River, British New Guinea. Hampson has snuk this to Berresa natalis Walk., but the costa in the forewing of 
the (J is not shouldered, and the fovea is quite small. 
I. modesta spec. nov. (25 e). Forewing dull greyish brown; the lines usually very faintly marked in pale modesta. 
grey, only the outer being traceable across wing; the subterminal marked by a grey streak on costa; reniform 
stigma 8-shaped, with a pale annulus and the lower lobe centred with olive yellow; a row of dark and pale 
dots close before termen; hindwing without markings; in the ab. microrbis ah . nov. (25 e) the lower lobe of microrbis. 
reniform, filled up with white, forms a small round spot, much smaller than in octo ab. axis and never oval. 
This species appears to be common in Hainan, and I have seen one example from the island of Sumba. Type in 
Tring Museum. 
I. spissa spec. nov. (25 f). Forewing brown tinged with rufous and often dusted with grey atoms; the inner spissa. 
and outer lines dark, thick, the median area between them generally darker the lines conversely grey edged; 
subterminal line darker, waved, externally grey edged; the interval between it and outer line paler, purer brown; 
lower lobe of the 8-shaped reniform nearly always white, rarely dark with whitish annulus; hindwing fuscous 
grey; — the ab. rufa ab. nov. (25 f) has the ground colour of forewing wholly rufous. Occurs in the Islands rufa. 
Wetter, Teoor, Dutch Timor, Adonara, Damrner, and Little Ivei; the aberration rufa from Pura and Larat. 
I. albiloba spec. nov. Resembles leucopera Hmps. but always smaller; the apical spot round, greyish albiloba. 
white; the lower lobe of reniform generally filled with white, now and then with white annulus only, never with 
any trace of yellow as in leucopera ; hindwing brownish fuscous. From Loeboe Rajah only. 
84. Genus : ISerresa Walk. 
Differs from Ilattia Walk, in the fovea of forewing of $ being placed in the middle of cell with a 
rounded depression at its centre; the subcostal vein curved upwards above it and the median downwards 
below it, above an elongated groove lying above the submedian fold; forewing short and broad, the costa 
shouldered at base and the apex blunt. Type B. natalis Walk. 
B. natalis Walk. (= palpalis Walk., abyssa Snell., turpis Hmps., nec Walk., (25 f). Forewing dull grey natalis. 
brown; inner and outer lines dark, obscurely double at costa, the outer dentate lunulate, forming a series of 
dark points on veins; the subterminal obscure, generally preceded by a dark shade; reniform constricted at 
middle, with an annulus of white points with black dots round them; hindwing grey brown, sometimes with 
traces of a dark outer line. Like I. octo this species appears to be generally distributed throughout the Indo-Au¬ 
stralian region. 
85. Genus: Lot»liia Walk. 
Characterised by the much larger scalefan from subcostal vein covering the fovea of on underside 
of forewing; costa of fore wing straight with slight indentation beyond middle, the apex prominent, the termen 
evenly curved; the palpi stout, the terminal segment thick and porrect. Type L. apicalis Walk. 
L. apicalis Walk. (25 f). Forewing red brown suffused with leaden fuscous; the lower half of post- apicalis. 
median area pale rufous; subbasal line marked by black dots on costa and below cell; inner line blue black, 
oblique from costa to median vein beyond fovea, then retracted basewards, excurved above and below vein 1, 
on which it is inangled; reniform with slight white annulus, narrow, constricted at middle, its inner edge touching 
the somewhat diffuse median line, which below middle is approximated to outer line; this is blue black, obscurely 
double and filled in with greyish, incurved below vein 4; subterminal line marked only by a dark shade preced¬ 
ing it; a rounded yellowish white patch on costa just before apex, containing a small dark dot on costa; a series 
of black and white dots at base of fringe; some rufous scaling on termen above tornus: hindwing fuscous brown; 
the costal area yellowish white to beyond middle; a slight dark outer curved line; a small yellowish white 
mark on termen before tornus. Moreton Bay, Queensland. 
86. Genus: Hypercodia Hmps. 
Tongue fully developed; frons smooth; palpi upcurved, the second segment broadening to extremity, 
the third blunt and erect; antennae of <$ ciliated; thorax without crests; dorsum with an erect crest on third
