brown in the basal half, blackish at the margin ,with traces of 2 dark transverse lines. 28 mm. 1 $ from Queens¬ 
land in the Brit. Museum, 1 $ in the Berlin Museum. — In oxylopha Trnr. (32 c) the scheme of marking is almost 
exactly the same as in plumbea. Thorax and fore wing dull red-brown, with traces of undulate transverse lines. 
Interior and exterior lines as well as the dots at the cross-vein as in plumbea. At the inner margin the interior 
branch of the interior line and the exterior branch of the exterior line are indistinct. Basal area and inner margin 
darker, marginal area grey. Hindwing similar to plumbea. 28 mm. 1 couple described from Queensland, besides 
1 in the Berlin Museum. Turner later declared his species to be identical with plumbea, but oxylopha may 
remain at least as the name of a form. 
B. nigriplaga Warr. There are no statements about the antennae, so that the species cannot be assigned 
to any group. Thorax and forewing brownish grey. The whole basal area, a triangle at the middle of the costal 
margin and a sandglass-shaped preapical spot black. Vein 3 brown. Interior line excurved in the middle, white 
in the anterior part, then black. A black luna at the cross-vein is inserted in the middle, finely edged with white, 
connected with the spot at the costal margin. Median exterior lines parallel, straightly outward as far as vein 6, 
then inward, filled with black above vein 3, undulate below it. The margin below vein 3 and the space between 
the reniform macula and the median line red-brown. Submarginal line white as far as vein 6 and below vein 3. 
A pale yellow streak in the centre of the cell. Hindwing white, brownish at the margin. 30 mm. 1 $ from the 
district of the Snow Mountains in New Guinea. 
3. Genus: filltcliil IIbn. (Eurhipia Bsd., Ehlogophora Tr.). 
Palpi long, the second joint hairy, the third long, thin. Frons with a small hair-tuft. Antennae of 
typically finely serrated and tufted. Thorax with a flat tuft in front, a double tuft behind, a distinct tuft on 
the first segment of the abdomen, a few small ones at the end. Forewing undulate at the distal margin, cut 
out at the anal angle. Neuration normal. Type: adulatrix Hbn. from Europe. The genus is very well represented 
in all the faunae; about 60 species have been described. 
1. Antennae o f $ with long pectinations. 
1 a ( Phalga). Forewing undulate at the distal margin, slightly angular at 
veins 7 and 3. 
Ell. sinuosa Mr. (— viridinota Swh.) (32 c). Body and forewing reddish brown. Interior line black, 
fine, strongly dentate, obliquely inward to the inner margin. Reniform macula pale green, strangulated in the 
middle, with a white streak to the costal margin. Median line black, more distinct, excurved from the upper 
cell-angle, dentate as far as vein 4, then obliquely inward. Exterior line black, double, strongly dentate, parallel 
to the median line. The dark submarginal line very indistinct. Hindwing darker red-brown, pale at the base. 
30 mm. Sikkim, India, Tonkin, Borneo. 
1 b (Aplotelia). Forewing strongly undulated at the distal margin, without 
angles. Strongly built species. 
Eu. tripartita Snip. ( = diplographa Hmps., pratti B.-Balc.) (32 c). Body and forewing reddish grey. 
Interior line double, dark, straight; darker before it at the base of the wing. Exterior line slightly excurved 
around the cell, inward to the inner margin, its inner branch black, the outer branch brown. Median area red¬ 
dish grey with faint traces of a reniform macula and median line. Distal margin somewhat lighter, enclosing 
a dentate black submarginal line. Hindwing lighter at the base, otherwise blackish grey. 28—30 mm. Sikkim, 
Philippines, New Guinea. — The larva is brown with a black head, a light marking on the dorsum, the 6 th 
to 8tli segments almost white. Each segment with 2 thorny protuberances, a few more on the 3rd and 11th. 
Abdominal legs light bluish. On Spondias. 
Eu. nubilosa Warr. Body dark grey. Forewing grey, somewhat coppery. A black spot at the inner 
margin at the base, extending narrow to the costal margin, bordered by the black interior line. Exterior line 
pale, edged with dark, obtusely angled outward at vein 7, also at veins 4 and 3, inward at the latter and vertical 
to the inner margin. Median area pale copper-brown. Ring-macula and reniform macula small, edged with 
black. Behind the lower part of the extei’ior line there is another similar one, and dark spots are in the middle. 
Submarginal line pale, brownish before it, a dark apical spot behind it. A triangle at the apex as far as vein 4, 
silvery grey. Hindwing light at the base, the margin broadly blackish. 32—40 mm. 1 couple from Penang. 
1 c (Eleale). Forewing only slightly undulated at the distal margin. 
Eu. fulvipicta HmjJS. (32 c). Body and forewing red-brown, the basal half at the inner margin more 
yellow, redder before the exterior line. Interior line black, angled at the lower cell-margin, with a white dot 
at the costal margin. A dark median line in the lower half of the wing. Exterior line angled at vein 6, then 
parallel to the others inward, another yellow line behind it. The white submarginal line indistinct. A black 
radial stripe through the cell. Hindwing white in the basal half, red-brown and fiery red at the margin, q 28 mm. 
Assam. 
Eu. plusioides Wkr. (32 c). Body and forewing yellow, the costal margin lilac red as far as the middle, 
a stripe between veins 3 and 5 as far as the margin lilac red, a faded black streak in the basal half of the cell.
