COU3 dots; cilia reddish mixed with fuscous and whitish. 

 Hindwings with teraien rounded ; purple-reddish ; cilia reddish. 



Brisbane, Queensland; two specimens taken bv Mr R 

 Illidge. ^ 



I think that Walker's geneTa.~G lathe, Callia, and Sitina — 

 may have ultimately to be merged in one. 



Clathe anthracica, n. sp. 



Male, 32 mm. Head whitish ; sides of face orange-ochreous. 

 Palpi orange-ochreous. Antennae ochreous, pectinations 

 blackish. Thorax blackish, bases of patagia whitish. Abdo- 

 men blaekish, tuft whitish. Legs blackish; anterior pair 

 thickly coated with whitish hairs on external surface; all 

 tarsi orange-ochreous annulated with blackish. Forewings 

 elongate-trianguJar, costa straight, slightly arched towards 

 apex, apex rounded, termen slightly rounded, oblique ; 

 blackish centre of disc thinly scaled ; a small whitish discal dot 

 above mid-disc, and a whitish irroration between this and dor- 

 sum ; basal part of costal edge ochreous ; veins interruptedly 

 marked with ochreous; cilia blackish, sharply barred with 

 white. Hindwings with termen rounded ; blackish ; cilia as 

 forewings. 



Allied to Clathe arida, Wlk. (Listoca lignaria, Wlk., 

 Sorema unhila, Wlk., Fema metastigma, Wlk.), but readily 

 distinguished by its blackish coloring. 



Entometa cycloloma, n. sp. 



Male, 40 mm., Head, thorax, and abdomen pale ochreous,^ 

 intimately mixed with reddish-purple-gi'ey. Paljpi three times 

 breadth of eye, purple-grey. Legs purple-grey. Forewings 

 triangular, costa towards base straight, towards apex rather 

 strongly arched, apex rectangular, termen straight, slightly 

 oblique ; pale ochreous intimately mixed with reddish-purple- 

 grey ; markings fuscous ; an outwardly curved faint line from 

 one-fourth costa to one-fourth dorsum ; a discal dot at one- 

 third ; a second faint line bent inwards in disc, from two- 

 thirds costa to mid-dorsum ; a faintly marked oblique row of 

 dots mid-way between this and dorsum ; cilia reddish-purple- 

 grey. Hindwings rather nari'ow and very distinctly elongate, 

 termen iprominently rounded ; reddish-purple-grey ; cilia 

 reddish-purple-grey, on inner margin whitish. 



In coloration and general appearance this resembles E. 

 australasice, Fab. (of which I believe intemerata, Wlk., to be a 

 synonym), but the shape of the hindwings is very different. 

 The palpi are also rather shorter. 



Cooktown, Queensland ; one specimen in Coll. Lyell.
