blackish line ; a ferruginous line across each wing, that of 

 primaries at basal third angulated, that of secondaries just 

 beyond the cell and nearly straight ; primaries with blackish 

 discocellular dot. Expanse of wings 1 inch 3 lines. 



E. arenosa, a variety of E. strenioides, and the male of E. 

 leda have been sent from Yokohama by Mr. Pryer. 



56. Hyperythra stulta, n. sp. (no. 364). 



Sordid stramineous ; external and internal areas of the wings 

 shining, pearly ; a dull testaceous nebula near the external 

 angle of primaries ; secondaries with a discocellular spot and 

 numerous short strias grey : body duller and more sordid than 

 the wings, the tegulee and main stem of antennae whitish. 

 Under surface sulphur-yellow, the wings sparsely sprinkled 

 with little grey striations ; discocellulars of primaries covered 

 by a grey-bordered white litura, a diffused transverse abbre- 

 viated grey streak crossing the median branches almost to the 

 inner margin ; secondaries with a small 8-shaped grey disco- 

 cellular marking : body sordid. Expanse of wings 1 inch 

 3 lines. 



57. Angerona m'grisparsa, n. sp. (no. 373). 



Clear ochre-yellow, the wings sprinkled with circular black

 antennas with brown pectinations ; abdomen greyish : under 

 surface paler, but otherwise as above. Expanse of wings

Nearly allied to N. resistaria of North America, much 

 larger, paler, and with more numerous lines across the wings. 

 Above cream-coloured, the body and bases of wings yellowish : 

 primaries crossed by three nearly parallel angulated dark 

 greyish-brown lines, a broad patch of the same colour at ex- 

 ternal angle ; the discocellulars, the nervules, outer margin, 

 and a number of fine short strias upon the basal, costal, internal, 

 and discal areas dark greyish brown : secondaries with the 

 external two fifths, two central lines (the outer one angulated), 

 the veins, and a number of speckles upon the abdominal area 

 dark greyish brown : antennas greyish. Under surface chalky 

 white ; the wings with two slender central lines, the discocel- 

 lulars, a few scattered striations, the margin, and tips of fringe 

 greyish brown ; primaries with an abbreviated line across the 

 middle of the cell, and a little patch near external angle, also 

 greyish brown. Expanse of wings 1 inch 2 lines.
