quently I refer it to Antsogona. According to description it differs 
from similana by the absence of the fuscous spots on costa at one- 
third and two-thirds and color of hindwings. The triangular 
yellow spot on costa is very conspicuous and enhances the beauty 
of the species. One specimen from Stawell, Victoria, and one 
from Gippsland, Victoria, taken in December and received from 
Mr. G. Lyell, jun., of Gisborne. 
DICHELIA (?) AMEBGA, nN. sp. 
™ Female, 15 mm. Head, palpi, thorax, antenne, and abdomen 
dark fuscous; palpi lighter internally. Abdomen whitish 
beneath. Legs whitish, externally somewhat infuscated. Fore- 
wings moderately broad, somewhat dilated posteriorly ; costa 
gently arched, apex obtuse; hindmargin almost straight, hardly 
sinuate in middle; dull purplish-fuscous, strigulated with darker 
fuscous ; ground color, becoming lighter towards hindmargin ; a 
sharply defined pale flesh colored triangular blotch, extending on 
costa from middle to near apex and reaching nearly half across 
the wing ; edged by a thick black shade almost its own width ; 
on the lower extremity of patch is a fine irregular line of 
ochreous-white ; several short oblique blackish lines on costal 
portion of patch ; three or four short blackish marks above anal 
angle, an indistinct blackish mark on upper part of hindmargin ; 
cilia grey, tips fuscous. Hindwings with hindmargin very 
slightly sinuate beneath apex ; dark fuscous ; cilia grey, with a 
dark fuscous median line. 
This species, which is remarkably distinct, hardly seems refer- 
able to this genus. So far as can be made out, without dissec- 
tion, both veins seven and eight appear to run to the costa, a 
character hitherto only known to occur in DMictoneura, Meyr. 
There is, however, no sign of any crest on the thorax, which at 
once removes it from that genus. The neuration of the hindwings 
is similar to Dichelia, consequently I refer it, until I obtain more 
material, to that genus, but not without some hesitation. I took 
one beautiful specimen at Brisbane (‘‘ Kedron Brook ”), Queens- 
land, in December, beaten from an aquatic plant. 
Torrrix (?) PYRRHOPA, 0. sp. 
Female, 16. Head, thorax, and abdomen fuscous ; abdomen 
whitish beneath. Antennz and legs ochreous fuscous. Forewings 
moderate, slightly dilated posteriorly, costa gently arched, apex 
rounded, hindmargin sinuate in middle; dull reddish fuscous, 
irregularly strigulated with darker fuscous and blackish; a 
suffused darker fuscous quadrate patch on inner-margin from 
base to before middle, reaching more than half across wing ; 
extreme costal edge ochreous-white ; cilia reddish-fuscous. Hind- 
wings with hindmargin rounded, somewhat sinuate in middle ;
