Two specimens of this very remarkable large form of 

 the genus Ypsolophus have reached me from Mr. J. M. 

 Hutchinson.

NOTHRIS, Hb. 

 [PL v., fig. 46.] 

 C^ Nothris bryophilella, sp. n. 



Antennce dull white, faintly annulated with fuscous. Palpi with 

 the second joint clothed with a long projecting tuft of loose hair- 

 like scales beneath ; white, a large black spot on the outer side of 

 the second joint, a very small black spot at the base, and a black 

 band around the middle of the slender apical joint. Head and 

 Thorax dull white. Fore wings dull white, speckled and blotched 

 with brown ; the basal third is irrorated with brown scales, a small 

 fuscous spot near the costa towards the base ; immediately beyond 

 the basal third is a large reniform greyish fuscous spot, having the 

 appearance of two roundish contiguous spots, the one reaching 

 over the fold, the other, about the same size, above it ; beyond this 

 is a transverse ill-defined band of brown about the middle of the 

 wing, starting from the costal but not attaining to the dorsal mar- 

 gin, wider towards its upper end; this band is followed by another 

 greyish fuscous rounded spot, larger than either of the other two, 

 and lying on the end of the cell ; this spot is followed by another 

 large brown patch, occupying the whole apical portion of the wing
