minal joint moderately long, slender, erect, pointed ; pos- 

 terior tibiae with all spurs. Forewings with vein 12 reach- 

 ing costa well before end of cell ; vein 5 close to bottom of 

 cell ; vein 3 well before end of cell, about twice as far from 

 2 as from 4 ; vein 2 slightly nearer to end of cell than base 

 of wing. Hind wings with vein 7 very close to end of cell ; 

 5 absent ; 3 immediately before end of cell ; vein 2 twice 

 as far from base of wing as from end of cell. Forewing 

 without stigma. 



This genus ranges from India, through the Indo- 

 Malayan Archipelago to Australia, and it is probable that 

 other species will be discovered in the tropical parts of Aus- 

 tralia. The antenna! club is characteristic of this and the 

 following genus.

d $ , 20-22 mm. Head, palpi, antennae, thorax, and ab- 

 domen fuscous; palpi, thorax, and abdomen beneath whitish. 

 Antennae annul ated with white. Club somewhat flattened, 

 distinctly hollowed, apiculus extremely short. Legs fuscous, 

 posterior pair whitish. Forewings elongate, moderate, costa 

 straight, termen somewhat bowed, oblique, some obscure 

 raised scales on veins 1,2, and 3 representing stigma, fuscous 

 with yellowish-orange markings. An elongate spot, filling up 

 whole of cell from base to posterior end of cell, with a slight 

 fuscous suffusion toward base, more pronounced in <$ ; ex- 

 treme costal edge fuscous; an oblique transverse fascia, 

 moderately narrow, composed of 8 more or less connected 

 spots, from just beneath costa, at J to vein 1 above anal 

 angle; the two spots between veins 4 and 6 are completely 

 separated from the remainder, and are very close to the ter- 

 men ; the three subcostal spots (representing the usual sub- 

 apical series) are not placed obliquely, but directly transverse ; 

 a narrow streak between vein 1 and dorsum ; cilia dark-fus- 

 cous, becoming whitish on terminal half and paler at anal 

 angle. Hindwings with termen rounded; colour as in fore- 

 wings; an orange-yellow spot in posterior extremity of cell; 

 an orange-yellow rather narrow postmedian band of four spots 

 separated only by intervening nervules, extending from vein 

 1 to # 6 ; the two middle spots much smaller than others, some- 

 what cartridge-shaped; other two irregularly quadrate; 

 generally an additional spot on vein 7 ; basal and dorsal hairs 

 orange-yellow ; cilia whitish, basal half fuscous, becoming yel- 

 lowish round anal angle. Under-side of forewings dark- 

 fuscous, markings of upper-side reproduced, basal half of cell 

 fuscous, wing between vein 4, costa, and apex dusted with
