HEEMINIID^. 
of the fringe : secondaries greyish brown, darker and tinted with lilacine below the subcostal 
vein ; crossed by three blackish stripes^ the outermost being darkest, angular, and edged with 
whitish ; marginal spots and fringe as in primaries : body dark purplish brown ; abdomen 
paler. Wings below brown, irrorated with white, stripes wider than above, rufous brown ; 
discoidal spots black : body brown. Expanse of wings 33-35 millim. 
Dharmsala ; at sugar during the rains. 
Pseudaglossa atrata. (Plate CXXXIV. fig. 6.) 
Primaries bronze-brown, slightly tinted with lilac ; a black subbasal costal dash followed 
by an irregularly sinuated black line across the basal fourth ; a sinuous blackish central 
band enclosing a yellow-centred black reniform spot ; an angular black marking beyond the 
cell and an irregularly zigzag black submarginal line commencing in a quadrate subapical 
spot ; three yellow costal dots towards apex ; a marginal series of black dots : secondaries 
silvery gi'ey : thorax brown ; abdomen grey, with a brown and black dorsal tuft on basal 
segment. Under surface grey ; costal margin of primaries dark, with four pale dots towards 
apex ; fringes with a pale white basal line. Expanse of wings 18 millim. 
Dharmsala. 
Only two slightly worn examples of this little species were obtained. The genus 
Pseudaglossa seems to be much more nearly allied to Epizeiixis than to Aglossa. 
HERMINIA, Latr. 
Herminia palumbina. (Plate CXXXIV. fig. 9.) 
Near to H. duplexa of Moore (Lep. Atk. pi. vi. fig. 18) ; larger : the primaries slightly 
yellower in tint ; the reniform spot narrower and filled in with black ; the black central 
costal dash longer, more oblique, running parallel to but beyond the reniform spot, forming 
the commencement of a regularly-arched, denticulated, discal line, whereas that of H. duplexa 
starts independently from costa and is irregular; the submarginal black and white stripe 
abruptly and widely incised below apex, a diffused blackish shade, tending to unite it to the 
deutated line, below the incision : secondaries appai'ently very similar : antennae less strongly 
ciliated in the male. Expanse of wings 28 millim. 
Dharmsala ; at sugar in July. 
Four examples Avere obtained by Mr. Hocking, all of them differing from A'lr, Moore's 
figure of H. duplexa in the above characters.
