NOVITATES ZOOLOGICAE XXIII. 1916. 45 



postmedian line more as in scitilineata Walk. (torn. cit. 1094); underside different 

 from both. 



97. Nadagara reprensata sp. nov. 



c? , 38 mm. Head and front of thorax coloured nearly as in the preceding ; thorax 

 aud abdomen otherwise fawn-colour. 



Forewing with termen crenulate anteriorly, merely waved posteriorly ; pale 

 fawn-colour, scarcely irrorated, the costal edge with some dark dots ; principal 

 veins darkened, browner ; discal dot rather large, triangular, blackish ; lines brown, 

 somewhat inclining to ferruginous, narrowly pale-edged on their reverse sides, 

 shading off into the ground-colour on their obverse ; antemedian from one-fourth 

 costa, very oblique outwards, acutely angled at cell-fold, oblique inwards and almost 

 straight to beyond one-fourth hindmargin ; postmedian from fonr-fifths costa, 

 angled outwards on SC 5 , then fairly straight to hindmargin proximally to two-thirds, 

 its anterior part faintly crenulate ; subterminal line whitish, indistinct, slightly 

 receding from termen between radials, suddenly bent outwards at R 3 and again 

 more slightly behind M 2 , very weakly dark-shaded proximally ; terminal line weak, 



somewhat interrupted ; fringe feebly spotted. Hindwing similar, with costal 



margin pale ; antemedian line wanting ; cell-dot smaller, not triangular ; post- 

 median line gently curved near costa, not crenulate. 



Underside rather paler (especially hindwing), with fine short grey strigulae, 

 except at posterior margin of forewing ; forewing washed with ochreous in cell ; 

 both wings with black discal dot and fine, curved brown outer line, about 3 - 5 mm. 

 from termen ; terminal line darker than above ; fringe rather more distinctly 

 spotted. 



Tosari, Java, January 5, 1910 (E. A. Cockayne). Type in coll. L. B. Prout, 

 presented by the discoverer. 



Near comprensata "Walk. {List Lep. Ins. xxiv. 1095). 



98. Chiasmia (?) phoeba sp. nov. 



c?, 28 mm.; ?, 30-33 mm. Head pale straw-colour, the face with a red- 

 brown spot at each side — in the S more extended red-brown. Palpus whitish at 

 base, otherwise ochreous mixed with red-brown. Antennal shaft with some 

 brownish or fuscous dots ; ciliation in <$ at least as long as diameter of shaft. 

 Thorax and abdomen whitish straw-colour, the latter with single dark dorsal spots 

 (weak in one ?). Hindtibia in <J dilated, with hair-pencil. 



Forewing rather long and narrow, termen strongly oblique, scarcely sinuous ; 

 very pale glossy straw-colour, with scattered coarse brown irroration, the veins more 

 or less strongly ochreous-brownish ; lines ochreous-brownish or slightly ferruginous, 

 variable in strength, in the <$ type (which, however, is slightly rubbed) chiefly 

 indicated as antemedian and postmedian vein-dots, in the ¥ complete ; ante- 

 median curved, from one-fourth costa (or proximally thereto) to before one-third 

 hindmargin ; median fine and slight, curving round or almost crossing the lai'ge 

 fuscous oval or roundish cell-spot, which contains some light violet-grey scales ; 

 postmedian very slightly nearer to cell-spot than to termen, almost parallel with 

 the latter except anteriorly, where it makes a slight curve proximad ; accompanied 

 distally by a slight ferruginous shade ; position of subterminal line indicated by 

 iuterneural black dots, the costal and subcostal rather large and strong, the rest 

 smaller, in part obsolescent ; terminal line not strong, interrupted. Hindiving
