narrower ill-defined irregular band, commencing in a blackish 

 quadrate costal spot, halfway between the central band and the outer margin ; outer border 

 greyish brown, the interval between it and the discal band occupied towards apex and external 

 angle by one or two black-bordered white spots ; fringe spotted with grey and traversed by a 

 blackish line : secondaries shining white, the female with a blackish dot at the anterior angle 

 of the discoidal cell and an imperfect series of grey lunules ; external border very pale grcyisii,
