Syntomis albapex. (Plate CLVII. fig. 1.) 



Expanse 1^ inch. 



Male. Cupreous brown. Fore wing with a small transparent spot in the middle of the 

 cell, almost obsolete on the upperside ; a larger elongated ochreous spot below it in the 

 iutenio-median interspace ; a rounded spot between first and second median nervules near their 

 origin; cilia just below the apex pure white. Hind wing with an elongate ochreous spot 

 from below the cell to near centre of inner margin, and a smaller spot between first and 

 second median nervules near their origin. Extremities of antennae white ; vertex of head, 

 collar, first and fifth abdominal segments, orange ; proximal ends of tarsi white. 



It is not closely allied to any described species, but belongs to the S. alhiplaga group, 

 which has the fore wing broad with short inner margin. 



ZYG^NID^E. 



ZYGJENINM. 

 DENDROCERA, g. n. 



Antennse with short pectinations in the male, which stand out almost horizontally to the 

 shaft, and again have secondary branches on each side ; antennae of female simple. Palpi 

 slight and upturned. Fore wing broad ; apex and outer margin rounded ; inner margin 

 short; costal nervure short ; the first subcostal given ofl^ some way before the end of the cell ; 

 the second, third, fourth, and upper radial arising separately close to the upper angle ; the lower 

 radial and second and third medians close to the lower angle ; the first median from before 

 the angle ; an intcrno-median ; the submedian forked near base. Hind wing broad, the apex 

 and outer margin rounded ; the subcostal sends a spur to the costal near the base ; a 

 single subcostal from the upper angle; the discocellulars angled; the radial and two median 

 branches from near the lower angle of cell ; the first median from before the angle ; interno- 

 mediau, submedian, and internal nervures. A tibial spur to fore leg, and paired terminal 

 spurs on tibiae of mid and hiud legs. 



Dendrocera quadripuncta. (Plate CLVII. fig. 2.)

Male and Female. Very dark brown ; fore wing with two subbasal obliquely superposed 

 ochreous spots, one towards middle of cell, the other nearer the base in interno-median 

 interspace ; two similar superposed spots beyond upper and lower ends of cell, the lower 

 one slightly nearer the outer margin.
