STRIGLINA. By M. Gaede. 
the centre. Hindwing with numerous red-brown striae and black dots. Both wings with a small black discal 
spot and black marginal dots. $ 24 mm. Friendly Is. 
flavidis- S. flavidiscalis limps. Forewing dark brown with numerous black striae which enclose yellowish 
calls. S p 0 t s in the median area. A larger yellow spot behind the cell-end and one spot each below the apex and vein 
7. Hindwing likewise with many black striae. As it is also described from Singapore and of the same size, it 
is presumably only a form of castaneata (91 f). 
strigigra- S. strigigrapha limps. is coloured like flavidiscalis. The striae in the marginal area are arranged in pairs 
plm. w ith grey filling. A conspicuous black spot behind the cross-vein. Hindwing also with striae arranged in pairs. 
A greyish-brown band from the costal margin to the lower cell-angle, and behind it a spot at the costal margin. 
(J 27 mm. Sarawak. 
lilacina. S. lilacifia Warr. (= loxomita Trnr.) (91 f). Forewing lilac grey, somewhat red-brown at the base 
and costal margin. The distal half sometimes with rows of thick dark dots between the veins. Costal margin 
pale yellow with a few black dots behind the middle. At the cross-vein there is sometimes a large square dark 
red-brown spot which touches an oblong larger one between veins 2 and 4. Hindwing with rows of dark dots 
and traces of a reddish median shadow. $ 29 mm. Penang, Java. 
ndistincta. S. hldistiiicta Gaede is allied to lilacina, somewhat larger. The spots on the forewing, which are present 
in typical lilacina, are absent here. The lower part of a dark median band continued on the hindwing is 
in the centre of the inner margin. Beneath exactly like mediosecta (91 e), above separated by the dark colour 
and on the hindwing by the band. 33 mm. New Guinea. 
mediosec- S. mediosecta Warr. (91 e). Forewing dull reddish-brown, with a treble dark interior line; median 
ta • line double, enclosing a dai'k area which is very broad in front, very narrow behind. Distal third of the wing 
darker brown, bordered inside by a double concave line. Costal margin fine pale ochreous. The whole wing 
with dark striae. Hindwing similar, but the striae form dark blotches between the veins. The lighter basal 
area is defined by a dark line. $ more reddish, less brown. 36—38 mm. Key Is. 
varicgata. S. variegata Warr. (91 f). Forewing pale ochreous, marking red-brown, costal margin with large black 
spots; 3 dark transverse bands distally angled in the middle, and a few dark spots before the margin. Hinclwing 
with a very indistinct broad median and distal band. The hindwing is a little angular at the centre of the 
distal margin, whereby the species is easily recognizable. 26—33 mm. New Guinea. 
nigripunc- S. nigripuiictata Warr. (91 f). Forewing grey straw-colour, costal margin with 5 brown dots which 
icita. are intensified towards the apex. An olive grey irregular median band proceeds from the third dot, the fourth 
and fifth are confluent below the costal margin, from where an interrupted submarginal band proceeds. The 
whole wing is covered with greyish-brown reticulate lines. Submarginal band of hindwing narrower but con¬ 
tinuous. A round black spot above the anal angle. $ greyer, especially at the distal margin. Costal-marginal 
spots grey, not brown; bands interrupted. A straight greyish-brown line from the apex to 2 / 5 of inner margin, 
continued on the hindwing to y 3 of inner margin. 36—42 mm. New Guinea. 
rufocasta- S. ruf ocastarsea Rothsch. Bright nut-brown, with brown striae. Forewing with a curved dark line 
nea • from % of costal margin to 3 / 5 of inner margin. This line is crossed by another line proceeding from % 
of the costal margin, cutting the first at vein 8 and ending at vein 2 at the margin. Hindwing with an in¬ 
terior line i/ 3 from the base, and one from the centre of the costal margin to vein 3 near the margin. $ 30 mm. 
Dutch New Guinea. 
hyperbo- S, hyperbolica Warr. (31 f). Nut-brown with few blackish-brown striae forming an incomplete re- 
hca. ticulation. A dark brown line from % of inner margin obliquely outwards and at vein 6 obtusely rectangular 
to the costal margin at 3 / 5 . A somewhat less distinct line behind it is introangular at the same place, so 
that both are almost contiguous there, then continued to the anal angle. Sometimes 3 black dots at the costal 
margin behind the middle. Two similar, more separated lines on the hindwing. 30—33 mm. New Guinea. 
ignepicta. S. ignepkta Hmps. is at once recognized for its small size. Body and wings dark olive brown, fiery 
red spots arranged in pairs on the 3 last segments of the abdomen. Forewing striated dark. A fiery red spot 
below the costal margin behind the centre. An ochreous spot in the cell-end and a round hyaline spot below 
it. Hindwing with fiery red scales between vein 5 and the inner margin. $ 14 mm. Bombay. 
suffusa. S. suffusa Leech. Straw-coloured, with a pink hue. Forewing with 3 pink postmedian transverse 
lines. The first angled below the costal margin, basally to it dark striae. Hindwing with 6 or 7 transverse 
lines, only two of which are distinct. Inner margin pink. $ 32 mm. Changyang. 
citrodes. S. citrodes Trnr. Body pale brown, pale yellow at the end. Wings pale yellow with brown striae. 
Costal margin of forewing brown with oblong brown spots behind the middle. A fine brown line from the se¬ 
cond spot at % of costal margin to 3 / 5 of inner margin. Hindwing similar. As veins 7 -\- 8 of forewing are 
stalked, it may not belong to this genus. <$ 24 mm. Queensland.
