LTCLENE.— SETINOCHEOA. 
85 
Feeds on minute mosses; when disturbed the larva rolls itself into a ball, in which 
position the thick hair divides at the junction of each somite. 
Cocoon thickly set with the hairs of the larva ; the reddish pupa can be indistinctly 
seen through the web. 
Lyclene ruptifascia. (Plate CLVIII. fig. 1,2.) 
Expanse | inch. 
Male. Ochreousj fore wing with a black almost basal spot ; a black streak above it on 
the costa ; a waved subbasal band ; an inwardly oblique broad median band, with a spot 
beyond it at end of cell ; the submarginal band reduced to small irregularly placed spots 
between the nervules, which are larger and joined towards inner margin; a series of antecilial 
specks. Hind wing with a very indistinct transverse medial band. 
Allied to L. semifascia, which has two irregular median bands instead of the broad 
oblique one, and a highly dentate submarginal band. 
Lyclene varians. (Plate CLVIII. figs. 10, 20, 32, 33.) 
Expanse (J & ? i inch. 
Male. Head and thorax orange ; a black spot on each tegula ; abdomen black, fulvous 
at extremity. Fore wing : ground-colour orange, but so much suffused with smoky black 
that it only appears in small patches; in the most suft'used specimens the orange only appears 
as a small patch at the base and two short streaks along the costa, whilst in others it appears 
as small patches in the cell and along inner and outer margins. Hind wing entirely smokv 
black. 
Female with the fore wing less suffused with black ; in the most suffused specimens there 
is an orange patch at the base, two on the costa, one on inner margin, and a marginal orange 
band on which is a series of marginal black specks ; whilst in the least-suffused specimens 
the black is confined to three irregular bands, one subbasal, another medial from the costa 
to the first median nervule, and the third postmedial, all three coalescing below the median 
nervure ; the marginal black specks are prominent, and also the deep black subbasal speck 
which is present in all ; some orange also appears on the hind wing near the anal angle and 
on the cilia. 
Setiuochroa trimacula. (Plate CLVII. figs. 27, 28.) 
Expanse | inch. 
Male and Female. Head and collar yellow ; fore wing and thorax brownish black, with 
a yellow tinge ; fore wing with a subbasal black spot ; another towards end of cell and one 
beyond it ; a slight blackish mark beyond centre of inner margin, and another above centre 
of outer margin ; abdomen and hind wings smoky black ; the latter with an indistinct dark
