90 Mr. A. G. Butler on Melbourne Lepidoptera. 



One example. 



This is a strikingly distinct and rather large species. 



Noctuidse. 



19. Agrotis Bauerij Felder (347) . 



One perfect specimen. 



An insect labelled No. 335 is too much broken and rubbed 

 for identification ; the abdomen is wanting, and the wings are 

 worn and split. 



PoapMlidae. 



20. Phytometra tri'stis, sp. n. (70). 



Brownish grey ; fringe of wings a little paler : primaries 

 with four nearly equidistant white costal spots, the first at the 

 outer edge of a broad dark-brown angular basal band, the 

 second and third at inner and outer edges of a broad central 

 band of the same character ; a black spot at the end of the 

 cell ; margins of tegulee and posterior margins of abdominal 

 segments indistinctly wliitish. Primaries below grey, seri- 

 ceous ; costal border creamy whitish at base ; four dusky 

 costal spots, the third and fourth of which are the commence- 

 ment of two internally diffused, externally undulated, and 

 whitish-bordered subparallel discal bands ; fringe with a pale 

 basal line ; discocellulars black : secondaries greyish brown, 

 with a slight pink tint, the basal three fourths almost entirely 

 occupied by tliree internally diffused and externally white- 

 bordered undulated oblique bronze-brown bands ; fringe with

One male. 



Urapteridae. 



21. Idiodes mitigata, Gudnee (124). 



One example. 



This species is figured by Felder as /. inspirata of Gudn^e. 



22. Idiodes siculoides^ Walker. 



At 



A fragment. 



Walker unnecessarily made a new genus [Choara) for this 

 species; it does not differ in a single structural character from 

 Idiodes.
