86. Genus: Holochrea limps. 
Proboscis strong, the short, slender palpi are erect; male antennae ciliated; tibiae with long spurs; 
the <$ exhibits long lateral hair-tufts on the 3rd abdominal ring, and on the forewing beneath in the cell a white 
scent-scale spot covered by the very much expanded costal margin of the hindwing; the latter shows a deep 
excision near the apex. On the forewing all the veins from the 2nd subcostal vein to the 1st radial rise on one 
footstalk, only the 1st subcostal vein rising separately from the cell. On the hindwing the 1st median ana¬ 
stomoses with the 3rd radial, and the subcostal with the 1st radial. 
H. xanthogramma Hmps. (16 b). The only little species is orange-yellow; at the costal margin behind 
the middle a black clot from which a curved orange line extends obliquely to the margin above the proximal 
angle. Sangir. 
87. Genus: Tarnpea Snell. 
Proboscis strong; the slender, porrect palpi just project yet beyond the forehead; male antennae with 
bristly ciliae. The shape of the wings is very much like in the preceding, the scent-scale spot on the forewing 
beneath in the cell is present, too, as well as the lobe of the costa on the hindwing, the costa itself being fringed 
with long hairs. The venation of the forewing is also rather similar, but the two lower radial veins rise on a 
long footstalk; on the hindwing the venation is like in the preceding genus. 
T. lithosioides Snell., nec Hmps. (= Ocrosia reversa limps.) (16 b as reversa). The G is unicolorously 
reddish-orange, the $ of a deeper orange, abdomen blackish-brownish with an orange anal tuft. Hinclwing 
blackish-brown with a yellow border and fringes. Borneo, Java.

88. Genus : Maeiuliima Wh\ 
About 20 small species of dim colours with a well developed proboscis, slender, short, erect palpi and 
in the <$ ciliated antennae; tibiae with long spurs. The abdominal end of the <$ shows lateral hair-tufts and a 
strongly developed anal tuft. The short and broad forewing has a very convex costal margin exhibiting before 
the apex a faint or also deep excision; the distal margin is very much produced above the middle? On the forewing 
the 1st radial comes from below the upper cell-angle; the three lower subcostal veins either rise on a joint foot¬ 
stalk, in which case the costal margin shows in the middle an angular projection with a hair-tuft, on which 
Turner foimdecl his subgenus Psapharacis ; or the 4th subcostal is absent (Macaduma sens, strict.). On the 
hindwing the 1st median and 3rd radial as well as the subcostal and 1st radial are petioled. Nearly all the 
species have an expanse of about 20 mm, the length of the wings being about 8 to 9 mm. Most of the species 
have come to England by recent captures from New Guinea, and their types are at present not available for us. 
M. tortricella Wlcr. Head and thorax chestnut-brown with a purple reflection; abdomen brownish, 
anal tuft yellow. Forewings chestnut-brown, at the costal and proximal margins with a purple reflection. 
Hindwings yellowish-white, towards the margin of a deeper ochreous-yellow. In the $ the head, thorax and 
forewings are of a darker reddish-brown. Hindwings and anal tuft brownish. Assam, Java, New Guinea. 
M. foliacea Bothsch. Antennae brown; head and thorax chestnut-brown; abdomen sooty grey, anal 
tuft yellowish. Foreving yellowish-brown, a broad postmedian transverse band and a cuneifoim marginal 
band are darker; between these bands the ground-colour is more yellowish. Forewing at the apex very much 
excised and in the middle of the border very lobate. Hindwing in the basal half cinnamon-grey, distally more 
dusty-grey. The $ has almost unicolorously chestnut-brown forewings. Length of forewings: 9 1 /, mm. Mount 
Goliath and Kumusi River (New Guinea). 
M. castaneogriseata Bothsch. Antennae, head and thorax reddish-brown intermixed with bluish scales; 
abdomen greyish-brown. Forewings reddish chocolate-brown, 2 postmedian, parallel, transverse lines and 
an indistinct antemarginal line chestnut-red. Hindwings yellowish grey, dusted with a reddish violet. Mount 
Goliath in Dutch New Guinea (January). 
M. bipunctata B.-Bak. is a somewhat larger species with an expanse of 28 mm. Head and thorax reddish- 
brown, abdomen more greyish-brown. Forewings dark red-brown, in the discal area still darker, at the cell-end 
2 small white dots situate behind one another. Hindwings yellowish grey, at the margin brownish. Dinawa, 
Aroa River, Ekeikei. 
M. tortricoides Bothsch. Body chestnut-brown. Forewings coloured the same, strewn with metallic 
light blue and pearl-coloured scales; apex more reddish; a large Isabel-yellow r discal spot from the costal margin 
to the lower radial vein. Hindwing golden orange with a blackish-brown margin. Length of forewings: 12 mm.
