each side of vein 4. 1 <$ from the Mimika River in New Guinea, found in August 1910 by A. F. R. Wollaston. 
Type in the Collection of the British Museum. 
T. strigosa Warr. (48 e, f). Forewing white, traversed by 3 brownish ochreous, badly marked lines, strigosa. 
the. proximal and distal ones slightly obliquely outwards, the subterminal line parallel to the margin. Fringes 
white. Hindwing with the two distal lines almost meeting at the anal angle. Face and palpi brown. The type 
is a (J from New Guinea, between Holnicote Bay and the Owen Stanley Range. 
T. seriata sp. nov. (48 f) superficially resembles strigosa Warr. from New Guinea, also in the size seriata. 
and the arrangement of the lines. Instead of the brown proximal line a row of 5 black dots, 2 in each fold 
and 1 at the hind-margin. The distal line, instead of the double row of brown spots, is composed of a 
row of black spots between the veins, followed by a yellowish-red line of brown contiguous triangles; instead 
of the double brown subterminal line a row of black small square spots, which is slightly indented on the two 
folds. At the distal margin a row of fine black spots. Fringes bronze-like grey. Hindwing the same, without 
the proximal line. Under surface pure white. Face, front legs and antennae bronze brownish-grey; the rest- 
all white. 3 1 $ from Goodenough Is. (A. S. Meek). 
T. aurilinea sp. nov. (48 f as curvilinea). Forewing white; the proximal line only marked by a dark aurilinea. 
spot at the hind-margin; the distal line from veins 7 to 2 excurved, formed of small black internerval spots, 
from vein 2 to the hind-margin freely incurved; followed everywhere by a small black diffuse cloud, only on 
vein 2 another line; the subterminal line is a curved row of small black spots, the three towards the costa being 
the most distinct. On the hindwing the distal line and the subterminal line are close together, the former forming 
a feeble double line of small crescents. Fringes of both wings white; under surface white, the costal margin 
at the base brownish. Upper half of face, palpi, and front legs brownish-grey; all the rest white. 1 from the 
Ninay Valley (Central Arfak Mts. in Dutch New Guinea), at an altitude of 3500 ft., from November 1908 till 
January 1909. 
14. Genus: Ihisidava Wkr. 
Proboscis present; palpi porrect, feeble, hardly projecting beyond the face, rj antennae with single 
pectinations; hind tibiae with 1 pair of spurs. Forewing with cuived costal margin, apex subacute; distal 
margin slightly flawed in the centre. .Hindwing obtusely concave in the centre of the distal margin. No 
frenulum. On the forewing vein 6 rises from the cell-angle, 7, 8, 9 are forked, also 10 and 11; 8 and 9 
anastomose with 10 forming an areola. In the hindwing 6 and 7 rise separately near the base. 7 remains united 
with 8 as far as beyond the middle. Type: Z. tortricaria Wkr. 
Z. tortricaria Wkr. (=sinuosa Mr.) (48 d). Forewing white; costal margin with spots of dark brown; tortricaria. 
traces of 3 undulating proximal and 2 distal lines being the most distinct below the centre. 2 subterminal lines. 
Hindwing with 1 proximal, 2 median, and 2 subterminal lines. Palpi blackish; abdomen dark brown excepting 
the basal segment. Type from Borneo, but it also occurs in the Khasia Hills in Assam as well as in Tenasserim 
in Burma. 
15. Genus: IPsemteiiiodessi Warr. 
Separated from the preceding genus by the bipectinate antennae. Type: Ps. plenicornis Warr. 
Ps. plenicornis Warr. (48 d). Forewing silky white; lines grey, the proximal and distal lines undulating plenicornis. 
and denticulate; between both a grey line on the discocellular, traversed by an indistinct grey line; near the 
distal margin a double row of grey lunulae; costal margin slightly darkened grey; at the ends of the veins small 
black marginal dots, those above vein 5 being connected by a dark line. Hindwing similar. Described from 
a $ from Rossel Is. in the Louisiade Archipelago. 
Ps. fuscidisca Warr. (48 d, misprinted into fuscilisca). Separated from plenicornis by a large dark fuscidisca. 
brownish-grey spot at and below the cell-end, 2 subterminal lines, the distal one being formed of small crescents 
which are filled with grey behind the fold at the distal margin. Described from a $ from Mysol. 
16. Genus: I®rot«&ISiyris Warr. 
Proboscis present; palpi short, closely appressed to the face; antennae plain, with lamellae, rather 
long; hind tibiae with 4 spurs, legs smoothly scaled; on the forewing the costa is curved at the base, the apex 
is hardly produced; distal margin on vein 3 obtusely flawed, then excised to the anal angle. On the hindwing 
the projection at vein 3 is -broader and curved, the excision longer. The $ differs in the convex hind-margin
