Eschatura lemurias, Meyr. 



Meyrick, Trans. Ent. Soc, 1897, p. 382. 



Phlceophora codonoptera, Turner, Annals Queensland Museum, 

 1897, p. 23. 



Mr. Meyrick's name has a few weeks' priority. Whether my 

 Phhcophora lactea is referable to the same genus must be left 

 undecided until the male is discovered. 



Procometis hylonoma, Meyr. 



Procometis acomjrta, Turn. Annals Queensland Museum, No. 

 IV., p. 30, and Procometis heterogamy Lower, Proc. Linn. Soc, 

 N.S.W., 1899, p. 103, are identical with this species. 



Brisbane, Stradbrooke Island, and Warwick, Queensland ; 

 Broken Hill, New South Wales. Probably, therefore, a species 

 of very wide distribution. Meyrick records it from Sydney and 

 Bathurst, New South Wales ; and Kangaroo Island, South 

 Australia. 



Agriophara nodigera, n. sp. 



Female, 18 mm. Head, thorax, palpi, and antenna? ochreous- 

 whitish, irrorated with fuscous. Palpi very short, not reaching 

 halfway to base of antenme, terminal joint minute. Abdomen 

 ochreous-fuscous. Legs whitish, sparsely irrorated with fuscous ; 

 tarsi and anterior tibia? annulated with fuscous. Fore wings 

 elongate-oval, costa moderately arched, apex rounded, hindmargin 

 very obliquely rounded ; whitish, densely irrorated with dark- 

 fuscous, with roundish raised tufts of blackish scales; three in a 

 line from beneath costa at one-sixth to above inner-margin at 

 one-third ; three or four in an oblique line from costa at one- 

 third to above middle of inner-margin ; just outside this is an 

 ochreous-brown spot in disc before middle ; a more obscure curved 

 line of raised dots from costa at one-half to above and before anal 

 angle ; just beyond this is an ochreous-brown spot in disc at two- 

 thirds ; a very obscure series of dots parallel to hindmargin, not 

 raised ; cilia fuscous, with a few whitish scales, and a darker line 

 at one-third. Hind wings fuscous-grey ; cilia grey, with a darker 

 line at one-third. 



I do not think it necessary to remove this species from 

 Agriophara, with which it agrees in neuration, but the peculiar 

 palpi constitute a new section of this genus. The markings are 

 obscure, but the raised blackish dots are characteristic. 



Warwick, Queensland ; one specimen in October. 



(ECOPHORID^E. 



The genera here treated of belong to the section of the family 

 without male antennal ciliations, formerly regarded as a separate 

 family, under the name of Depressariadce.
