Striglina jacanda sp. n. 



(PL 7, fig. 30; PI. 32, fig. 177; PI. 54, figs 317-319) 



$. Wing, 16-16-5 mm. Vertex brown. Ocelli well developed, frons flattened between 

 eyes. Antennae minutely ciliate. Labial palps with third segment 1/2 length of second, 

 upturned, just reaching vertex. Eyes with interfacetal hairs. Thorax brown. Hind tibia 

 with sclerotized hook at tip of each spur. Outer spur of distal pair slightly shorter than inner 

 spur. Hind tibia flattened with scale tuft. Hind tarsi each with pair of spines at distal end. 

 Fore wing, pattern as in PI. 7, fig. 30, brown with dark brown median and costal areas. Strong 

 reticulate pattern subterminally. Underside similar, paler. Radial veins from cell. Hind 

 wing, median fascia narrow, wing with strong reticulate pattern. Veins Sc+R 1 and Rs touch 

 at one point on length. 



Genitalia $ (PI. 54, figs 317-319) Anal papillae short. Genital plate highly modified and 

 sclerotized. Small transverse signum. 



(J. Wing, 14 mm. Colour and pattern as female but ground colour slightly lighter. An- 

 tennae ciliate. 



Genitalia o* (PI. 32, fig. 177). Uncus with lateral processes, brachia long. Juxta with small, 

 spiny, lateral lobes. Valves reduced, with large scale-tufts. Subscaphium lightly sclerotized, 

 spiny. Manica spined. Cornuti very small and slender. 



Discussion. The ocelli are well developed in this species. The male described 

 above is only tentatively associated with this species, the pattern and general 

 morphology of it are similar to the female. This species is similar to tincta, which 

 is known only from the male (for separation from that species see p. 83).

Striglina tincta sp. n. 



(PI. 7, fig. 29; PI. 33, fig. 178) 



o\ Wing, 15 mm. Vertex dark brown, frons rounded, scales produced slightly to point. 

 Ocelli present. Antennae ciliate. Labial palps with third segment 1/3 length of second, 

 upturned, reaching vertex. Eyes with interfacetal hairs. Thorax blackish brown. Hind 

 tibia with outer spur of distal pair shorter than inner spur, tibia flattened with large scale tuft. 

 Hind tarsi each with a pair of spines at distal end. Fore wing, pattern as in PL 7, fig. 29, 

 blackish brown, reticulations visible subapically and a few reticulations in anteriomedial 

 position. Radial veins from cell. Underside showing more reticulations than upper. Hind
