442 Miss E. M. Sliavpe on new 



Fam. Acrseidse. 

 Telchinia alicia, sp. n. 



Similar to T. bonasia, Fabricius, of which Mr. Butler 

 considers T. set-ena to be only the female. Both sexes are 

 represented in Mr. Jackson's collection, and the male differs 

 in the black marking on the hinder margin of the fore wing, 

 which is continued from the basal area to nearly the middle 

 of the inner margin. In T. bonasia the black basal area of 

 the hind wing joins the black basal area of the fore wing, as 

 in T. alicia, but it is continued upwards towards the disk of 

 the latter, so that the orange of the fore wing is much nar- 

 rowed towards the base of the wing. 



The black border of the hind wing is much narrower in 

 T. alicia than it is in T. bonasia, and the hind wing is also 

 parti-coloured, the inner portion of the wing being ochreous 

 as far as the third median nervule, the rest of the hind wing- 

 being deep orange, like the fore wing. The female differs in 

 the greater width of the yellow areas on both sides. Diam. 38 

 millim. 



Alcana Johanna, sp. n. 



Nearest to A. interposita, Butler. The wings above are 

 of a smoky blackish-grey colour, with a line of white in the 

 discoidal cell. There is a half-circle of white spots on the fore 

 wing, placed between the subcostal nervules, commencing from 

 the costal margin, and leaving a very broad band of smoky 

 black along the hind margin, widening towards the apex ; 

 there is also a white patch below each median nervure, these 

 white patches forming a continuous band with the subcostal 

 spots before mentioned. The hind wing has a band of white 

 from the inner margin extending to the first subcostal nervure, 

 but narrowing somewhat as it approaches the latter. Fringe 

 white, but black at the end of each nervule. Diam. 26 millim. 



Lepidoptera Heteeocera. 



Fam. Anaphidae. 



Heteeanaphe, gen. nov. 



Similar to Anaphe, but distinguished by its huge and 

 coarsely pectinated antenna} and by the neuration of the hind 

 wing, the subcostal branches arising from the end of the 

 cell instead of from a foot-stalk.
