 and axillary cells lighter; a large central white spot 

 extending from Rs to Cu ; a second rather large white spot 

 extending from Ri to R2+3 ; a third at the wing-tip, reaching 

 from the tip o£ Rg to just bej^ond the tip of Ri+5. Scj 

 ending just before r ; Scg opposite fork of Rs ; r somewhat 

 oblique, three times its length before tip of Ri ; Rg quite 

 four times as long as R2+3 ; r-m slightly beyond base of Rj, 

 also slightly beyond middle of upper margin of discal cell ; 

 cell Ml present, with extremely short stalk ; Cu^a near apex 

 of lower margin of discal cell ; basal section of M3 very 

 oblique ; Cug somewhat curved, as long as Cu^a. 



Length of body 20 mm.; wing 14'5 x-l'S mm.

17. Eriocera borneana, sp. n., ? ? (PL X. fig. 12.) 



fl'earf blackish grey, with moderately long black pubescence. 

 Frontal tubercle triple, but only very slightly prominent. 

 Antennae and palpi black (tips of both missing in type). 

 Thorax almost uniformly red ; pleurae only a little darker ; 

 pubescence normal, pale. Abdomen missing in the type. 

 Legs rather short, dark brown, tarsi darker ; claws simple ; 

 empodium short and narrow. Wings dark brown ; a white 

 fascia in the middle, extending from Rj to Cu (at which it 

 ends abruptly) and just touching the fork of Rs ; another 

 white spot immediately before the apex, not touching the 

 front margin, but reaching the hind -margin between R4+g 

 and Mi^2' Sc^ ending opposite base of Rg; Scj near tip of 

 Sci ; r vertical, about three times its length from tip of Ri ; 

 R2 nearly four times as long as R2+3 ; r-m below base of R,^ ; 

 basal section of JVri^.2 {i. e., inner margin of discal cell) nearly 

 vertical; a trace of vein Mx present (more marked in the 

 wing figured than in the other) ; Cu^a at about two-thirds 

 of discal cell ; Cuj slightly curved, longer than Cu^a. 

 HaUeres bbick. 



Size of wing 9x3 mm. 



Borneo: Kuching, Sarawak, 27. iv. 1900 (/. Heioitt), 

 1 ? (?). A second specimen, almost certainly belonging to 

 the same species, is in the Cambridge Museum from Borneo 

 (Kuching ?), 20 X. 1901 {R. She/ford). In this specimen the 

 first three abdominal segments and the ovipositor are yellow, 

 the remainder of the abdomen dark. The wing differs from 

 the type in having no trace of a pale subapical spot, and no 

 trace of vein Mi. Tiie size of the subapical wing-spot is 

 probably variable, since in Walker's male type of E. hifixa
