This paper concludes my list of the Lepidoptera of Bombay and 

 the Deccan. As already stated, I am indebted to Lord Walsingham 

 for working out the specimens of Tortricidse and Tineina.

Poona, November. 



One female from Poona, very similar in appearance to Caccecia 

 pocla7ia, Sc, but differing from that species in possessing a strong 

 tuft of stout closely-set scales on the costal margin of the hind 

 wings. 



I have in my own collection three males and four females collected 

 by the Rev. J. H. Hocking at Dharmsala in the Punjab. The males 

 also greatly resemble the European C. podana, and are, indeed, less 

 distinguishable from that species than the females, as ttey lack the 

 structural characters above referred to, differing only in their rather 

 smaller size and less brightly coloured hind wings. The type in the 

 British Museum is a female, which is more conspicuously marked on 

 the fore wings, but has the characteristic tuft on the hind wings 

 strongly developed. Mr. Hocking, to wliom I am also indebted 

 for a specimen of the larva, informs me that it lives between the 

 leaves of Quercus alba.

Bombay, October. 



A single male is in the collection of Mr. F. Moore, from Ceylon, 

 and a female in Colonel Swinhoe's collection, from Bombay. I have 

 also a single male from the Rev. J. H. Hocking, taken at Dharmsala. 

 Walker's specimen in the British Museum is from Australia, and is 

 undistinguishable from the Ceylonese and Indian examples.

I have also received the species, with its larva, from the Rev. J. H.

 the structure, appearance, and habits of the larva, which has been
