Acacia. 
12. Cryptophaga sarcinota, Meyr. Meyrick. Male, 37 mm. ; 
antennae, white ; pectinations, 1^. Female, 51 mm.

13. Cryptophaga acroleuca, n. sp. Male, 32-34 mm. ; antennal 
pectinations, f . Female, 40-62 mm. Forewings with vein 2 from f ;

reddish ; annulated with black. Forewings narrow oblong, costa almost 
straight, apex round-pointed, hindmargin obliquely rounded ; dark 
ochreous-brown, a dark dot in disc at i; a second, sometimes double, 
on fold below middle, and two placed transversely in disc at the 
lower somewhat anterior ; three black dots on apical ^ of costa, some- 
times obsolete; a narrow black line along hindmargin, sometimes 
interrupted ; cilia dark ochreous-brown. Hindwings with hindmargin

oblong, somewhat dilated posteriority, costa slightly arched, apex

Closely allied to G. sarcinota, Meyr., but appears a good species. 
The male is very different in general appearance. The female may be 
best distinguished by the whitish apices of the hindwings. Brisbane : 
a series bred by Mr. Illidge from Eucalyptus saligna. Also found on 
other species of this genu3.
