MICRO-LBPIDOPTERA. 



107 



apex of dorsal streak ; a slightly excurved silvery transverse line just beyond 

 these, apical area beyond this orange, including a small dot of black and silvery 

 scales just before apex edged above by a white dot, and small suffused white 

 spot on termen beneath apex : cilia white, round apex a black basal line, across 

 apex an oblique black hook. Hindwings light grey ; cilia pale grey. 



Upolu, Malololelei, 2,000 feet, June ; 1 ex. Allied to Australian forms, 

 especially to E. trigonophora. 



104. Acrocercops homalacta, n. sp. 



$ 7 mm. Head silvery-white. Palpi slender, white, an apical ring of 

 second joint and median ring of terminal suffused dark fuscous. Thorax 

 fuscous, tegulae silvery-white, shoulders dark fuscous. Forewings rather 

 dark fuscous ; markings silvery-white, edged black scales ; a narrow basal 

 fascia ; a moderately broad slightly oblique fascia at f , hardly dilated down- 

 wards ; a narrower somewhat oblique even fascia beyond middle ; a narrow 

 line at § parallel to this, interrupted in middle ; a slightly oblique fasciate spot 

 from costa at f , its apex shortly obtuse-pointed but touching termen ; a small 

 apical spot partly in cilia, limited posteriorly by a black bar, cilia otherwise 

 pale grey with dark median line on tornus, a white bar from lower end of ante- 

 apical spot. Hindwings rather dark grey ; cilia grey. 



Upolu, Malololelei, 2,000 feet, April ; 1 ex. Closely related to the Indian 

 A. cathedraea and the African A. bifasciata, which (with other closely allied 

 species) doubtless represent a single original type. 



105. Acrocercops nebropa, n. sp. 



9 mm. Head pale ochreous-grey, face white. Palpi smooth, white, 

 terminal joint greyish anteriorly. Thorax brassy- white, tegulae brassy -yellowish. 

 Forewings deep brassy-yellowish with faint greyish tinge, disc on anterior half 

 pale brassy -yellow ; silvery- white direct fasciae at f and f , first moderate, 

 narrowed on costa, second broader, immediately before second a direct silvery 

 striga from costa reaching more than half across wing, edged black on both 

 sides ; a large round black apical spot : cilia ochreous-whitish, a dark grey 

 median shade, on tornal area tinged grey. Hindwings and cilia grey. 



Upolu, Malololelei, 2,000 feet, June ; 1 ex. Belongs to sauropis group, 

 but very distinct.
