Ps. discosticta Iitnps. Violettish-brown, at the base ochreous-brown, with a grey-edged black line as discosiu-ta. 
far as below the cell, behind it a red-brown line as far as vein 1, and three interior undulate indistinct lines. At 
the cross-vein a conspicuous black spot. Exterior line of greyish-black lunae, strongly incurved, inside as far 
as vein 5 ochreous brown, behind it some more faded lunular lines. Hindwing reddish-brown. <§ 46 mm. 
Khasia Hills. 
III. Antennae of £ somewhat dentate and ciliated. 
Ps. basalina sp. n. (82 h). Very similar to basalis’, but separated by the antennae. Interior line more basalina. 
flawed in the submedian fold, then more obliquely outward to the inner margin. Median and marginal areas 
more red-brown. The greyish-white apical spot extends farther inward. $ 52 mm. Sumatra, Mt. Korintji, 
2400 m. Type in the British Museum. 
IV. In the forewing vein 6 from the upper cell-angle. Antennae of $ pecti¬ 
nate d. 
Ps. ocularis Smpr. (82 h). The type is very badly preserved, nevertheless it suits the genus Slauropus, ocularis. 
as which it was described, much less than Pseudofentonia, although the forewing is strongly bent at the base 
of the costal margin. Base of forewing ochreous brown, from there to the double interior line dark red-brown. 
At the lower angle of the cross-vein and inwards above it a black dot. Behind it a vertical notched line as far 
as vein 3, then incurved. Before this line somewhat greyish yellow, behind it more intensely so. Then follows 
a strong double black line, straight as far as vein 3, then removed inwards, more indistinct. Behind its anterior 
portion in a violettish-blackish shadow another line. Distal area red-brown with black submarginal spots. 
Hindwing red-brown. 50 mm. Philippines. 
V. In the forewing vein 6 from the upper cell-angle. Antennae of $ pecti¬ 
nated and ciliated, in the $ plain. 
Ps. maculatus Mr. (83 a). Forewing grey, in the median area more or less hued with red-brown, with maculatus. 
numerous dark grey lunular lines. Before the margin more intensely black spots. Hindwing reddish-grey. 
40—48 mm. Sikkim, Nagas. — The species has but 1 pair of spurs on the hind tibiae as Stauropus, yet the scheme 
of markings suits better this genus. The type of ocularis is without its legs, so that its alliance with maculatus 
can only be presumed. 
44. Genus: I^pistauropiis gen.nov. 
Antennae of pectinated as far as % of their length, the dents gradually shortening towards the apex. 
In the fore wing vein 5 is very far in front, 6 and 10 + 74-8 + 9 from the apex of the accessory cell which is 
small in apiculatus. In plagiviridis vein 6 rises on a long stalk with the others. Type: apiculatus Rothsch. 
E. apiculatus Rothsch. (83 a). Dark red-brown. An interior dark line and an exterior one are feebly apiculatus. 
recognizable. From the apex to vein 3 a pinkish-white luna, and a smaller spot between veins 3 and 2 . Hindwing 
pinkish-brown. 45—60 mm. Assam, Penang, Borneo. — Disparia seriatopuncta Mats., from Formosa, seems 
to be the same species. 
E. vinaceus Mr. (83 a). Very similar. Exterior line composed of double spots. The luniform spot is vinaceus. 
notched towards the inner margin. Hindwing brown. <$ 55 mm. India. 
E. plagiviridis Mr. (83 a). Dark brown, with green irregular spots at the base and in the centre. Exterior plagiviridis. 
line and submarginal line green. Hindwing red-brown, at the base lighter. $ 48—54 mm. Sikkim, Assam, Ceylon. 
45. Genus: IFentonhi Bilr. 
Palpi longer than in Pseudof entonia. Antennae of <$ strongly pectinated as far as % of their length, in 
the $ plain. Eorewing elongated, vein 5 far in front, 6 from the centre of the accessory cell, 7 and 8 + 9 from 
its apex, 10 from its anterior edge. Type: ocypete Brem. — Cf. Vol. II, p. 291, and Vol. XIV, p. 420. 
I. In the hindwing veins 6 + 7 on a short stalk. 
F. ocypete Brem. (= laevis Btlr.) (Vol. II, pi. 45 b). This species distributed from Japan to India has ocijpetc. 
been dealt with in Vol. II, p. 291. A £ from Singapore is strongly darkened. The exterior line on the forewing 
seems to be situate somewhat farther outside between veins 3 and 6 , then moi'e obliquely to the costal margin. 
The original description of the form crenulata Mats, was not to be obtained. 
F. canifusa limps. Forewing red-brown, in the basal area dusted with grey. A large irregular grey spot canifusa. 
from the apex to vein 3. A double undulate basal, interior, and exterior line are present. Hindwing greyish- 
brown. $ 45 mm. Khasia Hills. The species has been ranged near ocypete by the author, but it seems to suit 
better the genus Pseudof entonia.
