300 MR. W. WARREN ON LEPIDOPTERA [June 5, 



the orbicular stigma, followed by a similar, but longer, black dash, 

 slightly inclined to the former, representing the reniform stigma ; 

 each of these black dashes is also edged with pale erect scales ; 

 beyond the second dash are two or three angulated, and one sinuous 

 dark line, following an indistinct central pale fascia, which is whitish 

 on the inner margin ; midway between the sinuous dark line and the 

 hind margin is a pale denticulated submarginal line, preceded by an 

 irregular dark grey fascia. Extreme bind margin with a series of 

 black lunules ; a straight black dash from the apex to the sub- 

 marginal line. Hind wing dull grey ; head and thorax mottled 

 light and dark grey ; cilia grey, with a darker line along their centre 

 and apex, and a dark dash at the end of each nervure. 



Expanse of wings 34 millim. 



One female from the Berham Gully, September 1886. 



Although the markings are so different, I think it not improbable 

 that a longer series of the species will show that this insect, and 

 another, which I describe as P. dubia, are one and the same. 



There is one example, also a female, in the Hocking Collection. 



35. POLYPLOCA DUBIA, sp. n. (No. 216.) 



Fore wing grey, with a greenish tinge ; base silvery grey, edged 

 by a black line running obliquely from near the base of the costa 

 halfway across the wing ; an indistinctly darker central fascia is edged 

 internally by an angulated dark line, and externally by a sinuous 

 dark one, which approach each other on the inner margin, and 

 traversed by a central dark line which touches the orbicular stigma ; 

 this is obliquely placed, edged with darker, and contains raised 

 scales, the reniform stigma is represented by a long curved black 

 line of raised scales ; apical area paler grey, traversed by an indistinct 

 pale submarginal line, preceded by a darker fascia. An oblique 

 curved black dash from the apex ; hind margin with a row of black 

 lunules. Hind wing dull fuscous. 



Expanse of wings 34 millim. 



One female from Handar, September 1886 ; " the only specimen." 



36. ASPHALIA CINEREA, sp. n. (No. 185.) 



Fore wing dull grey, with slight pink tinge ; rather sparsely scaled ; 

 two or three short black dashes from the base. Before and beyond 

 the middle a double black transverse line ; the former forms on the 

 median vein an angle pointing towards the base of the wing ; the 

 latter an angle pointing outwards ; the part above the angle forming 

 a single curve, concave outwards; that below the angle a double 

 curve ; an indistinct pale submarginal line ; the veins varied with 

 black and white. Hind wings pale dull grey with rounded margin. 

 Head, thorax, and abdomen all dull grey. 



Expanse of wings 40 millim. 



Four females and one male from Thuudiani, August, September, 

 and October 1886. 



An inconspicuous-looking insect ; but the specimens are none in 

 fine condition. " Fairly common, at light and sugar."
