45. Scop. feredayi, Knaggs. 
(Scoparia feredayi, Knaggs, Ent. Mo. Mag., iv., 80; Scoparia moanalis, Feld., Reis. Nov., 
pl. exxxvii., 34.) 
Male, fenale.—18-291 mm. Head, palpi, and thorax reddish-ochreous- 
brown: palpi 22, basal joint white. Antenne grey; ciliations $. Abdomen 
whitish-ochreous. Legs white, banded with ochreous-brown.  Forewings 
triangular, costa almost straight, apex obtuse, hindmargin almost straight, 
oblique ; reddish-ochreous, densely irrorated with dark reddish-brown ; first 
line very obscurely whitish, posteriorly suffusedly dark-margined, not 
oblique, angulated above middle; orbicular and claviform small, roundish, 
very obscurely darker, touching first line; reniform very obscure, somewhat 
8-shaped, suffusedly darker; second line white, distinct, anteriorly suffusedly 
dark-margined, upper sinuation slight, lower angular; terminal space wholly 
irrorated with white, except sometimes towards costa and narrowly along 
hindmargin : cilia grey-whitish, base white, with a reddish-fuscous anterior 
and grey posterior line. Hindwings 14, very pale whitish-grey, ochreous- 
tinged, postmedian line and hindmarginal band very suffusedly darker grey ; 
cilia white, with a faint grey line. 
Also a very distinct species, immediately known by the reddish-ochre- 
ous colour, with whitish lines and posterior irroration. As Butler has 
quoted the name as a synonym of S. submarginalis, it may be worth 
while stating that there is not the least resemblance between the two 
species.
