gently arched, apex pointed, termen very obliquely rounded; pale glossy 
ochreous, with a few fuscous scales ; base of costa dark fuscous ; a rather large 
dark fuscous dot towards costa at plical and second discal stigmata rather 
large, dark fuscous: cilia pale ochreous, with minute fuscous basal dots on 
veins. Hind wings light grey; cilia pale greyish-ochreous. 
Natal, Karkloof, in January (Janse); one specimen. 
Acraeologa n.g. 
Head smooth; ocelli small, posterior; tongue developed. Antennae f , in 
^ simple, basal joint very elongate, without pecten. Labial palpi very long, 
recurved, second joint somewhat thickened with scales, somewhat rough 
towards apex beneath, terminal joint longer than second, slender, acute. 
Maxillary palpi very short, filiform, appressed to tongue. Posterior tibiae 
shortly rough-scaled above. Forewings with i h furcate, 2 from towards angle, 
6 and 7 out of 8, 7 to costa, ii from middle. Hind wings under i, elongate- 
trapezoidal, apex long-produced, acute, termen rectangularly emarginate, 
cilia 2; 3-5 somewhat approximated, 6 and 7 long-stalked. 
Possibly near Sitotroga, but precise affinity dubious.

Aristotelia galeotis Meyr. 
Transvaal, Pretoria, in February and March (Swierstra) ; two specimens. 
Only known hitherto from Ceylon; it may be attached to some cultivated 
plant. 
Coniogyra n.g. 
Head with appressed scales; ocelli posterior; tongue developed. Antennae 
|, basal joint moderate, without pecten. Labial palpi moderate, slightly 
curved, subascending, slender, with appressed scales, terminal joint somewhat 
shorter than second, pointed. Maxillary palpi obsolete. Posterior tibiae 
clothed with hairs above. Forewings with 2 from angle, 3 absent, 7 and 8

zoidal, apex pointed, produced, termen sinuate, cilia 3; 3 and 4 connate,
