STUDIES IN AUSTRALIAN LEPIDGPTERA. \\*J 
ending in 5 or 6 streaksldiverging towards termen ; a fine line from 
beneath costa at f obliquely outwards almost to termen, then 
rounded and diverging from termen, but above tornus acutely 
angled and running into termen ; a prominent triangular fuscous 
suhapical spot on costa ; an interrupted fuscous terminal line ; cilia 
white, "apices fuscous. Hiudwings with termen sinuate; 4t and 5 
stalked ; whitish ; cilia white. 
Not closely allied to the preceding, but I think it must be placed 
in the same genus. The variations in 5 of hindwings occur also in 
Talis. 
Type in Coll. Turner. 
N.A. Port Darwin, in December ; one specimen received from 
Mr. F. P. Dodd. 
TALIS TEISSOMOCHLA n. sp. 
\rpicr(jo[xoy\o^, three-barred.] 
$. 13-17 mm. Head orange. Palpi moderate (3) ; orange. 
Antenna? whitish-grey ; in $ thickened and minutely ciliated (i). 
Thorax orange, with a white central stripe. Abdomen white, dorsum 
of basal segments and of base of tuft orange. Legs white ; anterior 
pair pale fuscous. Forewings triangular, costa moderately arched, 
apex round-pointed, termen straight, rounded beneath, sightly 
oblique; markings silvery- white, narrowly edged with blackish; a 
streak along costa from near base to near middle, gradually diverging 
from costa and thickened, then abruptly curved upwards from near 
middle of disc to apex ; a second straight broad streak from base 
beneath mid-line, ending abruptly shortly before termen ; a third 
narrower streak along dorsum nearly to tornus ; a fine blackish 
terminal line ; cilia white, apices dark-fuscous. Hindwmgs with 
termen rounded ; grey ; cilia white. 
Nearest T. aurmitiaca, Meyr., but very distinct. 
Type in Coll. Turner. 
N.A. Port Darwin, in January and November ; two specimens 
received jfrom Mr. F. P. Dodd.
