of Three Species of Indian Micro- Lepidoptera. 303 



Head, face and palpi white. Antennae wliitisli ; basal joint 

 white. Legs white. 



Anterior wings white, with two slender grey streaks ; one from 

 the shoulder, terminating on the fold beyond the middle, the other 

 beginning on the costa, near the base, and running parallel to it; 

 the latter half of the space, included between these two streaks, is, 

 in certain lights, pale golden. In the middle is a short oblique 

 streak from the costa ; beyond the middle is a transverse dark 

 fuscous line, beyond which the apical portion of the wing is almost 

 entirely pale ochreous, but with two short fuscous streaks from 

 the costa, and some fuscous streaks at the anal angle ; at the 

 apex is an intense black dot preceded by a few silvery scales, and 

 from it three or four fuscous streaks radiate in the cilia. Pos- 

 terior wings whitish, with pale grey cilia. 



Of this species Mr. Atkinson only sent me two specimens, ob- 

 serving, " it feeds on a species of Citrus. The mine and cocoon 

 are very like those of Phyllocnistis saligna and suffusella. The 

 cocoon is situated at the edge of the leaf, which is rolled up by it, 

 just as the willow and poplar leaves are by those species. I pro- 

 pose to call it Ph. Cilrella. It appears in February." 



Lithocolletis Bauhinice, Atkinson in litt. 



Alis anticis brunneo-ochreis, linea tenui basali abbreviata al- 

 bida infra et postice nigrosquamata, fasciis tenuibus duabus 

 angulaiis, tertia obliqua albidis, postice nigrosquamatis.

This is not closely allied to any of our European species. It 

 has some resemblance to Trifasciella and Scabiosella, but is at once 

 distinguished by the dark margins of the three fasciae being on 

 their posterior edges. Another singular instance of a marking 

 diametrically opposite to those which occur in the European 

 species of this genus, is, that the basal streak is dark margined on 

 its dorsal edge.

Head dark ochreous, with a ferruginous tinge. Face and 

 palpi whitish. Antennae whitish, with fuscous annulations. 

 Hind tarsi whitish, broadly annulated with dark fuscous. 



Anterior wings brownish-ochreous, with a slender, short, 

 whitish basal streak, margined beneath, and at its end with black. 

 Before the middle is a slender, angulated, whitish fascia, much 

 nearer the base on the inner margin than on the costa ; the costal 

 arm of this fascia is very short ; beyond the middle is a second
