cellular spot ; a white dentate-sinuate discal line ; an inter- 

 rupted blackish marginal line : secondaries rather paler than 

 primaries, with faint indications of two arched grey discal 

 lines : head white, antennas brown ; thorax brown, with white 

 fringes to the tegulse ; abdomen white, with blackish dorsal 

 dots or transverse lines. Under surface whitish ; the wings 

 slightly grey to beyond the middle, where this colour is limited 

 by an angulated dusky stripe ; blackish discocellular spots. 

 Expanse of wings 1 inch 4 lines. 



88. Larentia inamoena, n. sp. (no. 541). 



Primaries white, crossed by numerous irregular dark brown 

 lines ; some of these are united by having their interspaces 

 filled in with slightly paler brown, so as to produce three basal 

 stripes and a broad irregular central belt ; the two lines nearest 

 to the outer margin become black, and the outer one expands 

 into large white-edged spots above the third median branch ; 

 outer border grey ; a marginal series of black dots in pairs ; 

 basal half and tips of fringe brown : secondaries greyish 

 brown, pale, crossed from just before the middle to near the 

 outer margin by parallel indistinct whitish undulated lines ; 

 marginal dots and fringe as in primaries : body brown. Under 

 surface grey, with paler external area crossed by grey lines ; 

 black discocellular dots. Expanse of wings 1 inch 2 lines. 



89. Anticlea umfo-ifera, n. sp. (no. 538). 



Primaries above rust-red, traversed by numerous zigzag 

 blackish lines, and crossed by an irregular central white belt

 crossed by two parallel approximated blackish zigzag post- 

 median lines ; outer border reddish ; marginal dots and fringe 

 as in primaries : body above grey, varied with rust-red and

90. Scotosia sericata, n. sp. (no. 588). 



Shining bronzy grey : wings crossed by numerous zigzag 

 and sinuated darker grey lines, three of which on the disk are 

 filled in with reddish cupreous to form a discal band, three 

 near the base of primaries and two close to the base to form a 

 subbasal band and basal stripe ; the central belt indicated upon 

 the primaries by the partial filling-in of three lines on each 

 side with brown and by black dots upon the veins : in the
