of black dots on its outer edge, excurved at middle and bent outwards to tornus; hindwing grey-white tinged 
with red brown; an obscure waved whitish subterminal line; in the ah. perrufa ab. nov. (24d) the whole fore- perrufa. 
wing is nearly uniform brickred; the hindwing with the apical third reddish; the ab. distincta ab. nov. (= dislincla. 
ab. 1 Hmps.) (24d) has the median area of forewing darker, and the subterminal black marks distinct; in ab. 
grisea ab. nov. (= ab. 2 Hmps.) (24d, e) the forewing is suffused throughout with grey white with fuscous irro- grisea.

white. Larva stout, whitish, with the head black; feeding on various Coccids, Lecanium oleae, hesperidum,

Cairns, Brisbane, Moreton Bay in Queensland; Sherlock River, W. Australia; Sydney, New South Wales. 
A. griseicosta spec. nov. (24 e). Forewing brown; costal streak pearl grey, starting from inner margin griseicosta. 
near base and thinning out at apex; inner line brown, acutely angled outwards above the whitish diffuse reniform, 
then oblique, thick and diffuse, limiting the grey streak; outer line brown edged with white, bluntly angled 
outwards at vein 6, then vertical to 4, and incurved below, dentate lunulate; subterminal line lunulate dentate, 
v white edged with black, above 6 preceded by an inwardly oblique black mark, between 6 and 4 by a white 
pearshaped blotch, connected by a yellow mark with the angle of outer line, below 4 by black lunules; a bluish- 
white apical blotch, whitest at vein 5 where it runs out into the brown fringe; a row of black spots before 
termen; the terminal line black; hindwing redder with the extreme base pearl grey edged by a brown line; 
the other lines as in forewing but the subterminal marked by three black spots above inner margin; cell spot 
double; underside of forewing reddish with the terminal area whitish, the hind wing white; all the lines and cell- 
spots clearly indicated in black; head, palpi, forelegs, and tegulae brown; patagia, thorax, and two basal seg¬ 
ments of dorsum whitish; rest of dorsum reddish grey; a black spot at base of anal segment. 1 from the 
Kliasia Hills, Assam, June 1895. Type in the Tring Museum. 
A. indefinita spec. nov. (24 e). Resembles griseicosta, but differs in many points; the costa is narrowly indejinita. 
and diffusely grey, but without any defined costal streak; a brown dot at base of cell; the inner line is curved 
well before end of cell; cellspot dark brown edged internally with pale; subterminal line with the upper lunules 
filled in with white, but without the pearshaped blotch or yellow streak before it, below middle preceded by 
brown wedge shaped spots; a white streak from apex to subterminal line, and a less distinct one along vein 5, 
but no whitish apical blotch; hindwing with base rufous brown; the median line preceded by blackish scaling; 
the outer by brown wedge shaped marks; the subterminal dots in both wings black and white; underside of fore¬ 
wing brickred, the terminal area whitish, the hindwing white; the markings very faint; head, tegulae, and dor¬ 
sum reddish brown; patagia, thorax, and two basal segments of dorsum whitish grey. 1 from Padang Rengas, 
Malay peninsula. Type in the Tring Museum. 
A. latistriga spec. nov. (24 e). Forewing pale pinkish fawn colour; all the markings much as in latisiriga. 
S. quadripunctata Warr., but with no dark spot at end of cell; the oblique streak from apex to middle of inner 
margin broadly and diffusely brown, edged outwardly with pink; the costa more distinctly tinged with dull 
rosy; face, tegulae, and base of patagia dark fawn; thorax, base of dorsum, and rest of patagia ochreous; rest 
of dorsum dark grey with pale segmental rings; termen of forewing merely curved, the apex not produced. 
2 one, the type, from the Kliasia Hills, Assam; the other from Gunong Ijau, Malay peninsula. Type in 
Tring Museum. 
A. pallidistriga spec. nov. (24 e). Resembles indefinita and griseicosta, with the broad grey costal pallidi- 
streak of the latter, but less defined; the lines as in that species; a white apical streak from apex to the white sirn J a - 
lunule above vein 7, below which the interval between outer and subterminal lines from 7 to 6 is filled 
by an oblong blotch of dull yellow, produced backwards more narrowly above 6 to the upper half of reniform, 
which is white with a black dot in each half; costal edge brown, broadening beyond outer line; the outer line 
below its angle less sinuous; the whitish terminal spot above vein 5 very slight and not running beyond terminal 
line; hindwing with the lines repeated, the base narrowly grey edged with redbrown; two black spots at end of 
cell partially conjoined; underside of forewing brown red, of hindwing brick red, the termen greyer; all the 
lines and cellspots indicated; head, palpi, forelegs, and tegulae redbrown; patagia, thorax, and two basal seg¬ 
ments of dorsum pale grey; rest of dorsum reddish grey. 3 from Amboina, February 1892 (W. Dohertv).
