Pseudodoxia, from which it is distinguished by vein 7 of forewings running to 

 termen. 



Psaltica monochorda, Meyr. 



$$. 12-16 mm. Head light yellowish, sometimes tinged with brownish. 

 Palpi pale yellowish, second joint varying from brownish to dark fuscous. 

 Forewings with anterior half brown or dark brown, white median line variable, 

 nearly straight or rather curved, often followed by a fascia of pale yellowish, 

 suffusion, discal black dot usually on posterior edge of this fascia, but some- 

 times within it if broad, apical area beyond this more or less suffused with 

 brown, Hindwings varying from pale to dark grey. 



Maskeliya, Madulsima, Peradeniya, Ceylon (Pole) ; from August to May, 

 sixteen specimens. A variable species ; the above notes are supplementary 

 to the original description. 



Psaltica toxophanes, n. sp. 



ft. 13 mm. Head, antennae, and thorax fuscous, crown suffused with 

 ochreous-yellowish. Palpi dark fuscous, terminal joint whitish-ochreous. 

 Abdomen grey, anal tuft ochreous-yellowish. Forewings elongate, rather 

 narrow, costa gently arched, apex rounded-obtuse, termen very obliquely 

 rounded; glossy ochreous-fuscous, with a faint purplish tinge; an incurved pale 

 ochreous-yellowish fascia at §, anterior edge sharply defined, posterior suffus- 

 ed : cilia fuscous. Hindwings grey ; cilia pale fuscous tinged with yellowish. 



Khasis ; in July, one specimen. Much blunter-winged than the preceding, 

 without white line or black dot. 



Psaltica xanthochra, n. sp. 



ft. 10 mm. Head, palpi, and thorax yellow-ochreous. Antennae greyish. 

 Abdomen grey, anal tuft ochreous-yellowish. Forewings elongate, costa 

 gently arched, apex obtuse, termen very obliquely rounded ; glossy ochreous- 

 brown, with a faint lilac tinge ; a straight whitish line crossing wing at |, 

 carrying the small black second discal stigma on its posterior edge, followed by 

 a fascia of deep yellow suffusion, becoming much broader towards costa, 

 apical area beyond this tinged wit'h deep yellow : cilia ochreous-yellow 

 Hindwings rather dark grey ; cilia light grey tinged with yellowish. 



Puttalam, Ceylon (Pole) ; two specimens. Distinguished from P. mono- 

 chorda by the smaller size, deep yellow suffusion, more obtuse forewings, and 

 black discal dot resting on white line instead of beyond it. 



Eupselia, Meyr. 



A genus of about fourteen Australian species, hitherto not found elsewhere. 

 It is allied to Psaltica, but differs by the shorter antenna?, which are not 

 lengthened or thickened in ft, and coincidence of veins 7 and 8 of forewings 

 (7 to costa, 8 absent). The following species agrees well in character with 

 the typical Australian forms. 



Eupselia isacta, n. sp. 



ft $. 13-14 mm. Head, palpi, and thorax ochreous-yellow, sides of face 

 and shoulders ferruginous. Antennas whitish-ochreous. Abdomen ochreous-
