368 APPENDIX. 



Family Geometrid^e. 



A single example of the ubiquitous *Sterrha sacraria, Linnaeus, 

 was found by Mr. Oates near Tati. 



Family NoCTUIDiE. 



This family is represented in Mr. Oates's collection by the fol- 

 lowing species : — *Acontia Komaga, Felder ; *Heliothis armiger, 

 Hiibner ; *Cyligramma Latona, Cramer ; * Sphingomorpha Monteir- 

 om's, Butler ; *Grammodes stolida, Fabricius ; and *Ophiusa pro- 

 perans, Walker. 



The species of the remaining Lepidopterous families captured by 

 Mr. Oates did not comprise any remarkable new species, and were 

 for the most part in a much broken condition, rendering their deter- 

 mination very difficult.
