Type agraulia, in Coll. Hewitson (British Museum). 



We formerly gave agraulia, Hew., as a synonym of 

 Padraona sunias, Feld., but a recent comparison of Hewitson's 

 type of agraulia with flavovittata, prove them to be identical. 

 Hewitson says of agraulia: — "Alis fuseis; anticis macula 

 magna costali, margine interiori, fascia transversa, maculaque 

 subapiculi vix tripartita aurantiacis, posticis pilis basalibus, 

 macula parva costali, fasciaque transversa aurantiacis." 

 Under-side as above, except that the apex of the anterior 

 wing and the whole of the posterior wing are rufous and the 

 bands less distinct. The club and apiculus of this species 

 are very similar to papi/ria; as before mentioned, it is pro- 

 bably a well-marked geographical form of that species. 



Perth, Western Australia; in November. 



68. B. anisomorpha, n. sp. 



cf 9 > 25-28 mm. Head, palpi, thorax, and abdomen 

 orange-yellow; palpi, thorax, and abdomen beneath whitish; 

 palpi tinted with yellow; terminal joint short. Antennae 

 fuscous, annulated with white, basal half of club white, hol- 

 lowed, apiculus short. Legs yellowish, posterior pair fuscous- 

 tinged. Forewings elongate, triangular, costa straight, ter- 

 men oblique, hardly rounded, dark-fuscous with orange mark- 

 ings; costal area between base and posterior end of cell and 

 whole of cell orange ; slightly oblique transverse row of 8 more 

 or less connected spots from just below costa at § to vein 1 

 at anal angle ; the two spots between 4 and 6 are quadrate and 

 completely separated from the remainder, and very close to 

 termen ; the three subcostal ones are not placed obliquely, 

 but directly transverse ; the upper of the lower three of band 

 is narrowly cartridge-shaped ; the one below nearly quadrate, 

 and that on vein 1 irregular shaped, excised internally. In 

 the d the 3 subcostal spots are connected with orange costal 

 streak by continuation of same ; a somewhat flattened patch of 

 narrow blackish scales (representing stigma) parallel to, and 

 edging inner edge of three lower spots of transverse band, not 

 in 9 ; basal half of wing below cell and an elongate dorsal 

 streak orange ; cilia fuscous, terminal half yellowish, round 

 anal angle orange. Hindwings with termen rounded; dark- 

 fuscous, basal and dorsal hairs long, orange; an oval orange 

 spot in posterior extremity of cell; a moderately broad sub- 

 median orange band, outer edge moderately even, inner edge
