172 MR. A. G. BUTLER ON INDIAN LEPIDOPTERA. [Apr. 3, 



T. lithina, and having similar markings ; the wings, however, paler, 

 the cliscal band on the primaries edged internally by a black 

 angulated stripe, close to the centre of which also is a black spot ; 

 two other black stripes cross the same wings, the three being at equal 

 distances apart ; the secondaries are crossed by a grey-blackish stripe 

 at the basal third, and the disco-subraarginal band is partly bounded 

 internally by a black stripe, near the extremity of which it bears a 

 small black spot : on the under surface the pattern is similar to that 

 of T. lithina, but the markings are bronze-brown. Expanse of 

 wings 26 mm. 



"Mhow, March 1S82. Is this another form of the variable 

 Macaria strenuataria of Walker ? " — C. S. 



The species is nearer to Walker's "Macaria" ! strenuata than to 

 his M. strenuataria ; it is probable, from the similarity in the two 

 names, that these nearly allied forms have got confounded in Colonel 

 Swinhoe's collection, and have thus led him to regard the species as 

 variable. 



140. Nadagara^ grisea, sp. n. 



Pearl-grey ; primaries crossed by two widely separated dark-brown 

 lines, the inner one straight, the outer one strongly angulated above 

 the middle and inarched on each side of the angle ; a slender brown 

 marginal line : secondaries crossed just beyond the middle by a 

 slightly angulated but nearly straight dusky line ; a slender mar- 

 ginal line. Primaries below pearl-grey ; the costal area pale yellow, 

 speckled with grey and crossed towards apex by a brownish line ; 

 a slender black marginal line ; fringe dark grey with a pale yellow 

 basal line ; secondaries pale creamy yellow, grey-speckled ; a nearly 

 rectangular dark-brown line across the disk ; a slender marginal 

 black line ; fringe pale yellow. Expanse of wings 32 mm. 



Exact locality wanting. 



Delocharis, gen. nov. 



Aspect of Idcea (I. aversata), but allied to Coremia. Primaries 

 elongated, acuminate, but not falcate ; secondaries comparatively 

 short, pyriform ; discoidal cells not extending to the middle of the 

 wings ; costal vein of primaries extending to second third of costal 

 margin ; subcostal five-branched — first branch emitted at some dis- 

 tance before the end of the cell, united beyond the cell by a short 

 cross vein to the second, the three following branches (including 

 the second) branching off at regular intervals, the third and fourth 

 forming a long fork to apex, the fifth branch emitted from below 

 the vein in a line with the cross veinlet ; radials normal, the upper 

 radial from the anterior angle of the cell ; discoceUulars transverse, 

 very slightly inarched ; second and third median branches emitted 

 near together from the posterior angle of the cell ; costal and sub- 

 costal veins of secondaries closely approximated at their origins ; 



' The position of tbis genuB is at present undecided ; it probably should be 

 near to Drepanodcs.
