1889.] INDIAN LEPIDOPTERA. 417 
Hab. Nilgiri Hilis, 6700 feet, July and August 1887. Nine males 
and six females received from Mr. Hampson. 
From the allied H. longipennis this species differs in its shorter 
fore wings, which are darker in colour, uniform in tint, and do not 
show any of the speckled appearance of that species. 
RHYNCHINA EREMIALIS, 0. Sp. 
Male and female of a uniform dirty sandy greyish-buff colour ; 
palpi thickly speckled with minute brown and black atoms ; shaft of 
the antennze very minutely marked with whitish, ciliated in the 
male, hairs whitish, simple in the female; head and thorax thickly 
and minutely irrorated with white, in some specimens more so than 
in others ; fore wings with a faint grey mark at the end of the cell, 
and a faint grey streak from just behind the centre of the hinder 
margin to the apex, more apparent in the female than in the male ; 
costa with some white marks towards the apex, costal line slightly 
darker than the rest of the wing, marginal lunular line to both wings 
brown, with minute whitish dots on the veins only sometimes visible ; 
fringe broad, whitish, marked with grey patches, and the whole sur- 
face of both wings indistinctly marked with whitish and greyish 
longitudinal streaks, which are only apparent under the glass. 
Underside paler, shining, with the longitudinal streaks more 
apparent, otherwise unmarked. 
This is a purely desert moth taken in sandy scrub, and has so 
much the appearance of the sand in which it is found as to be invi- 
sible to the naked eye when settled. 
Expanse of wings 5%; inch.

Sind. Taken in February, March, and April, 1886.
