696 REVISION OF AUSTRALIAN LEPIDOPTERA, III., 



markings as forewings, but fuscous suffusion transverse and sub- 

 basal. 



In my tabulation this falls with C.filata, from which it may- 

 be distinguished by the oblique fuscous suffusion across forewings. 

 It is a rather variable species. 



Type in Coll. Lyell. 



N.Q.: Kuranda, in iVlarch and May ; several specimens 

 received from Mr. F. P. Dodd, of which three are in my own 

 collection. 



MlCRODES SQUAMULATA. 



Vic: Birchip. 



EUCHOECA RUBROPUNCTARIA. 



N.S.W. : Ben Lomond — Vic: Birchip. 



EUCHOECA IOPHRICA,* n.Sp. 



Q. 21 mm. Head reddish-violet; fillet white; lower part of face 

 ochreous. Palpi slender, short (1); ochreous. Antennae pale 

 ochreous, upper surface on basal half white. Thorax and abdo- 

 men pale ochreous irrorated with reddish-violet. Legs whitish- 

 ochreous. Forewings triangular, costa almost straight except 

 near base and apex, apex round-pointed, termen slightly bowed, 

 oblique; whitish-ochreous, with numerous, transverse, wavy, fine, 

 reddish-violet lines; a deeper violet terminal line thickened into 

 small spots between veins; cilia whitish-ochreous. Hindwings 

 with termen gently rounded; colour and markings as forewings. 



The forewing has the areole small, and veins 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 

 stalked from areole. In this it agrees with atrostrigata, Warr., 

 and I am inclined to think both species will ultimately be 

 removed from the genus Euchoeca. 



Type in Coll. Turner. 



N.Q. : Kuranda, in October and November; two specimens 

 received from Mr. F. P. Dodd.
