C. orciferaria Wkr. (<$, 36 a as pruinosa ; 9 48 a). Both wings dark violettish-brown with some in¬ 
distinct undulating dark lines in the basal area; the distal band is broad with a bluish-grey tint and indistinct 
undulating grey lines thereon and on its undulated distal margin; forewing with a folded spot on the disco- 
cellular; from below the apex a bluish-grey subterminal band extends, being expanded in the centre into a 
hazy spot; at the distal margin a dark line; hindwing with a bluish-grey spot and a similar marginal line at 
the apex, and an oblique bluish-grey line from vein 2 to the anal angle; the type of orciferaria Wkr. originates 
from North China, though the species was also found in Tenasserim, in the mountains of Tonkin, on Mt. Wuchi 
in Hainan, and in Sumatra. 
II. Subfamily: I>repaninae worn. nov. 
Characterised by the very small, badly developed, porrect palpi and by the feeble proboscis; at the 
angulation of the cliscocellular vein 5 rises close above 4; the larva has only 14 feet. 
2. Genus: Macranzata Btlr. 
Proboscis present; palpi quite small; antennae in both sexes bipectinate; the pectinations of the $ 
are feebler; middle and hind tibiae with pahs of very short terminal spurs; wings large; forewing with a cur¬ 
ved costal margin which is flattened down before the apex which is obtusely produced; distal margin curved; 
hindwing with a rounded, almost notched distal margin; forewing with a strongly angular cliscocellular; vein 
6 rises from the flattened end of the subcostal; 7, 8, 9, 10 stalked, 11 from the cell; both wings with large 
transparent central spots. Type: M. fenestraria Moore. 
M. fenestraria Mr. (Vol. II, pi. 23 f). Forewing yellowish-white, with a large irregular vitreous spot 
occupying the end of the cell and the area behind it and below it, the veins crossing it are yellow; along 
the proximal edge of the vitreous spot a double yellowish-brown line, and another line around its distal edge 
and inwardly bent below the centre; the upper border of this spot is edged with dark rusty-yellow; before 
a dark shadow there is an undulating white subterminal line; on the hindwing the vitreous spot is more irre¬ 
gular and pierced. Bengal and the Kangra Valley in India; also mentioned from Japan. 
3. Genus: Aaizata Wkr. 
Proboscis present; palpi upturned, feeble; antennae with lamellae, slightly thickened and flattened 
down; fore wing with an acute apex; margin at vein 3 broken; hindwing angular at vein 4, then notched as 
far as the anal angle; on the forewing vein 6 rises directly below the upper cell-angle; veins 7, 8, 9, 10 
stalked, from the cell-angle. Type: A. semipavonaria Wkr.-, three of the five species are from China and Japan. 
A. semipavonaria Wkr. (48 b, and Vol. II, pi. 23 g). Head, thorax and abdomen white; forewing white; 
lines dark brownish; two proximal lines, undulating and curved, but indistinct, interrupted on the veins; 
two distal lines, with a large comma-shaped yellowish-brown spot from vein 1 to 5, with a black spot centred 
with silvery blue at the beginning of the small tail; subterminal and terminal lines similar; hindwing white 
with three pairs of similar lines, but without the spot. It occurs in the Penjab and in Sikkim (North India). 
A. simpliciata Warr. (48 b). Forewing white, very scantily scaled; costal spot ochreous; the lines are 
exceedingly feeble, formed of scanty small blackish scales; the first is vertical, distally projecting on the me¬ 
dian after the first third, before it a median line; the second line at % behind the cell bent outward, and 
bent inward to the hind-margin near the 1st line; behind it a dull line containing a dark spot and dot on 
vein 4 and a black dot on the two veins above and below it; subterminal line very indistinct, strongly den¬ 
tate; fringes white; on the hindwing the lines are single, and no black spots behind the second line. Under 
surface iridescent white; costal margin of fore wing towards the base dark; face and front legs brown; an¬ 
tennae ochreous; thorax and abdomen white. Described from a single $ from the Khasia Hills in Assam. In 
this species vein 6 of the fore wing rises above the cell-angle, and the posterior margin of the hindwing is 
not notched. 
4. Genus: Macrocillx Btlr. 
Proboscis present; palpi quite small; antennae bipectinate, the branches in the $ shorter; apex of 
forewing not produced, the distal margin obliquely bent; on the hindwing the. distal margin and both the angles
