Sect. III. Antennae of with pedicellate fascicles of cilia. 
E. spinifera Hbn. (= spinula Hbn., biconica Koll., exigua Roll., spiculiftra Guen., aristifera Guen., ferina spinifem. 
Feld., kodnae Oberth.) (Vol. 3, pi. 5 g). Forewing pale ochreous, suffused with fuscous in the $; stigmata dis¬ 
tinct, black-edged; claviform very elongate, black brown; reniform fuscous, orbicnlar flattened, elongate; the 
cell before and beyond it black brown; subterminal line alone plain, dentate, preceded and followed by dark 
wedge-shaped marks; hindwing white. This widely spread palaearctic and S. African species is found throughout 
India and Burma (cf. Vol. 3, p. 27). 
E. poliotis Hmps. (6 e). Forewing pale grey with a grey brown tinge in the <$; in the $ suffused with poliotis. 
blackish fuscous, especially in median area; subbasal and inner lines black edged with pale; the inner strongly 
angled outwards on inner margin; outer line double, dentate, the teeth marked by dashes on the veins, indented 
on both folds; subterminal lure pale, denticulate, preceded by black dentate marks lying in a dark suffusion; 
some black terminal points; claviform stigma small, black-edged; orbicular and reniform with fuscous centres 
ringed with pale and edged with black; the former small and round, the reniform large and dark; a diffuse ver¬ 
tical median shade, darkened above reniform; hindwing of d and the fringe pure white; the judging from 
the material available, varies greatly; in the form corresponding to the G the ground colour is whitish grey, 
with the median fascia darker grey, the hindwing white, with the terminal area pale grey; in tlieab. fuscata ab.nov. fuscata. 
(6 e) the ground colour is suffused with dark grey or fuscous brown, the median area, and often the basal area 
as well, being blackish fuscous; the hindwings greyish fuscous, paler towards base; this would seem to be the 
more common form of the Described from Queensland, 1ST. Australia, the $$ generally larger than the dcU 
a single $ from Roebourne, W. Australia is no larger than the GG and may be separated as subsp. periusa subsp. perfusa. 
nov. (6e); in this both the inner margin, the terminal area, and the median broad shade are dark brownish 
fuscous, only the cell and space beyond being of the brownish grey ground colour; the hindwing whitish, with 
the termen diffusely fuscous. 
E. panoplias Meyr. (6 f). Forewing bluish white darkened and in parts suffused with olive fuscous; panoplias. 
the costa dark; inner and outer lines blackish; inner angled outwards on subcostal vein and submedian fold, 
inwards on median nervure and vein 1, and again outwards above inner margin towards middle of wing; 
outer line lunulate-dentate; claviform thick, long, brown black, continued to base as a black line; orbicular 
and reniform brown, black-edged; the orbicular flattened, the reniform large; a brown shade between them; 
short black spots above bases of veins 2 and 3; black streaks in the intervals towards termen, and black clouds 
on costa and on both folds; subterminal line hardly visible; fringe dark; hindwing dark brownish. Described 
from a single $ from Kona, Hawaii. 
E. epicremna Meyr. (6 f). Forewing purplish fuscous suffused with black; lines black; inner line oblicpie, epicremna 
dentate inwards on veins and outwards between them; outer line lunulate-dentate, bent on vein 4; subterminal 
paler, dentate, preceded by strongly marked black wedge-shaped marks, the terminal area dark; stigmata 
black-edged, small and obscure; hindwing dark fuscous, blacker terminally. Hawaii, Haleakala. In both sexes 
of this species the costa of forewing is conspicuously shouldered near base. 
E. mesotoxa Meyr. (6f). Forewing paler than epicremna, greyish fuscous, lines much the same; the mesotoxa. 
stigmata plainer, the orbicular pale with a broad pale annulus; hindwing cupreous brown. Described from 
a single $ from Kona, Hawaii. 
E. baliopa Meyr. (6 f).- Forewing purplish grey, irrorated and partly suffused with black; subbasal baliopa. 
and inner lines waved, black, the latter strongly angled outwards above inner margin; outer line dentate, bent 
at vein 4; subterminal line whitish, preceded at costa by a dark patch, angled outwards at vein 7, then repre¬ 
sented by white points on black dentate marks; claviform marked at tip with black; orbicular and reniform 
with fuscous centres and pale annuli edged with black; the former round; the latter produced below at veins 
3, 4 and connected with a white and black U-shaped mark below vein 3; the cell remaining black; hindwing 
fuscous brown; fringe pale. Haleakala, Hawaii. 
E. cremata Btlr. (= laysanensis Roths.) (6e). Forewing brownish grey, with a faint reddish flush; cremata. 
subbasal and inner lines black, double and dentate, filled in with pale; the inner angled outwards below costa 
and above inner margin, inwards on the veins, excurved below cell; outer line dentate, the teeth forming points 
on veins, strongly bent outwards below costa and inwards on vein 4; subterminal line pale, preceded by small 
black dentate marks; claviform and orbicular almost obsolete; reniform a small black ring, with a streak 
above it in the <d; hindwing fuscous brown; fringe with the tips pale. Hawaii. Larva broad and flattened, 
swollen somewhat behind the head; pale drab; dorsal area, except on second and last segments, with blackish 
patches decreasing in size towards extremity; head testaceous; thoracic shield testaceous edged with black; 
spiracles black; feeds on a marine plant growing on the sandhills in which it hides during the day. 
E. spoderopa Meyr. (6f). Forewing rufous, almost wholly suffused with greyish white, except in some spodcropa. 
cases along costa; a slight dark streak from base below cell; subbasal and inner lin e wavy, black inwardly defin-
