There is a broken example of what appears to be a species of 

 Anisodes ; but I hope Mr. Bow'rey will send us a good example some 

 day, and thus enable me to identify it with certainty. 



121. Ypsipetes? anomala, n. sp. 



Primaries above with the basal third and costa stramineous, the 

 rest of the wing silvery brown ; basal area crossed bv sinuated red-
