legs with some reddish tinge. Wing expanse 30 mm; forewing with costa gently arched, apex acute, colour 
whitish, irrorated with fuscous-brown, lines indistinct, postmedian very slender, oblique outward from costa, 
angled near costa and in the middle, thence to % hindmargin, a fairly broad fuscous-brown terminal band, its 
proximal edge suffused, containing a fine, whitish, wavy submarginal line; hindwing with termen slightly wavy, 
irroration densest towards termen. no markings except a faint whitish submarginal line. Both wings beneath 
with irroration and cell-dots. 
E. aprepta Turn. 36 mm. Palpus 2 y 4 . Forewing broad, termen slightly oblique, slightly crenulate; aprepta. 
pale fuscous, with dark basal patch and median band; median band with proximal edge at %, slightly curved 
outward and finely dentate, distal edge at %, crenulate, with a bend “inwards” behind the middle; cell-dot 
darker, jolaced on the band, preceded and followed by a wavy transverse line, best marked towards costa; sub- 
terminal crenulate, whitish; terminal slender. Hindwing rounded, crenulate; pale grey, unmarked. Victoria: 
Kyneton, December, only the type and a dubious $ from Castlemaine known. 
E. trissocyma Turn. 22 mm. Palpus 2 1 q. Antennal ciliation minute. Fore wing with costa nearly trissocyma. 
straight, termen bowed, oblique, wavy; whitish with oblique fuscous lines; a moderate basal patch; antemedian 
line at %, broad, gently outcurved; cell-dot dark fuscous; a broad three-fold line from % costa to % hindmargin, 
slightly outbent near costa and again in middle; other lines very fine and incomplete; terminal line w r ell marked, 
interrupted on the veins. Hindwing with termen slightly rounded, wavy; the numerous lines only well developed 
in posterior part. Jervis Bay, New South Wales. 
E. poliophasma Turn. (28 a). S', 36—38 mm; 32 mm. Palpus 2%. Antennal ciliation of $ 1 4 . A poliophasma. 
rather smooth-winged, glossy species with the markings extremely feeble on the forewing, wanting on the paler 
hindwing and on the underside. Mount Kosciusko, 5000 feet, December. 
E. oxyodonta Turn. A $ from Perth, Western Australia, expanding 28 mm. Palpus 2. Forewing with oxyodonta. 
termen nearly straight, oblique, wavy; whitish, with fuscous markings; a small 3-lined basal patch; median 
band broad, its proximal edge broadly dark, strongly concave and twice indented, its distal fine, dark-fuscous, 
from % costa, thickened before middle, projecting slightly near costa, then angularly indented, centrally with 
a strong double-toothed projection, the anterior tooth the more prominent and acute, posterior part incurved 
and dentate; suffused subterminal maculation. Hindwing with termen slightly rounded, wavy; whitish grey, 
with 4 or 5 faint lines, better marked at hindmargin; postmedian with an acute central tooth; terminal line 
interrupted. 
E. panochra Turn. (28 a). Expanse 28—32 mm. Palpus 2 y 2 . Antenna of with ciliation %. Forewing panochra. 
broad, termen faintly sinuous; ochreous-whitish, with slight pale-grey suffusion, stronger towards termen; post¬ 
median nearly straight, faintly dentate, in some examples with a third line or series of dots beyond it; fringe 
dark grey, tipped with white except at costa, behind apex and at tornus. Hindwing above without markings, 
beneath with cell-dot, postmedian and subterminal lines; forewing beneath suffused with drab. New South 
Wales: Mount Kosciusko; Victoria: Mount Hotham. Mount St. Bernard; flies at 5000 feet elevation. 
E. plesia Turn. (28 b). This and the succeeding few species recall Horisme in their jDattern and their plesia. 
somewhat crenulate hindwings and may perhaps be found to be really akin to the mortuata group of that genus; 
but they are not sufficiently crested, according to our present taxonomic system, plesia differs structurally 
from squamulata in its considerably longer palpus (about 2). Gisborne. 
E. squamulata Warr. (28 b). Palpus slender and reaching very little beyond face. Dark, with numerous squamulata. 
ill-defined lines, the median band little darkened. Hindwing with termen somewhat concave between the radials 
Victoria and Tasmania, the type G (not as printed in the original description) not exactly localized. 
E. arachnitis Turn. (28 b). Palpus still longer than in plesia (nearly 3). Ground-colour paler, lines arachnitis. 
slender, rather regular. I have only the $ before me and the original description refers also to this sex. Our 
figure unfortunately does not bring out the sinuosity of the termen and of the postmedian line and therefore 
makes a somewhat erroneous impression. Gisborne. 
E. severata Guen. (= perfectata Walk., scitiferata Walk., promptata Walk.) (28 a). Variable in size, but severata. 
generally larger than the three preceding. Forewing with termen in its posterior part rather strongly oblique, 
the oblique basal and median bands well defined at least at their margins, the postmedian continuing oblique 
outwards to the costa; hindwing beneath generally paler or mixed with whitish. Palpus about as in plesia.
