H. ferrofusa Hmps. Body rusty red. Forewing ochreous, the base and striation rusty red. The distal ferrofusa. 
line on the forewing as a spot, then as a narrow line to the inner margin. Distal area with very differently 
developed reticulate lines. Hindwing ochreous with rusty red reticulate lines. <$ 48 mm. Bombay. 
H. ocellipermis Warr. Both wings excavated below the apex and very convex in the centre. Forewing ocellipen- 
semidiaphanous. The interior two thirds red-brown, with an erect oval brownish ochreous spot above the 
base from vein 2 to the subcostal vein. The border of the interior area extends from 4 / 5 of inner margin to % 
of costal margin with 3 indentations and dents which extend at veins 2 and 5 to the distal margin and at 
the costal margin to the apex. The marginal area is divided by other lines into 5 irregular areas. Hindwing 
brownish ochreous, divided by reddish lines into round spots. $ 36 mm. Burma. 
H. lepraota Hmps. (91 g). Ochreous. Interior and median bands red-brown, the latter very broad lepraota. 
at the costal margin and connected there with the interior one. The marginal area is divided by other lines 
into 5 areas. Hindwing with dense dark reticulate lines and traces of an interior band. $ 22 mm. Ceylon. 
H. sciodes Trnr. Body and forewing whitish-ochreous with darker striae. Basal third pale brown sciodes. 
except at the costal margin. Somewhat darker at 4 5 of the inner margin and near the margin above the 
middle. Distal margin slightly excurved. Hindwing rounded, coloured like .forewing. Brown areas at the 
inner margin near the base and behind the middle. 16 mm. Queensland. 
H. biplagiata Warr. Dark reddish-yellow with grey spots. Costal margin snow-white and dotted black biplagiata. 
in the basal half and with a black patch behind the middle. Some dark spots above and below the sub¬ 
median fold. A submarginal row of black spots, that above vein 5 large, square, and behind it an oblique 
row to the distal margin. Apical area darker. Fringe red-brown and black. Hindwing white at the base, reddish- 
yellow at the inner margin. The distal two thirds reddish-yellow with dark striae. A square deep brown spot 
between vein 2 and the anal angle. Inner margin whitish like the fringe below vein 2. 15—18 mm. New Guinea. 
Section II. Hindwing concave near the anal angle. 
H. flavus van Eecke (91 h) is somewhat similar to Ad. trimeranalis. Yellow with numerous dark lines, flavus. 
A light streak at the cross-vein of the forewing, composed beneath of 2 greyish-white spots edged with brown. 
Hindwing quite similar, with a light inner margin. $ 22 mm. Sumatra, Borneo. 
H, subrosealis Leech. This pale red-brown species has been dealt with in Vol. II, p. 373 and pi. 50 f subrosealis. 
and is distributed from China to Ceylon and Sumatra. It has metallic spots in and behind the cell on the 
forewing beneath. — The form rubicunda Warr. (91 h), from the Khasia Mts., is bright brick-red, especially rubicunda. 
on the hindwing. Only the costal margin of the forewing is pale brownish ochreous. Larger than the typical 
form. 
H. marginepunctalis Leech (= pallescens Hmps., quadrovata Warr.) (91 h). Pale reddish-brown, pink margine- 
in the median area, somewhat spotted, especially below the centre of the cell, with traces of darker lines from punctahs. 
the inner margin to the cell. Traces of 2 whitish bands from the inner margin on the pinkish-grey hindwing. 
Both wings somewhat excurved in the middle. 22—25 mm. China to West Australia. 
H. ruplraa Swh. Greyish-brown with dense brown reticulate lines. Forewing with a dark central spot, rupina. 
Forewing beneath with white scales; hindwing white (above?) with brown reticulate lines. Distal margin 
somewhat concave before the anal angle. $ 30 mm. Tarimpur. 
Ho albipunctula Warr. Forewing reddish-brown, with many indistinct brown striae Two interior albipunc- 
lines indistinct, a brown oblique distal band with 3 white dots behind it above vein 6. Hindwing pale reddish- tu ^ a - 
brown with brown reticulate lines dividing light round spots. Two black dots behind the cell. $ 22 mm. Burma. 
H. cuprea Pagst. (= costiscripta Warr., pagenstecheri dalla Torre) (91 h). Forewing ochreous with cuprea. 
a red-brown marking in the costal half, costal margin more yellow, a long brown spot at the base. An almost 
square spot near the centre of the costal margin is separated by a pale pear-shaped spot from the following square 
which encloses a light rectangle at the costal margin. A fine marginal line proceeds from a small spot near the apex. 
The posterior half of the wing only with indistinct reticulate lines. Hindwing whitish at the costal margin, 
the rest with interrupted red-brown bands and reticulation. $ 18—20 mm. Amboina, Queensland. 
H. inductalis Wkr. (= subnictitans Warr., peratopis Hmps.). lorewing reddish ochreous with dark inductalis. 
striae. 6 dark spots at the costal margin form the beginnings of bands which are more distinct at the inner 
margin which is darker itself. Two dark spots in the third, angular band, one behind the cell, the other in 
the submeclian fold. One black line each between the bands. The ground-colour behind the cell is paler and 
forms rings. A white, black-centred spot at the apex. Hindwing paler with more rings, 3 in the centre, 1 
before the cellular spot, .the two others behind it; the rings are pale and semidiaphanous. 17—20 mm. Ma¬ 
lacca, Sunda Is., Amboina.
