lanceolate ; dark fuscous ; second discal stigma large, blackish, partially 

 edged with whitish ; a small oblique white spot on costa somewhat before 

 this; a small white spot on costa towards apex: cilia fuscous. Hindwings 

 and cilia grey.

Microcolona tumulifera n. sp. 



e? 8 mm. Head and thorax brownish- ochreous irrorated with blackish, 

 face ochreous-whitish. Palpi stout, pale ochreous, with four rings of 

 blackish irroration. Abdomen whitish-ochreous sprinkled with grey. Fore- 

 wings narrowly elongate-lanceolate ; ochreous-brown irregularly irrorated 

 with blackish, appearing to indicate longitudinal streaks; a very large 

 subdorsal tuft at l / 3 , a very small one in disc before middle, a moderate 

 subdorsal tuft beyond middle, aud a large transverse tuft mixed with

Java, Pekalongan (van Deventer); one specimen. 



Zanclarches n. g. 



Head smooth, rounded; ocelli small, posterior; tongue developed. 

 Antennae 3 / 4 , in çf shortly ciliated, basal joint elongate, without pecten. 

 Labial palpi very long, recurved, slender, smooth, terminal joint longer 

 than second, acute. Maxillary palpi very short, filiform, drooping. Poste- 

 rior tibiae rough-scaled above. Forewings with small tufts of scales; lb 

 furcate, 2 from near angle, 7 and 8 stalked, 7 to costa, 11 from middle. 

 Hindwings 2 / 3 , narrow-lanceolate, cilia 3; 2 — 5 parallel, 6 and 7 some- 

 what approximated at base.
