Daph<enura, u. gen. 



Allied to Eucharia [E. Hebe, Linn) ; but the primaries with 

 more elongated costal margin, more convex outer margin, 

 shorter inner margin, the secondaries comparatively smaller, 

 with the discocellular veinlets more transverse, and the radial 

 emitted from the discocellulars at some distance from the third 

 median branch ; antennse with very short pectinations, even 

 in the male, the head rather more prominent, the thorax nar- 

 rower, the abdomen of the male with a well-defined terminal 

 bushy tuft of hairs. Type D. fasciata. 



Daphoenura fasciata^ n. sp. 



Primaries above rich golden orange, the base, a broad sub- 

 basal transverse belt, two transverse stripes before the middle, 

 an irregular spot at the end of the cell, a sinuous discal stripe, 

 and the outer border black : secondaries bright ochreous, 

 with the abdominal and external borders black : head, thorax, 

 and anus carmine ; abdomen black ; antennge black. Wings 

 below bright ochreous, with black outer border, base black : 

 primaries with two spots near the middle of the costal border, 

 a crescent at the end of the cell, and an angular discal belt 

 black : body below black, with the anus carmine. Expanse 

 of wings, S 2 inches 3 lines, ? 2 inches 2 lines. 



Ellongo, Madagascar. 



This splendid moth seems to be not uncommon at Ellongo ; 

 the collection contained five or six examples. 



Sozuza argentea, n. sp. 



Silvery white, primaries with three black spots aiTanged in 

 the form of a triangle, the first subcostal, the second on the 

 second median interspace, the third (at basal third) upon the 

 interno-median area ; front of head, lower part of palpi, upper 

 surface of anterior legs, knees and upper surface of tarsi of 

 the remaining legs black ; antennae and upper surface of 

 abdomen greyish ; anus below tinted with ochreous. Ex- 

 panse of wings 1 inch 7 lines. 



Ellongo, Madagascar. 



I find that I was wrong in rejecting Wallengren's genus 

 Sozuza ; the neuration of the primaries at once characterizes it. 

 The following described species are referable to this genus : — 

 Litliosia marginata^ Gu^n., from Madagascar ; L. Kingdom^ 

 Butl., from Madagascar ; and L. pygmcea, "Walk., from South 

 Africa. L. cephalica, from America, differs entirely in the 

 neuration of the primaries, although very similar in general 

 form and appearance.
