620 SENT ANA; ECNOMODES; PYDNA. By M. Gaede. 
somewhat lighter, interior angle greyish-white. Exterior hne notched, from below % costal margin obliquely 
outward to vein 2, then punctiform to % inner margin. Interior line of dots, obliquely inward, beginning 
below the cell. Hindwing pale brown. In the $ the radial band is less intensely whitish-grey like the inner 
margin below the cell and at the distal margin. Only the exterior line marked by double dots. The black 
marginal dots are more distinct than in the 3- Apex in both wings more pointed. 32—42 mm. North Kanara. 
Type in the British Museum. 
34. Genus: gen.nov. 
Palpi short-haired, projecting beyond the Irons. Antennae of 3 (as far as they are preserved) strongly 
pectinated, in the £ long, finely ciliated. Forewing narrow, flattened at the apex. Neuration of forewing as in 
Stenadonta. Hindwing at the apex somewhat pointed, especially in the + Veins 3 and 4 from the same place, 
6 + 7 on a shorter stalk than in Stenadonta. Altogether it slightly recalls the European species Nonagria ( Senta) 
maritima (Vol. Ill, pi. 48 e). 
L. violascens sp. n. (82 a). Thorax and forewing dark violettish-brown, in the anterior half greyish- 
white, and the costal margin behind the centre again narrow brown. A strongly notched’dark interior line is 
traceable. Ring-macula and reniform macula white, the latter inside with a brown streak. Median vein fine 
white, also at vein 1 somewhat white, and fine white marginal dots. Abdomen and hindwing lighter brown. 
30—32 mm. North Kanara. Type in theBritish Museum. 
35. Genus: X2ciiomod.es Tmr. 
Palpi of 3 erected to the frons, of $ shorter. Thorax in front with a hair-tuft. Anterior tibiae of the 3 
with a long hair-pencil. Forewing oblong-triangular. Veins 3 and 4 separated, 6 from the base of tihe accessory 
cell or before it, 7 and 8 + 9 from its apex, 10 from its anterior edge. In the hind wing veins 3 and 4 likewise 
distantly separated. 
E. sagittaria Luc. (82 a). Thorax and forewing ochreous, dusted with brown. Marking dark brown. 
A subcostal streak from the base to % of the length of the wing and finer onward, connected by a spot atj /3 
and behind % with the costal margin. A short streak in the base of the submedian fold. A streak at the end 
of the median vein and, after an interruption, bent up to the apex, with a side-branch to % inner margin 
(probably traces of an exterior line). Abdomen and hindwing brownish. 34—40 mm. Brisbane. 
36. Genus: Pytina Wkr. 
Palpi rising to the frons, densely haired. Antennae of 3 partly strongly pectinated, partly only tufted. 
Forewing broad, at the apex mostly pointed. Accessory cell of variable length, veins 7 and 10 + 8 + 9 from 
its apex, or also 10 and 8 + 9 from the apex. Type: testacea Wkr. C'f. Vol. II, p. 316 and Vol. XIV, p. 436. 
I. Antennae of 3 strongly pectinated, in the $ less so. 
P. testacea Wkr. (82 a). Pale ochreous brown. Eorewing spotted dark brown, with a distinct black dot 
at the cross-vein. Sometimes an exterior line of double spots is visible, incurved at the inner margin. From 
the apex a shadow along the median vein, and some dark submarginal spots. Abdomen and hindwing of 3 
red-brown, of $ varying between orange and whitish. — kamadena Mr. may be separated owing to the more 
intensely dark brown forewing . 50—80 mm. North India, Sunda Is. 
P. hunyada Swh. (82 a). In the colouring similar to testacea. Interior line light, notched. Central dot 
distinctly black, in a lighter halo. The light undulated exterior line is strongly incurved below the cell, then 
vertical to the inner margin. Submarginal dots light-edged. In the $ the exterior line is also indistinct. The 
whole posterior half as far as the centre of the cell and to the apex light, but the costal margin brownish. Hind¬ 
wing whitish, at the inner margin somewhat red-brown. 50—80 mm. Java, Borneo. 
P. tenebralis Hmps. (82 b). Ground-colour also similar to testacea. Forewing with a curved interior and 
exterior line, the latter incurved below vein 3, between them reddish-brown with a black spot at the cross¬ 
vein and a dark shadow from the apex. Abdomen and hindwing dark brown. 3 40 mm. Sikkim. 
P. decurrens Mr. (82 b). Pale yellow r . Forewing with a faded red-brown interior and exterior line, both 
strongly angled in the middle. A red-brown line from the apex obliquely inward. $ 50 mm. Khasia Hills. 
Po longivitta Wkr. (= xanthophila Wkr.) (82 b). Forewing orange with a rusty red radial band, below 
it oblique rows of dots. Interior angle rather sharply angled. 55—60 mm. Sikkim, Rangoon. 
P. bela Swh. Thorax and forewing dark reddish-ochreous, with a brown radial band to the apex and a 
similar band below" it. Sometimes a few brownish spots from the centre of the inner margin to the apex. Abdomen
