Epicoma asboUna-, Turn., Trans. Roy. Soc. S. Aust., 1902, p. 183. 

 N. Aust: Darwin; N. Qland: Prince of Wales Island, Cocn River, Cairns, 

 Townsville, Bowen. 



Also from New Guinea. 



Gen. 4. T a n y s t o l a, n.g. 



TavvoToXos, long-robed. 



Forewing with 2 from two-thirds, 3 from five-sixths, 4 from angle, 5 from 

 middle of cell, 6 from upper angle, arcole present, 7 arising separately from 

 areole, 8, 9 stalked and 10 connate or short-stalked with them from areole, 11 

 from three-fourths. Hindwings with cell long (two-thirds), 2 from two-thirds, 

 3 from before angle of cell, well separated at origin from 4, which is from 

 angle, 6 and 7 stalked, 12 approximated to cell near base. 



The forewings are exceptionally long and narrow. 



17. Tantstola ochrogutta. 



Cneth-oco/mpa ochrogutta, H.-Seh., Ausser. Schmet., i., f. 460. 



d'. 30 mm. Head whitish-ochreous ; lower half of face, and hair tufts in 

 front of antennae orange-ochreous. Antennae dark-fuscous; peetination.s in <? 

 10. Thorax dark-fuscous, apices of hairs partly orange-ochreous. Abdomen 

 dark-fuscous, tuft whitish-ochreous. Leg's fuscous; hairs on middle 

 and posterior tibiae and annulations on middle and posterior tarsi whitish. Fore- 

 wings elongate, costa straight to middle, thence strongly sinuate, apex rounded, 

 termen strongly bowed, strongly oblique; fuscous; a broad sub-basal fascia not 

 reaching costa and nai-rowed on dorsum, whitish; an orange-ochreous discal spot 

 beneath costa at middle, and a second beyond middle; a sinuate whitish oblique 

 line from three-fourths costa to three-fourths dorsum; a teiminal series of orange 

 ochreous spots; cilia fuscous. Hindwings with termen slightly rounded; fus- 

 • cous ; cilia fuscous. 



Described from an example in the British Museum labelled "Australia." I 

 conjecture that it is from Western Australia. Herrich-Schaeffer's acumen in 

 referring this species to the genus Cnethocampa must be acknowledged. 



Gen. 5. S t h e x a d e l p h a, n.g. 



a6ivaS€\(j>6^, a sturdy brother. 



Forewings with 2 from two-thirds, 3 from five-sixths, 4 from angle, 5 from 

 middle of cell, 6 from upper angle, areole present, 7 and 10 arising separately 

 from areole, 8, 9 stalked, 11 from five-sixths. Hindwings with 2 from two- 

 thirds, 3 from before angle well separated at origin from 4, which is from angle, 

 6 and 7 stalked, 12 approximated to ■cell near base; cell one-half to three-fifths. 



Structurally this genus is near the preceding, but the forewings are less 

 elongate, and 10 arises separately from the areole. while in the hindwings the 

 cell is much shorter. 



18. Sthenadelpha Isabella.

 dark-fuscous; stalk usually ochreous. Abdomen ochreous or whitish-ochreous;
