TIMORODES. By M. Gaede. 
nervure 4, then inwards, vertically downwards from nervure 2. Beyond this a triangular black spot on sub¬ 
median fold to margin. Submarginal line consists of dark dots. The $ darker. 35 mm. Queensland. 
In the following species, hindwings are no longer orange-yellow. 
amabilis. B. amabilis Lower (31 f). Forewings dark green, blackish between inner and outer lines. Inner line bent in 
a rightangle. Central line black, dentate, oblique, straight, with green inner edge. A dark dot at disco-cellular. 
Outer line dentate, proceeding obliquely outwards from nervure 6—4, above and below this horizontally inwards 
and vertically to inner margin. It is edged with white outwardly. A few black submarginal dots. Hindwings 
orange-red, narrowly dark at margin. 36 mm. Described from a single $ from Queensland. 
accipiens. B. accipiens Wkr. (31 f). According to the hindwings, which are similar to those of lichenosa and on 
account of the pale brownish white colour of forewings, it seems difficult to understand why this species is classi¬ 
fied here. The inner line is vertical on forewings and undulate. Central line oblique, undulate, excurved in 
centre. A black streak at disco-cellular. The outer line indistinct, faintly bent outwards behind the cell, bending 
inwards at submedian fold and then again outwards. Submarginal line delicately black, spotted, dentate and 
affinis. with white outer edge. — affinis Strd. has a whiter central area and an obliqxie black streak from disco-cellular 
umbrata. to nervure 2. — umbrata Strd. also has a paler central area, but posteriorly is widely dark. 34 — 38 mm. India, 
Ceylon, Tonkin. 
v in-data. B. viridata B.-Bak. (31 d). Hindwings similar to amabilis, but the dark margin much wider. Forewings 
jade-green at base, the rest being brown with diffuse blackish and green bands in central area and beyond. The 
inner line black, oblique and double at inner margin. Slightly black at disco-cellular. The outer line pale brown 
outwardly, undulate, somewhat excurved over nervure 4. Submarginal line black, faintly undulate, with white 
spots outwardly. 34 mm. 1 <$ from New Guinea. The original illustration does not seem to agree with the 
description. 
puloa. B. puloa S'wh. (31 f). Hindwings brownish white, darker at margin. Forewings grass-green with whitish 
patches. Numerous black striations on costa from which diffuse pale lines extend. Central line angulated out¬ 
wards below costa, then vertically, above nervure 1 it conjoins with the outer line in a diffuse darker patch. 
The latter is indistinct and double, green, the inner part being black at costa and below nervure 2, faintly curved 
outwards at costa, then undulate and vertically downwards and outwards at inner margin. Submarginal line 
faintly undulate, whitish with green inner edge and a black spot at anal angle. 24—28 mm. Philippines. 
alenu. B. alena Swh. Hindwings grey-white, diffusedlv brownish grey at margin, differing thereby consider¬ 
ably. Fore wings uniformly dark grey, dusted with brown. The inner line boldly undulate with spot on costa, 
incurved in cell, projecting underneath in a long point. Outer line dentate, undulate, bending widely outwards. 
32 mm. Queensland. 
subtermina- B. subterminalis E. Prout. This species differs by its wide forewings and small hindwings. Also in the 
fi’ s - colour of the latter, which is grey-brown without a darker margin. Forewings brownish white and lilac. The 
lines are obscure. Inner and outer lines blackish with large spots on costa, heavily undulate and excurved. 
Between them the wing is blackish with a diffuse black spot posteriorly to the outer line on costa. Orbicular 
stigma black, reniform stigma small, oval and with dark edge. Submarginal line distinct, white, the dentations 
bolder than in solomonis, otherwise rather similar. 38 mm. 1 $ from Borneo. 
samphiro- B. samphirophora Trnr. Hindwings pale grey, grey white patches near the apex. Forewings with rounded 
phora. costa, whitish, densely dusted with dark brown and a little ochre-brown. The inner line blackish, extending 
outwards from Qj of costa, diffusing below the centre into a large black inner marginal spot. The outer line 
similar, from 3 / 5 of costa outwards, curving behind the cell, angulated inwards on submedian fold and thence 
to 4 / 5 of inner margin. Submarginal line indicated by 2 black, glossy bluish spots between nervures 7—4, above 
which there is a black line to costa and an ochreous white line downwards. 23 mm. Queensland. 
41. Genus: Timorodes Meyr. (Gryposoba Hmps.). 
Proboscis shorter than normally. The 2nd segment of palpi long and stout, the 3rd short. Antennae 
of ciliate. Thorax with a long brush-like tuft posteriorly. Forewings with a scaly “tooth'' at anal angle. On 
hindwings veins 4 and 5 arise from a point. The only species reminds one somewhat of the subsequent Bisoba 
species: 
blepharitis. T. blepharias Meyr. (= catagrapha Trnr., dinawa B.-Bak.) (39 c). Forewings dark reddish brown. 
From base and below the cell a wide white band extends to centre of wings. At apex a large triangular white 
patch. The outer line double, white with dark intertilling, intersecting the apical spot, then proceeding inwards 
to a small white spot on inner margin. Submarginal line white, punctiform. Abdomen and hindwings snow- 
white, tinged with brown at apex. 28—30 mm. New Guinea, Queensland.
