A REVISION OF THE AUSTRALIAN NOLID AE (LEPIDOPTERA) . 47 
two-thirds dorsum, a white fascia edged by this line to middle of disc, 
then expanding beyond it to tornus; subterminal line slender, inter- 
rupted, or reduced to dots ; cilia pale grey. Hindwings and cilia whitish. 
HampsUn made the genus Eurynola for this species, distinguishing 
it from Roeselia by the separate origin of vein 7 of the forewings ; but 
I find that in five examples this vein is connate with 7, 8, 9 in three, 
stalked in two. 
North Queensland: Cape York in October and May; Kuranda in 
October; five specimens. Also from Cooktown. 
8. Gen. Aedemon nov. 
alSrjfjLOJV, modest. 
Pace not prominent. Palpi rather short, obliquely ascending; 
second joint moderately thickened with rough scales; terminal joint 
very small. Antennae in male bipectinate. Thorax with rough posterior 
■crest. Abdomen without crests. Legs smooth. Fore wings with 2 from 
shortly before angle, 3 from angle, 4 and 5 very closely approximated 
for some distance, 6 from well below angle, 7, 8, 9 stalked, 7 separating 
before 9, 10 and 11, separate. Hindwings with cell three-fifths, broad; 
:2 from three-fourths, 3 and 4 connate, 5 well separate, 6 and 7 stalked, 
12 anastomosing with cell to beyond middle.

$ , 30 mm. Head and thorax grey. Palpi 1 and a fourth ; grey, 
upper edge fuscous!. Antennae grey; pectinations in male 3, extreme 
apex simple. Abdomen grey-whitish. Legs grey ; posterior pair whitish. 
Forewings elongate-triangular, costa strongly arched; grey with dark 
fuscous markings; tufts small, second and third approximated, third 
tuft before middle ; antemedian line from one-fourth costa to two-fifths 
■dorsum, strongly outwardly curved, indented above margin; a roughly 
parallel wavy line from one-third costa to mid-dorsum; several short 
streaks on bases of veins arising from cell; postmedian line from three- 
fourths costa to three-fourths dorsum, slender, sharply defined, with an 
acute tooth beneath costa followed by smaller dentations, partly edged 
with whitish posteriorly ; a faint pale erenulate subterminal line ; cilia 
grey. Hindwings grey-whitish with a narrow fuscous terminal band; 
cilia whitish. 
Queensland: Stanthorpe in January (W. B. Barnard); one
