Studies in Australian Lepzdoptera. 43^ 



Rhodoneura bastialis. 



Rhodoneura meUlialis, Swin., A.M.N.H. (7), vi., pf. 312,. 

 (1900). 



Also from N.Q., Cooktown; Q., Duaringa. 



Rhodoneura polygraphalis. 



Rhodoneura mar-rnorealis^ Moore, P.Z.S., 1877, p. 617. 

 Rhodoneura denticulosa, Moore, Lep. CeyL, iii., p. 267. 



Also from N Q., Cooktown. 



AdDAEA Pl'SILLA. 



Microsca pusilla, Butl., A.M.N.H. (5), xx. p. 116. 



• This is the species I cited as polyphoraliSj Wlk., in my former 

 paper, but that name rightly belongs to the following species. The 

 two have been mixed in the British Museum, and during my first 

 examination of the series in that collection I must have made some 

 mistake as to the type. 



Addaea polyphoralis. 



This I identified by the description as castaneata, Warr., but 

 wrongly. That species is not known from Australia. 



Addaea fragilis. 

 Addaea fragilis^ Warr., Nov. Zool., 1899, p. 314. 

 N.Q., Cooktown. Also from Dammer Island. 



Fam. PHYCITIDAE. 



Ceroprepes mniaropis. 



Ceroprepes mniaropis. Turn., P.R.S.Q., 1903, p. 151. 



(? $ 22-26 mm. Antennae of cT unipectinate, pectinations 5, apical 

 i simple; basal joint large, with a short process directly backwards 

 over vertex. Thorax with two pairs of long hair tufts on under sur- 

 face, near anterior and posterior extremities. Posterior tibiae with a. 

 short dorsal tuft of hair scales from base. 



The discovery of the <? confirms the position of this species in the 

 genus Ceroprepes, though the cell of the hindwings is about ^; vein 7 

 of hindwings, though closely applied to 8, does not actually anastomose. 



N.Q., Kuranda, near Cairns, in October; Q., Mt. Tambourine, in 

 February; National Park (3000 ft.), in March. Three specimens. 



Gen. Ammatucha, nov. 



Frons flat. Tongue strong. Palpi moderately long (1^), curved 

 upwards, slightly rough anteriorly; terminal joint ^, stout. An- 

 tennae of (^ shortly serrate, towards apex simple, with minute cilia 

 tions; above basal joint flattened and" elongated anteroposteriorly, with
