edge of the cell and to the apex. Two black dots at the cross-vein. Exterior line notched, white, indistinct. 
The white submarginal line is edged with brown on both sides. Hindwing pale brown. 18 mm. Described ac¬

6. Genus: Hilopliotlirlpoltles Strd. 
Similar to the preceding genus. Forewing without vein 7, and vein 5 separated from 4. The hindwing,

brown, double, straightly outward as far as vein 1, then inward. Median line absent. A dark spot at the centre 
of the inner margin. Exterior line outward as far as vein 6, then inward, white, a white spot behind it at the 
apex. Submarginal line white, with black spots. Hindwing greyish brown. 20 mm. Assam, Ceylon. 
S. nolalella Wkr. Forewing brownish white, darker at the costal margin behind the middle. Interior nolalella. 
line double, black, filled with white, inward below the costal margin, then undulate, vertical. A white streak 
at the cross-vein, a black dot before it. Exterior line likewise double, filled with white, slightly extra-angular 
at vein 6, introangular in the submedian fold. Submarginal line white, with black spots inside. Hindwing 
brownish. 18—20 mm. India, Ceylon, Java.

Indian species. The others are African, besides one in Colombia. 
P. verna Hmps. (36 a). Forewing olive green, more brownish at the base. A fine white interior line verna. 
excurved in the cell, intro-angular in the submedian fold. Exterior line black, oblique as far as vein 6, then
