about middle; a narrow terminal band, sometimes obsolete 

 towards apex; a dark-fuscous terminal line obsolete towards 

 apex; cilia fuscous, towards apex pale yellow. 



Not unlike E. lucidulata, Wlk., which may be at once 

 distinguished by the indented antemedian line. 



New South Wales : Barrington Top, in December ; three 

 specimens. Type in Coll. Goldfinch.

 middle, with a blackish discal mark near its anterior edge; 

 fine whitish lines defining median band, anterior from J costa 

 to J dorsum, outwardly curved, posterior from beyond § costa 

 to before | dorsum, at first transverse, then shortly incurved,

New South Wales: Mount Kosciusko (4,500 ft.), in 

 January; one male. Victoria: Mount St. Bernard, in 

 February; two femalos, in Coll. Lyell. Two specimens from 

 New South Wales (Ebor) in January and Victoria (Castle- 

 maine, Dr. W. E. Drake) in March are probably of the 

 same species, but the forewings are much paler except in 

 basal patch and median band. Two since received from Mr.
