I. diluta Warr. (49 e). Forewing yellowish straw-coloured, in some places coloured with light brown; dilula. 
proximal line obliquely proximad, above and behind the median excurved, before it a pale band of the ground¬ 
colour; median line excurved behind the cell, and then dying away; both the area between the lines and the 
basal area are light brown; the distal line proceeds from the costa as an oblique small cloud, it is angular above 
6, and provided with an erect black mark; subterminal line light, undulating, between small pale brown clouds; 
at the cell-end 2 black dots. Hindwing similar. Fringes deep brown. Under surface yellow, the distal lines 
light brown. $ somewhat paler than the A- It occurs in the Khasia Hills. This species has an expanse of 36 
to 38 mm, and is pale ochreous; the d of quadripundata has an expanse of 22 mm, and is reddish-grey. 
I. subobliqua Warr. (49 e). Forewing pale ochreous powdered with a dull red-brown colour; the lines subobliqua. 
as in diluta, but on both wings blacker. On the forewing beneath the distal line is black and thick, terminating 
with the submedian fold straight into the apex; in diluta, where this line is duller and of a brownish shape, 
it is angular on vein 6 and retracted at the costa; the distal line is on the hindwing equally prominent. 
Described from a single d from South Java with an expanse of 30 mm, thus of a size midway between quadri¬ 
pundata and diluta. 
I. trisulcata Warr. (49 e) (as tripundata). Forewing whitish, coated with a light ochreous sand- trisulcaia. 
colour; subterminal line straight as far as below the costa, then dentate, with a little brown on both sides. 
Hindwing only at the hind-margin with traces of the lines. Sikkim. 
I. trilinearia Mr. (49 e, as bilinearia) differs from trisulcata in the basal and median areas being shaded trilinearia. 
with blackish brown; head black. Sikkim. 
I. glaciata sp. nov. (49c). Forewing yellow; costal margin dark, turning reddish yellow and broader glaciata. 
behind the centre; lines brown, indistinct, dentate on alternating sides, formed of small crescents, the distal 
line indented on both folds, below the submedian fold more distinct; at each end of the discocellular 2 small 
white spots encircled with a dull dark colour; median area slightly tinted brownish; the subapical brown spot 
is narrow; the small subterminal lunae as usual. Hindwing with a proximal, distal, and subterminal row of 
spots; the white spot at the lower cell-angle is narrow and oblong. Both wings covered with glossy scales, 
except a yellow band before the subterminal spot, reaching in the fore wing to the distal margin below vein 3 
and through the whole hindwing. Under surface pale yellow, with a feebly darker apical marking. Face above 
reddish. Legs brownish, tegulae whitish, patagia and thorax yellow, abdominal dorsum brownish. 2 $($, 1 5 
from Sikkim. The $ antennae are serrate in this species, not pectinate as in the others. Type in the Tring 
Museum. 
I. mediata sp. nov. (49 d). Forewing brown with a yellowish tint, scantily covered with small glossy mediata. 
scales; lines darker brown, the proximal line edged, almost notched. The distal line is situate at % of the wing 
(not at % as in olivacea ) thick, projecting on vein 6 and between the veins 2 and 5, indented on both folds; 
2 white brown curved spots on the discocellular; an antemarginal row of small black, white-tipped crescents 
growing thicker below vein 3, behind it above 3 a violettish-grey shadow, with yellowish red-brown colour 
before it and behind it at the anal angle, lacking the silvery dusting except behind the lunulae. Hindwing 
with traces of 2 lines and a row of black patches before the distal margin in the interspaces; at the lower end 
of the discocellular an oblong white dot; costal area yellow; fringes yellowish-red and a yellowish-red band 
before the subterminal patches. Under surface dull yellow, the distal and subterminal lines below the costal 
margin with small dark spots. Face and legs reddish; thorax and abdomen brown, like the wings. 1 $ from 
Goodenough Is., collected by A. S. Meek in April 1913. — It has shorter wings and is stouter and also browner 
than olivacea which was likewise brought from Goodenough Is.; type in the Tring Museum. The $ has serrate- 
dentate anfennae as glacialis, not pectinate ones. 
33. Genus: Alfoara Wkr. 
Proboscis feeble; palpi delicate, upturned. $ antennae pectinate, towards the apex serrate, those of 
the $ plain. Forewing with a subconvex costal margin, the apex pointedly produced or obtusely rounded; 
distal margin almost straight. Forewing with an areola; vein 11 from the cell. Type: A. reversaria Wkr. 
A. specularia Wkr. (49 h). Forewing red-brown, with lines of a deeper colour, though very indistinct; specularia. 
proximal line curved, double, distal line blurred, subterminal line irregularly undulated. In the cell a round 
pale spot, and two very dull ones below the base of vein 2, at and behind the cell-end a spot which is transparent 
in places and paler between the bases of veins 2 and 5. Hindwing similar, the curved distal line more distinct, 
the whole hyaline spot larger. Under surface silky yellow, distal line and cellular spot dark. Sikkim. 
A. discispilaria Mr. (= usta Btlr.) (49 h as discipilaria). Forewing red-brown, duller than in the discispila- 
preceding species. The dark lines are more distinct; the proximal, median, and distal lines are undulating, ria, 
the two former nearing each' other below the centre, behind the distal line there is a dark spot between the
