middle of termen ; terminal edge with a narrow brownish-black interrupted 
line, above running before apex to costa. Cilia fulvous, pale ochreous- 
greyish in tornus. Hind wing pale ochreous, becoming whitish and semi- 
pellucent towards tornus, towards apex transversely strigulated with 
dark grey. Cilia pale ochreous, with a faint greyish antemedian shade, 
with a grey suffused blotch opposite apex, whitish along lower part of 
termen, in tornus and along dorsum. 
Tegumen erect. Uncus moderate, top rather slender, truncate. Socius 
rather large, pending. Gnathos slender. Transtilla knob strongly sclerotized, 
and with a dentate strong labis. Valva rounded, somewhat concave, with 
a round fold in disc. Vinculum slender. Aedoeagus strong, little curved

For the revised conception of this genus we refer to pages 102-103 of 
part I of this paper. 
The genus is of New Zealandian and Australian distribution. Meyrick 
described two species from Papua in later years {Trans. Ent. Soc. London, 
vol. 87, pp. 506 and 507, 1938), material of which we were able to study 
in the British Museum. The first of this species {Harmologa athliopa) was 
described after a series of one damaged male specimen with head and 
abdomen missing — tentatively we enclose this species in the following 
key — and four female specimens which have nothing whatever to do 
either with the above mentioned male, or with the genus Harmologa. The 
second species, Harmologa kalirrhotia, appears to be a Schoenotenes.
