oblique, crenulate; grey-whitisli with numerous, fine, indis- 

 tinct, wavy, transverse lines ; markings brownisli-fuscous ; a 

 rather large basal patch containing some grey-whitish suffusion, 

 limited by a slightly curved wavy line from ^ costa to ^ dor- 

 sum; median band ill- defined, mostly grey-whitish with fine 

 lines, but with some fuscous suffusion on costa; a large apical 

 blotch ; two subterminal spots above tornus ; cilia fuscous, 

 towards centre of termen partly grey-whitish. Hindwings 

 with termen rounded, slightly dentate; as forewings; basal 

 patch very small; a broad terminal band, containing a sub- 

 terminal series of whitish dots on veins; a dark-fuscous 

 terminal line, interrupted by whitish dots on veins; cilia

Gen. Chaetolopha, Warr. 

 Type C . oxyntis, Meyr. This name must be adopted for 

 the small endemic genus, to which I formerly applied the 

 name Scordylia^ Gn. The areole is large and 11 widely 

 separate. In EulypCy Hb., type hastata, Lin., which other- 

 wise resembles it in neuration, the areole is smaller and 11 

 near or connate from its apex. There is, I think, no really 

 close relationship between the two genera. The species of 

 Chaetolo'pha are narrow-winged ; in the males of oxyntis and 

 leucophragma there is a small subterminal scale-tuft on vein 2 

 of hindwings on underside, but this is absent in niphosticha 

 and emporias; of the other two species I have no male to 

 examine. The penultimate abdominal segment of the male 

 bears a pair of lateral tufts. By boiling in potash- the 

 abdomen of the male leucophragma is shown to bear a pair 

 of extrusible scent-organs on the fourth segment. In the 

 male of niphosticha the termen of the hindwings is produced 

 to form an acute central tooth.

 Type E. melanoterma, Prout, from South Africa. 



EcCYMATOGE CALLIZONA, LoW. 



I am now satisfied that the type of fulvida, Turn., is 

 merely an aberration of callizona.
