the fasclse formed by lines less marked and not darkened ; denti- 

 culations blunter, the second fascia curved, not sinuated ; the 

 apical dash pale ferruginous. The present examples seem to answer 

 his description, but it is doubtful if they are a distinct species.

 L. Layard, is very exact ; but he omits to notice that the head and 

 face are pale ochreous. 



Three other species which Walker assigns with a ? to the genus 

 Aglossa — harpialis, xvii. p. 276, rufiflualis, xxxiv. p. 1249, basalts,

 the markings, appear to belong rather to this genus. 



The two specimens from which Mr. Butler described Scotomera 

 tristis, 1. c, are bothconsiderably worn and without fringes ; besides 

 which, being both females, the fore wings are naturally narrower 

 than those of the male ; the whiteness of the face and of the under 

 surface, which he notices in describing them, are of course to be
