surrounding the eyes ; palpi pale yellowish, short, not projecting 

 beyond the head, having a few long hairs on the underside. Thorax 

 brilliantly metallic rosy golden. Fore wings with the basal third 

 dull yellow, longitudinally streaked with three brilliant metallic blue 

 and rosy lines — one along the costa, one on the middle, and one 

 above the dorsal margin ; these are blended in a brilliant rosy 

 metallic band, which precedes a yellow central fascia, margined nar- 

 rowly on its outer, more widely on its inner edge with black ; this 

 fascia is narrow towards the dorsal, widening towards the costal 

 margin ; beyond it the remaining portion of the wing, to the end of 

 the cilia, is brilliantly golden, shot with rosy purple. 



(S . Expanse 13 millims. 



I received several males of this most beautiful species from the 

 Rev, H. Hocking, from Dharmsala, in the Punjaub. It is probably 

 allied to Adela orientella (Staud.).
