ochreous. Palpi ochreous, terminal joint shorter than second. 

 Forewings elongate, moderate, costa gently arched, termeix 

 gently rounded, oblique ; dark fuscous ; a well-defined orange 

 spot near base ; a small white spot beyond and below ; an irre- 

 gular somewhat inwardly ciu'ved transverse series of three 

 white spots, hardly forming a fascia, from costa at about one- 

 third, reaching to fold before middle ; a moderately large round 

 white spot in middle at two-thirds from base, containing two 

 fine black dots ; some white scales along termen ; a row of suf- 

 fused alternate black and yellow spots on costa, commencing 

 at transverse series of white spots, continued along costa to 

 costal cilia, thence continued along termen to anal angle, less- 

 defined along termen ; cilia yellow, more or less mixed and 

 chequered with blackish. Hindwings yellow, basal and costal 

 areas broadly blackish ; cilia yellowish-ochreous. 



Allied to the preceding, but easily separated by the bieolored 

 hindwings. 



Stawell. Victoria ; three specimens, in November. 



Saropla paracyla, Lower. 



(Flatella j^aracyla. Lower, P.L.S., N.S.W., p. 24, 1897.) 

 I refer this species to Saropla, Meyr. I was inclined to 

 form a new genus on the strength of the peculiarity of veins 

 2 and 3 of forewings, which in some specimens are short- 

 stalked ; in other from a point, and often separate ; but these 

 perplexing varieties preclude this. It will be necessary to 

 widen the characters of that genus as above to receive it. The 

 terminal joint of the palipi is erect. 



Pleurota lomographa, n. sp. 



Male.- 15 mm. Head and palpi orange, head with a median 

 transverse fuscous streak, second joint of palpi fuscous below. 

 Thorax, antennae, legs and abdomen blackish, patagia orange. 

 Forewings elongate, moderate, costa gently arched, termen 

 straight, very oblique ; bright orange-yellow ; a short blackish 

 spot on costa at base ; a moderately broad blackish streak along 

 inner margin, from base to five-sixths, cilia orange, terminal 

 half fuscous. Hindwings blackish-fuscous; cilia fuscous. 

 Underside of both wings blackish. 



Nearest chlorocliyta, Meyr., but differs in color of hindwings 

 and single streak along inner margin. 



Goolwa, South Australia; one specimen, in November.
