1893.] SPECIES OF MOTHS FEOM ES^DIA. 355 



fringes and extreme hind margin yellow^, preceded by a purple 

 festoon, which runs in a short distance along the inner margin ; at 

 ■| of the costa a funnel-shaped purple marking obliquely curved 

 outwards to the radial, and reappearing on the inner margin before 

 anal angle as a small cone-shaped spot. Hind wings similar ; but 

 without any costal markings. Head and palpi reddish ; antennae 

 yellowish, touched with red ; abdomen ochreous, with red dorsal 

 markings ; thorax azure. Underside paler azure, with costa of 

 fore wings and fringes yellowish. 



Expanse of wiugs 26 millim.

[I have only seen two males of this very distinct species, both 

 taken by natives. — H. J. E.^ 



ULiociTEins, gen. nov. 



Tore wings broad, triangular ; costa gradually arched throughout ; 

 apex blunt ; hind margin rounded, hardly oblique ; anal angle well 

 marked. Hind wings broad, with the interior angle rounded and 

 the anal angle produced and square ; hind margin variously rounded, 

 sometimes cut off squarely. Palpi porrect, in cJ quite short, in 

 2 much longer. Antennae of d with long pectinations, which 

 are themselves pubescent ; in 2 also pectinated, but much less 

 strongly than in c? • Tore tibiae of J with a tuft of hair under- 

 neath. Xeuration normal. Scaling delicate, fine, and silky. 



Type, Uliocnemis cassidara, Guen. 



The tuft of hairs on the fore tibiae of the male is often difficult to 

 be made out, and is liable to be ^^orn off. 



UlIOClfEMIS AliBIMAEGIKATA, Sp. n. 



5 . "Wings pale grass-green ; fore wings with two white vertical 

 transverse lines ; the first slightly curved outwards at ^ ; the second 

 at f , sinuous from costa to the 3rd median nervule, then straight 

 towards the anal argle, before reaching which it is diverted 

 rectangularly inwards, including at the angle a small brown patch ; 

 an indistinct, irregularly siouous, submarginal whitish line; the 

 green space bet^^■een the exterior and the submarginal line is 

 interrupted below the costa by a suffused white patch ; nervules 

 towards the hind margin w hitish ; fringes whitish green, a minute 

 black- brown dot at their base between the nervules ; 2 larger ones 

 at the anal angle beyond the brown patch ; discal dot small, brown. 

 Hind wings with the discal marking linear, brown ; exterior line 

 indistinctly white, starts from the costa level with the extremity 

 of the exterior line of the fore wing, runs vertically to the lower 

 subcostal, along which it goes nearly to the hind margin, then 

 curves along the hind margin, widening in its course to above the 

 anal angle ; space between this line and the hind margin filled up 

 with black-brown from the costa to the radial ; thence white, more 

 or less tinged with green in the middle. Head, thorax, and abdo- 

 men (probably) green ; underside of abdomen white. Underside
