Allied to octomaciilanay Dbld., some varieties of whicli it 

 greatly resembles in pattern and colour; hut it is a much 

 smaller insect, and, so far as one can jud^e from the 

 possession of only four specimens, is more consistent in its 

 markings. 



I name this species after the Rev. Canon Tristram, who 

 nearly thirty years ago greatly encouraged my early studies 

 of the Microlepidoptera by giving me numerous specimens 

 from Palestine, including the species described by the late 

 JI. T. Stainton.

.4 ntenncB, palpf, and head pale brownish cinereous. Thorax 

 brownish fuscous. Fore wings pale brownish cinereous, with 

 a brownish fuscous basal patch extending to one-third, 

 angulated outward a little above the fold and inward on the 

 fold itself, this jiatch is slightly mottled with the paler 

 ground-colour, a few darker fuscous scales being scattered 

 along its margin ; across the middle of the wing a slightly 

 oblique brownish fuscous fascia reaches the dorsum before the 

 tornus, its outer edge is also slightly angulated outward about 

 the middle, but it is not connected with a somewhat trian- 

 gular costal patch of the same colour before the apex, the 

 intermediate space between these dark markings being very 

 thinly bestrewn or reticulated with brownish fuscous scales, 

 becoming somewhat confluent only a little before the middle 

 of the termen ; cilia brownish grey, a rather darker line alono- 

 their base. Exp. al. 14- 16 nun. llind wings brownish grev ; 

 cilia the same, with a darker shade-line running throu"-h 

 them near their basf, which is rather paler than their outer 

 half. Abdomen and legs brownish cinereous.

This species greatly resembles in appearance dark specimens 

 of Isotrias hybriduna, Hb., and especially the variety (?) 

 known as castiliana, Kag. ; but from this it can at once be 

 separated by the neuration of the liind wings, in which veins
