The name should be restricted to the male type to avoid confusion 

 with the "female type" ; as there are two closely allied species most 

 easily separable on the male antennae. 



Hampson's figure is poor, and conveys a wrong impression in 

 regard to the nature of the s. t. line, which, while often obsolescent, 

 is bent inward in the space opposite the cell between veins 6-4. The 

 antennae of the male are simple with short cilia. 



Namangana andrena Sm.

This species is closely allied to leucorcna; but the antennae are 

 heavily beaded, with long cilia. The exact course of the s. t. line is 

 not well shown in the three specimens (one a "cotype") before the 

 authors, but it appears to be nearly as in leucorcna. 



Namangana revellata sp. nov. 



Antennae of male beaded, with moderate cilia. Head and thorax brown 

 mixed with grey, the scales pale tipped. Abdomen somewhat paler. Primaries- 

 ground color luteous-brown, heavily dusted with blackish scales and appearing 

 greyish ; ordinary lines only slightly darker than the ground color and more 

 or less obsolescent ; t. a. line double, drawn in to a point on vein 1, its course 

 not discernible ; t. p. line excurved ai-ound cell, incurved below ; small obso- 

 lescent dots in the s. t. space on the veins; s. t. line rather indistinct, erect be- 

 tween costa and vein 7, thence bent at a right angle toward the outer margin 

 a distance of nearly half the terminal space, thence nearly parallel to the outer 

 margin, without conspicuous indentation, to the inner margin ; a thin black 

 terminal line; orbicular U-shaped, incomplete, with paler outline; reniform 

 normal in shape, not distinct, its base marked by white due to some white 

 scaling on the intersecting median vein; claviform obsolete; fringe luteous 

 interlined and tipped with fuscous. Secondaries: whitish; with scattered fuscous 

 scales, fuscous marked veins and margins ; a thin black terminal line ; fringe, 

 luteous at base, followed by a fuscous interline, the outer part white. Beneath : 

 primaries fuscous crossed by a slightly darker t. p. line ; fringe as on upper 

 side: secondaries; white, heavily suffused with fuscous along the costal and 

 outer margins, this suffusion darkening about one-half of the area; veins slightly 

 darker distally; a thin blackish terminal line; fringe luteous at base, interlined 

 darker, tips white somewhat tinged with grey. 



Expanse: Z2-Z7 mm. 



A dull, poorly marked species, difficult to describe satisfactorily; 

 similar to leucorcna and andrena but differing from both of these ; 

 the s. t. line clearer and more nearly parallel to the outer margin below
