There is one d example iu the British Museum, from Ilakodadi. 

 The species is evidently allied to H. atrata, Lepchn. (altaica, 

 Fischer), but differs in its black legs, and in the complete, broad, 

 fuscous margin of the hind wings. 



Fam. LIMNO PHILIPS. 



G-RAMMATAULius, Kolenati. 



Grammataulius brevilinea, n. sp. G. fusco-niger, subtus griseo- 

 ochraceus; capite, prothorace, mesothoraceque in medio lurido-rufis. 

 Pedes griseo-flavi ; tibiis tarsisque nigro-spinosis. Ala; anticae angu- 

 statae, elongatae, ad apicem vix dilatatae; margine apicali obliquo, paullo 

 exciso ; testaceae, rufo-brunneo nebulosse, pterostigniate, area suturali 

 cellulaque apicali tertia fuscis, lineis duabus brevibus in area inter- 

 clavali nigris ; posticae albidae, hyalinae, ad apicem flavescentes ; cellula 

 apicali tertia pallide fuscescente ( $ ). Long. corp. 8 lin. ( = 16 mill.); 

 exp. alar. 20 lin. (=43 mill.). 



Hab. Japonia (in Mus. auct.). 



Head above lurid reddish, suffused with fuscous in the middle, quite 

 flat, triangularly produced in front, truncate behind ; face and palpi 

 testaceous ; eyes black, reticulated with grey, Pronotum large, trans- 

 versely quadrangular, divided in the middle by a longitudinal line, 

 reddish. Mesonotum broadly black at the sides, and with a broad 

 longitudinal reddish middle band. Metanotum black, somewhat piceous. 

 The whole under-surface of the body greyish ochreous. Legs greyish 

 yellow, tibiae and tarsi with numerous black spines, anterior femora 

 sometimes fuscescent internally. Abdomen fuscous above, greyish 

 ochreous beneath : in the female are two long, cylindrical, testaceous, 

 divergent, finger-shaped appendices ; beneath these a short, broad, 

 up-directed plate, which is deeply excised at the apex, and two large, 

 oval, obtuse, lateral valves (or inferior appendices). (PI. II. fig. 1.) 



Anterior wings long and narrow, the costal inner margins nearly parallel, 

 the apex slightly dilated, the apical margin oblique, excised at the sixth 

 apical cell : colour dull testaceous, suffused with pale reddish brown, 

 the apical portion with paler irrorations ; pterostigma fuscous, third 

 apical cell fuscous with some pale dots, sutural area fuscous, but leav- 

 ing the extreme inner margin pale ; area interclavalis with two short 

 longitudinal black lines; veins testaceous. Posterior wings broad, 

 subhyaline, the apex and pterostigmatical region yellowish ; third apical 

 cellule suffused with pale fuscous ; radius crossing the first apical 

 sector at its extremity, forming a fork. (The neuration in each of my 

 two examples is irregular : in one the third apical sector in both an- 

 terior wings, and in the right posterior wing, is furcate at its extre-
