and continues along this crease through the depression at the furcation 
of the median vein, continuing without altering its course out of the end 
of the crease passing over the intervening bend of the median vein to 
the wing margin ; this last portion shows the wing to be, not angular as at 
the crease, but bowed, and leaves no mark to indicate the course; and 
further the surface is bowed between the alula and the crease, again 
leaving no mark when the wing is flattened. 
Key to species of the bkeviscapa-group.

Characters given in the key are taken from descriptions, as the 
material available for study is insufficient for a full revision. It will be 
noted that not only does sexual dimorphism occur within the* group, but 
also the males of three species are unknown, as also the female of one ; 
hence it may be considered that subarmata and mastersi are opposite 
sexes of the same species, but colour marks and their respective habitats 
differ so widely that they cannot be conspecific.

Ferguson overlooked this synonymy and neither he nor I had seen 
Yictorian specimens, but judged the identity from specimens found in 
New South Wales. As markings are liable to variation in this group, 
such small discrepancies as those found in the descriptions arc not 
important enough, nor sufficient in number, to permit acceptance of 
more than one species. Moreover, the genus is mainly a northern one,
