single and somewliat worn specimen does not altogether agree 

 with his description ; but I hesitate to make it a type on a few 

 small discrepancies which may possibly be due to abrasion.

Head white ; palpi rather long ; second joint passing beyond 

 base of antennse, white on inner, dark greyish fuscous on 

 outer surface ; third joint dark fuscous ; thorax wliite, with 

 small antero-lateral blackish spots ; antennae greyish fuscous ; 

 abdomen wanting, but very probably ochreous as in E. epi- 

 causta, to which this species is very closely related. Anterior 

 legs blackish grey ; middle legs yellowish, irrorated with 

 greyish ; posterior legs glossy pale ochreous opaline whitish, 

 irrorated with greyish ; tibise with long yellow hairs above ; 

 tarsal joints greyish ochreous on inner, darkish grey on outer 

 surface. Fore wings moderately elongated, apex round, hind 

 margin oblique, anal angle rounded, pure somewhat irides- 

 cent white, with an ochreous, almost chestnut- brown trans- 

 verse fascia, from a of costa to -i- of inner margin, slightly 

 dilated near middle ; a second broader, similarly coloured band 

 enclosing a nearly circular clear white spot from | costa to 

 hind margin, just before anal angle, and an ochreous chestnut, 

 subtriangular, hind-marginal blotch, which nearly touches 

 the outer margin of the second band near the middle ; fringes 

 pale ochreous whitish, dull slaty grey at apex. Hind wings 

 glossy grey,_with a slight purplish tinge ; tips pale ochreous 

 irrorated with greyish, and whole of fringe along abdo- 

 minal margins much paler, whitish ; slaty greyish at apex of 

 wing. Expanse 19 millim. 



This species is easily distinguished from its nearest allies by 

 the white spots in the second band and by the basal area being 

 pure white.

 specimen noted by Mr. Butler — on Mr. Meyrick^s opinion, I
