sandy yellow, with uo basal Hue, but with a series of purplish - 

 black spots between the veins. Hind wings the same, but with no 

 traces of any lines. Head, thorax, and abdomen concolorous. 

 Underside pale straw-colour, with the marginal spots distinct ; 

 fore wings with the costa brownish, the costal spots prolonged 

 into streaks, and a diffuse discal blotch ; hind wings with a small 

 discal dot, and a costal one above it, black. 



Expanse of mngs 30 milUm.

[Thi-ee specimens were taken by me, along with those of the 

 last species, at 10,000 feet in July. — H. J. E.^ 



[I have examples of another species, perfectly distinct from both 

 the last, whicli I took abundantly at Tonglo in July, and which 

 IMr. AVarreu has also marked Ulacina and for which I propose the 

 name of 



Hydeelia sikkimensis, sp. u. 



Fore wings dull pinkish grey, ti'aversed by 5 distinct inner 

 transverse lines, and 3 double darker outer ones, the two series 

 separated by a broad pale band including a discal spot. Hind 

 wing pale grey with a discal spot and three marginal and one internal 

 darker transverse lines. Beneath dull pinkish grey, with discal 

 spot on both wings, with one distinct transverse band and a 

 marginal line of spots. — H. J. E.'] 



AuTALLACTA, gen. nov. 



Fore \rings broad ; costa gradually arched throughout ; apex 

 distinct, minutely aubfalcate ; hind margin obHque, with a scarcely 

 perceptible blunt elbow in the middle. Hind wings broad, with a 

 distinct elbow in middle of hind margin. Palpi very short, not 

 reaching beyond face ; face rounded, protuberant ; antennae in $ 

 simple, in S subserrate. Neuration as in Asthena. 



Type, A. suhohliquaria {Timandra), Moore. 



AlTTALLACTA LliS'EATA, Sp. n. 



c? . Fore wings pale straw-colour, with rust-coloured lines, 4 

 curved near the base, one straight oblique in the centre, and 3 

 slightly wavy and irregular towards the hind margin ; fringe straw- 

 colour, with a rusty basal line. Hind wings with only the central 

 and 3 submarginal lines. Underside rather darker ; the fore wings 

 with the basal lines not represented ; head, abdomen, and legs all 

 straw-coloured. 



Expanse of wings 28 millim. 



ffah. fSikkim. 



This can hardly be an aberrant form of suhohliquctria. The fore 

 wings are decidedly concave from apex to middle of hind margin. 



[I have seen only one s])ecimen of this insect, which is very 

 di«>tinct. Mr. Warren has included under the name of A. suhohli- 

 quaria two other species which I took at much higher elevations and 

 believe to be distinct, but I will not now describe them. — H.J.E.}
