Expanse | inch. 
Male and Female. Greenish grey ; abdomen with very indistinct blackish bands. Fore 
wing with some oblique strigae from the costa ; antemedial slightly Avaved and postmedial 
curved black lines^ with some indistinct pale lines between them ; outer area suffused with 
black, with a pale waved submarginal line. Hind wing grey, with the postmedial curved line 
distinct ; the basal area with four indistinct w^aved dark lines, the outer area with one. 
In the male the subcostal groove is rufous. 
This species is congeneric with Bosara turgidata, Wlk., from Borneo, but not with 
B. dUatata, the type of his genus. 
Remodes nigripalpata, Wlk. (Plate CLXXI. fig. 1.) 
Sauris nigripalpata, Wile. Cat. xxiv. p. 1252.

Female. Head, palpi, and thorax olive-brown; abdomen pale fuscous. Fore wing olive-

GNAMPTOPTEEYX, g. n. 
Male. Antennse flattened, slightly laminate above and minutely ciliated below. Palpi 
thickly scaled and slightly upturned, the third joint not visible. Abdomen with lateral tufts, 
the tuft on the penultimate segment largest ; the terminal segment long, with a large anal 
tuft. Fore wing broad ; the inner margin distorted and crimped near the base, and bearing 
on the imdei'side a tuft of long hairs ; the second subcostal anastomosing with the first and 
then with the third ; the upper radial from the upper angle of the cell, the lower from the 
middle of the discocellulars ; the two medians from near the end of the cell, one from before 
the end ; the submedian slightly bent round the tuft of hairs. Hind wing rather narrow, the 
apex and outer margin rounded, the costa produced into a lobe near the base ; the costal 
nervure coming ofl: from the subcostal near the base and curving up to the outer part of the 
lobe, thus losing its Larentid character; the two subcostals from the end of the cell; the 
radial from the middle of the discocellulars ; two medians from near the lower angle of cell, 
one from before the end ; a submedian nervure. 
Female with the hind wing of the normal shape, and the costal nervure anastomosing 
Avith the subcostal to near the end of the cell.
