median vein, and is marked by rufous scaling on its outer side; a black spot on costa at middle; 
outer line double, starting from a double black costal spot, and excurved above, marked by double 
black vein dashes, indented beyond cell and incurved to lower end of reniform; subterminal line rufous, 
between black shades, dentate outwards at veins 7, 6, 4, 3, and inwardly preceded by small black den¬ 
tate marks; hindwing fuscous, browner along base and inner margin. Recorded from Victoria, N. S. 
Wales. 
5. Genus: Daseuplexfa Hmps. 
Tongue present; frons smooth, but clothed with a strong pointed tuft; a similar tuft above it 
from between the antennae; palpi obliquely upturned, the second segment slender, clothed with long hairs 
in front, the third thrown forward; thorax stout, clothed with scales; the thorax and abdomen crested; 
the latter also with lateral tufts; forewing with prominent apex and crenulate termen. Type D. lagenifera 
Moore. 
Sect. I. Antennae of d bipectinate, the branches long. 
D. lageniformis Hmps. (14 d). Forewing brown somewhat pink-tinged; the median area, except 
along costa, filled up with brownish fuscous, the terminal area with brown only; the lines double, brown, 
filled in with white; the subbasal line preceded by dark fuscous; the inner line straight, oblique out¬ 
wards; the outer denticulate, incurved below middle, emitting dark teeth along veins; subterminal faint, pre¬ 
ceded by dark brown spots between the veins; claviform stigma small, black; orbicular and reniform pinkish 
ochreous with grey centres and paler outlines, conversely oblique, joined together by an oblong horizontal 
ochreous blotch lying below median vein; fringe brown with a bright pale basal line; hindwing brown¬ 
ish fuscous, with cell spot and outer line darker; fringe rufous with pale basal line. Sikkim, N. India. 
Sect. II. Antennae of d with tuberculate fascicles of cilia. 
D. lagenifera Moore ( 1 4d). Superficially much like the preceding, but the central fascia is suffused 
with olive brown and narrower on inner margin; the dark blotch in cell between the stigmata is 
triangular instead of quadrate; the two upper stigmata are connected at base along the median, but 
there is no oblong pale blotch below it; the claviform stigma is absent; the subterminal line starts 
from a black blotch on costa. Like lageniformis, a Sikkim insect. 
6. Genus: Esopolia gen. nov. 
Tongue well developed; frons smooth, but bearing a double tuft; vertex also tufted between the 
antennae; these in the d with short sessile fascicles of cilia; thorax rough haired, the shoulders and 
patagia well-developed; metathorax and basal segments of abdomen crested; palpi porrect, short, rough¬ 
haired, the terminal segment short and pointed; forewing narrow, the costa straight, the termen crenulate 
and strongly oblique; veins 6, 7 of hindwing stalked. Type I. himalayensis Hmps. 
I. himalayensis Hmps. (14 e). Forewing pale flesh-coloured ochreous with darker dusting, 'suffused 
in places with pale and dark brown; inner line double, brown, filled in with pale, outcurved and 
rounded between the veins, preceded by a dark brown shade, forming a large blotch on inner mar¬ 
gin and a small triangle on costa, interrupted between; outer line double and strongly sinuous, out- 
curved above and incurved below middle, conspicuously dentate-lunulate, followed by a broad paler 
brown band, which thins out above middle, its outer edge forming the inner border of submarginal 
line and marked between the veins by black wedge-shaped marks; the submarginal line pale ochreous, 
wavy dentate, followed by a dark brown terminal area, except between veins 2 and 4, where the line is toothed 
to termen, with black streaks between the teeth; median area filled up with black brown, except at 
costa, in the $, with paler brown in the d; claviform stigma long, black-edged; orbicular and reni¬ 
form large with dark centres and pale black-edged annuli; the former oval, oblique, the latter in¬ 
wardly edged with a straight black line, outwardly pale ochreous and diffuse; the space between them 
black brown; a distinct fine sinuous median shade traversing the tip of claviform stigma; fringe black 
brown with a pale line at base; hindwing pale brownish grey; darker terminally, with dark cellspot; outer 
and subterminal lines marked only on inner margin. From Sikkim only. 
7. Genus: CVino Hbn. 
Tongue well-developed; frons smooth, but, like the vertex, rough haired; palpi upturned, stout, the 
second segment hairy, the third short; antennae of d usually serrate and shortly fasciculate; pectus and
