146 New Lepidoptera collected by Mr. T. A. Barns 



Territory, 4,000 m., September, 1919 (T. A. Barns) has the central band 

 almost unmixed with red. 



This species slightly recalls an overgrown Epirrhoe submaculata 

 Warr. (Nov. Zool. ix. 515). 



9. Epirrhoe euthy gramma sp. nov. (pi. XV11I, fig. 8). 



$ , 27 mm. 



Head and palpus pale clay-colour, heavily irrorated with black, the 

 palpus towards its extremity predominantly black. Antenna pubescent. 

 Collar fawn-colour. Thorax and abdomen pale clay-colour, more tinged 

 with cinnamon above than beneath, above (excepting base of abdomen) 

 with some ill-defined grey cloudings ; abdomen with one or two appre- 

 ciable grey crests anteriorly. Legs partly infuscated, especially the 

 fore leg, on which the pale extremities of the tarsal joints are rather 

 conspicuous by contrast. 



Fore wing rather broad, apex rather pronounced, termen straightish 

 to middle, then slightly curved, becoming rather more oblique ; pale 

 clay-colour ; basal area with some slight dark irorration and slightly 

 dark-shaded costally ; subbasal line double, straight, exceedingly fine 

 and weak ; median band broad, limited by pure white lines ; the ante- 

 median straight, from hind margin at about one-third, nearly vertical, 

 obsolete in front of SC ; the postmedian with a very slight proximal 

 curve at costa, minute subcostal indentation, scarcely noticeable 

 sinuosity at the usual positions, at hind margin slightly oblique out- 

 ward ; the band from the hind margin to near SC and SC 5 velvety 

 black-brown, anteriorly scarcely darker than the ground-colour (though 

 more tinged with fawn) traversed by five grey lines ; three dark lines 

 (the first very fine) between the postmedian and the subterminal ; sub- 

 terminal pure white, interrupted by an oblique white dash from apex 

 and a blackish cloud thence to R 3 ; conspicuous, though rather less pure 

 white patch between subterminal and termen from R 3 to M 2 ; terminal 

 line black, interrupted by dots of the ground-colour on the veins and 

 weakened or slightly interrupted midway between ; fringe irregularly 

 mottled with grey and with a fine whitish line beyond middle. 



Hind wing rather paler and more greyish, almost uniform from base 

 to postmedian but with slight indications (clearest at abdominal margin) 

 of three or four wavy darker lines ; postmedian fine, white, wavy at 

 abdominal margin oblique outward ; a fainter pale line just beyond ; 

 subterminal line and the distal blotch indicated behind R 3 ; a small 

 brown patch at abdominal margin just proximal to the subterminal ; 

 terminal line and fringe as on fore wing.
