Annals of the Transvaal Museum 35 
spots, confluent to a single small spot on segments 5 and 6, a series towards 
apex of segments, and a minute apical dot on each segment; cilia white, 
slightly mixed with blackish on markings. 
Transvaal, Pretoria, in November (Janse) ; one specimen. A very distinct 
species, perhaps nearest the Indian ochrozona. 
Microschismus cymatias n.sp. 
$ 22 mm. Head light grey, crown suffused with white except centrally. 
Palpi 7, dark grey, apex of terminal joint whitish. Thorax white, shoulders 
and a median stripe suffused with dark grey. Abdomen grey mixed with white. 
Forewings light fuscous irrorated with dark fuscous; costa to beyond middle 
suffused with white, with five small dark fuscous spots, first basal; small 
cloudy white spots in disc at £ and towards costa at f , latter preceded and 
followed by small dark spots; a faint whitish shade from beneath middle of 
costa to before middle of dorsum; three distinct waved white lines crossing 
wing posteriorly, last two terminated on costa by small white rings; a dark 
fuscous apical dot on each segment, edged anteriorly by a white mark : cilia 
pale fuscous sprinkled with dark fuscous, barred with white on markings. 
Hindwings white, faintly infuscated on a shade before middle; narrow grey 
fasciae at § and towards apex of segments; a dark fuscous apical dot on each 
segment; cilia white, on fasciae grey. 
Transvaal, Pretoria, in April (Janse); one specimen. 
COPROMORPHIDAE 
Sisyroxena syncentra Meyr. 
$ 26 mm. Tongue apparently absent. Labial palpi rather long, porrected, 
much thickened with dense scales throughout, second joint with rough ex- 
panded scales above towards apex, terminal joint short, obtuse. Maxillary 
palpi imperceptible. Shoulders and thoracic crest mixed with dark fuscous. 
Forewings with a terminal series of small dark fuscous dots; a very obscure 
suffused fuscous strigulation extending over wing from \ to near termen, with 
some scattered black scales. 
Transvaal, Pretoria, in March (Janse) ; one specimen. Described originally 
from a male from Madagascar, which had lost its palpi; the above particulars 
are therefore supplementary to the first description. 
HELIOZELIDAE 
Antispila argyrozona n.sp. 
$ 5 mm. Head and thorax shining bronze. Palpi extremely short, whitish. 
Abdomen dark grey. Forewings rather broad-lanceolate; deep purple with 
indigo-blue and green reflections ; a narrow straight transverse silvery-metallic 
fascia just beyond middle: cilia dark grey, tinged with purple towards base. 
Hindwings and cilia dark grey. 
Zululand, Eshowe, in January (Janse); one specimen. 
HELIODINIDAE 
Eretmocera fuscipennis Zell. 
As explained in a note in the Entomologist’ s Monthly Magazine, Vol. liii, 
p. 62 (1917), I now conclude that lunifera Zell., derogatella Walk., miniata 
Wals., dor sistrigata Wals., and Carter i Wals. are all forms of fuscipennis.
