54 LITHOSIID^.— AECTIID^. 



Schistophleps bipuncta. (Plate CXL. fig. 23.) 



Expanse | inch. 



Male. Wings almost transparent and slightly ochreous. Fore wing with a very 

 indistinct basal ochreous band ; a more distinct baud one fourth from base, followed by a 

 black spot in the cell ; a band across the end of the cell and extending beyond it, somewhat 

 narrow at costa^ widening much on the disk, and contracting a little at inner margin ; a small 

 black longitudinal streak in the band at end of cell ; a submargiual broken ochreous band 

 reaching the outer margin near the angle ; a series of ochreous antecilial spots. 



In some specimens the markings have a tendency to become brown, especially on the 

 disc. Hind wing hyaline, immaculate. Antennae, head, thorax, and abdomen white. 



ABCTIID^. 



Phragmatobia ? fumipeunis. (Plate CXL. fig. 24.) 



Expanse \^ inch. 



Male. Antennae short, black, and closely bipectinated. Fore wing smoky brown; base 

 and costa olive-brown. Hind wing entirely smoky brown. Palpi black ; head and thorax 

 olive-brown ; abdomen ringed with smoky and olive-brown, the latter colour predominating 

 on the anal segments. Underside uniform smoky black. 



The pectinated antennae separate this species from typical Phragmatobia. 



Aloa collaris. (Plate CXL. fig. 18.) 



Expanse 1§-1 j.^ inch. 



Male and female. White : fore wing with a broad vivid scarlet band along the costa ; 

 two small black spots on the subcostal and median nervures at the termination of the cell ; 

 two just above the submedian nervure, one one-third, the other two-thirds from the base; any 

 or all of these spots may, however, be absent. Hind wing with a large lunulate black spot 

 at the end of the cell, and four at regular intervals along the outer margin ; the apical one 

 being absent m. some specimens. Underside of hind wing with a black spot on the costa near 

 the base. Antennae black ; palpi black above, red below ; head white, with a broad red baud 

 at junction with thorax ; collar white, with a broad red band posteriorly. Abdomen red above, 

 with sides black and broad segmental black bands, a large black patch on the anal segment ; 

 white below, with a few black spots and markings. Legs : coxae and femora red in front, 

 white behind ; tibiae black in front, red behind ; tarsi ringed black and white. 



The males of this genus have the hook for the frenulum large and black. 

 The broad red bands on head and collar distinguish this species from the other species 

 with red abdomens.
