Orthocabera brunneiceps, sp. u. (Plate XXXI. tig. 23.) 



J 2 ■ Resembles 0. sericea, Butler, from Japan, but larger, with 

 all the markings much more strongly expressed ; head, face, and 

 palpi all brown. 



ifab. Sikkim. 



[I have this from Messrs. G-ammie and Knyvett, taken in spring, 

 and one from Mr. Dudgeon marked February. Mr. Doherty took 

 it in the Karen Hills in March. It seems to occur at about 5000- 

 7000 feet. It is a very distinct, well-marked species. — R. J. E.} 



MiCEO'iDiA (?) suBPUNCTATA, sp. u. (Plate XXXI. fig. 11.) 



2 . Fore wings silky white ; costa speckled with brown striae ; 

 4 transverse pale oliAe lines ; the second, as usual, the broadest, in 

 the middle of the wing beyond the cell-spot, which is a distinct 

 blackish dash ; 4th line olive, parallel to hind margin, broader and 

 more distinct than in sim^iUciata \ 1st and 3rd very slender, the 

 olive tints much interrupted, but marked on each vein by a black 

 dot ; the basal line preceded by 2 or 3 transverse dark striae ; a 

 strong black basal line before the fringes, distinctly interrupted on 

 the veins ; fringes tinged with olive. Hind wings the same, but 

 without the 1st line ; the other 3 meet towards the anal angle, 

 before which are 2 large black spots ; inner margin also pale olive. 

 Head and thorax white, tinged with pale olive ; abdomen entirely 

 pale olive. Underside white, with the costal striae and cell-spot 

 dai'ker, the other markings showing through. 



Hah. Sikkim. In these examples the antennae are subserrate 

 and ciliated ; it is thez'efore probable that those of the S will be 

 found to be pectinated. 



[I took one specimen myself at Tonglo and have two others 

 from the interior, all females. — H. J. E.'] 



MiCRONIDIA UNIPU>'CXA, sp. n. 



$ . Fore wings pure cx'eamy white, with 4 straight pale olive- 

 ochreous streaks. Costa with a few irregularly disposed dark 

 striae. The first line is nearer the base than in simpliciata, Moore ; 

 the second, the broadest, is before the middle of the wing, and 

 includes the cell-spot, which is very faint and lies on the outside 

 edge of the fascia ; the 3rd is straight like the 2nd and not waved 

 as in simpliciata ; all these three run parallel to one another, 

 shghtly inclined outA\ards ; the 4th band is narrower and parallel 

 to the hind margin, therefore inclined at a slight angle to the 

 3rd; none of the 4 jijies touches the costa ; a fine black line at 

 base of fringes, attenuated at the end of each vein. Hind wings 

 without 1st line; ; 2nd and 3rd as in fore wings ; 4th, edged 

 distinctly with brown externally, runs from tlie crtreme apex to 

 before the anal angle; space beyond it to tlu; hind margin whiter, 

 containing only I black spot above anal angle ; fringe-line very tine 

 and interrupted. Head, face, tliorax, and abdomen silky white. 

 Underside all while, but with the markings of the npperside 

 phowing through.
