It may well be that all these three species are different forms of one and the same insect. 
C. exarans Lucas (= orthomita Trnr.). Forewing pale ochreous fuscous, the veins still paler; 
a black streak from base below cell, and another, narrower, parallel to it, starting from y 3 of wing, 
broken up at extremity into diffuse dark lines between veins; terminal dots black; fringe chequered with 
grey; hindwing ochreous fuscous, shaded with darker fuscous, especially along termen. Melbourne, Australia. 
C. obumbrata Lucas. Forewing dusky ochreous, much dusted with smoky grey and with scat¬ 
tered smoky grey dots; inner and outer lines expressed by dark vein-dots; terminal line pale, preceded 
by a row of minute dark dots, and followed by a band barred with short dark lines; fringe ochreous; 
hindwing dusky ochreous. Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. 
34. Genus: Eurypsyclie Btlr. 
Differs from Cirphis in the forewing having the costa slightly curved, the apex rounded; the 
antennae of with sessile fascicles of cilia and a prominent bristle from each segment; thorax and ab¬ 
domen of more slender build. Type E. lewinii Btlr. 
E. lewinii Btlr. (= similis Btlr., xylogramma Meyr.) (13 e). $ Forewing pinkish white, with slight- 
blackish dusting along costa and inner margin; median vein and vein 4 white; the other veins terminally 
whitish; a yellowish brown streak below median vein and another above it from before middle to just 
beyond end of cell; outer line marked by black points on veins below middle only; a slight flush of yellow¬ 
ish brown on costa and inner margin terminally; fringe brownish; hindwing white tinged throughout 
with pale brown; in the $ the hindwing is whiter, only the termen being brown-tinged; abdomen also 
white. An Australian insect, occurring at Gayndah and Brisbane, Queensland, and in N. S. Wales. 
35. Genus: Meleiiea-nla Smith. 
Tongue developed; palpi obliquely porrect, the second segment rough haired in front; antennae 
of $ simply ciliated; frons prominently rounded, with corneous plate below; thorax and abdomen without- 
crest-s; tibiae fringed with long hair; forewing elongate with produced apex and oblique termen; veins 
3, 4, and 6, 7 shortly stalked. Type N. niveicosta Smith from N. America. 
The species are of somewhat stouter build than those of Meliana Curt., the costa of forewing 
straighter. 
N. vana Swinh. (13 f). Forewing pale ochreous brown; the veins whitish; a black streak below 
cell, strongly marked at middle, attenuated at each end, continued as a whitish streak to termen; an 
elongate black streak in cell towards end; a black patch below and a second beyond the end of 
cell; an oblique pale streak from apex to vein 2, with dentate black markings on its outer edge; 
the area beyond it fuscous; black terminal points; fringe purplish red; hindwing ochreous white, tinged 
terminally wilk fuscous in the $; thorax dorsally blackish with vinous red dorsal ridge. Recorded only 
from Poona, Bombay, S. India. 
N. vittata Hmps. (13 f). Forewing whitish, tinged with ochreous olive; a black streak below base 
of cell; another obliquely placed before middle of inner margin; the cell and area below and beyond it 
olive brown; a subdentate white streak at end of median vein, accompanied by slight black streaks; 
olive brown streaks in the intervals and on each side of the whitish veins; an oblique pale streak from 
apex to vein 2, followed, below vein 5, by black streaks; the area beyond it olive brownish; fringe 
brown and white; hindwing ochreous white, tinged with fuscous along termen. Occurs in S. India, 
whence it is recorded from Belgaum and the Nilgiri Hills, Madras, and from Pirmaad, Travancore. 
N. scottii Btlr. (13 f). Forewing ochreous white suffused with brown pink; the veins white de¬ 
fined by fine brown pink streaks, the median and vein 4 prominently white; some brown pink streaks 
in the terminal interspaces; a slight black streak in base of submedian fold, and a brown shade below 
median vein; a fuscous smudge from lower angle of cell to termen above vein 5; a black dot above median 
vein at rise of vein 2, and another in lower angle of cell; hindwing white, brown-tinged along termen 
from apex to vein 2. Rockhampton, Queensland. 
N. curvilinea Hmps. (13 f). Forewing violaceous white, dusted with black; the white veins de¬ 
fined by fine brown streaks; black streaks in the terminal intervals and in cell; a black streak below 
base of cell and an oblique one before middle of inner margin; a black dot in lower angle of cell; 
outer line marked by a series of dark points; a brownish triangular shade on termen below apex, limited 
above by a pale oblique space; hindwing brownish white. Recorded from the Nilgiri and Palni Hills,
