24 Col. C. Swinhoe on new 
with white dots on it; a marginal line and a line at the end 
of the cilia; two brown, nearly obliquely square patches on 
the costa between apex and middle: hind wings with corre- 
sponding lines, but indistinct: underside darker brown, with 
central straight and discal curved lines, the latter with some 
rather prominent white spots; in the paler specimens there 
is a brown suffused patch on hind wings above near the anal 
angle, and in one example all the lines beyond the middle are 
obsolete. 
Expanse of wings 7 inch. 
Queensland. 
Marked somewhat like Prolophota trigonifera, Hmpsn., 
the colour of which is pure white. 
Family Nymphulide. 
Genus HEMILOBA, nov. ‘ 
Fore wings very narrow and elongate; the costa strongly 
convex towards apex, which is depressed; outer margin very 
oblique to below middle, then strongly insinuate and rounder 
to the hinder angle: hind wings with the abdominal margin 
very short; outer margin twice strongly incised, so as to 
form two lobes—the median broader than the apical, the 
remainder to anal angle sinuate and truncate: antennee short, 
thick, lamellate, finely pubescent, the basal joint swollen; 
labial palpi porrect; maxillary palpi thickened towards 
extremity ; tongue and frenulum present; hind legs with the 
tibie and tarsi very long, the former with four spurs; the 
femora short, clothed with a tuft of fuscous and black hairs. 
Fore wings with cell two thirds of wing, narrow, the 
median vein being above the middle of wing, vein 2 shortly 
before lower angle of cell, 3, 4, and 5 close together from 
the end, 7 from the upper angle, 6 from just below it, 8, 9, 
and 10 stalked, 11 free; vein 2 runs shortly into the mar- 
ginal sinus, terminal third above the submedian fold, with a 
fringe of hairs: hind wings with veins 6, 7, and 8 ending in 
the apical lobe, 2, 3, 4, and 5 apparently in the median lobe, 
but the veins are swollen and contorted, forming a puckered 
space before margin at inner edge of lobe, the edges of the 
lobes as well as the outer margin itself with long cilia. 
Hemiloba excisa, nov. 
g. Pale greyish pink: fore wings with a broad white 
band from base to middle, a white space on costa one third 
from apex, a black sinuous submarginal line, with a white
