U. dinawa B.-Bak. (44 b). Forewings reddish brown. Antemedian line black with pale inner edge, dinawa. 
oblique and dentate to vein 1. Some white at lower angle of cell and above origin of vein 2. Markings diffuse 
behind the cell, reniform stigma absent. Black postmedian line acutely dentate at veins 7, 6 and 5, excurved 
on submedian fold as in rama. No discal band on hindwings, marginal band narrower than hitherto. 65 mm. 
One pair known from New Guinea. 
U. longipalpus Joic.& Talb. (50 a). Forewings grey-brown with lilac sheen. Antemedian line black, longipalpus. 
double with white interfilling, undulate. A round white spot above the origin of vein 2. Reniform stigma lilac- 
brown, large and indistinct. A. white patch below costa anterior to postmedian line, like in the other species. 
The postmedian line more boldly angulated outwards only at vein 5, otherwise in regular faint dentations. Sub¬ 
marginal line lilac-white, uniformly dentate, with black triangles distally. Hindwings pale yellow, darker 
towards inner margin, outer margin widely black. 65 mm. One pair known from New Guinea. 
U. trisa Swh. (44 b). Very small. Forewings pale brown. Antemedian line double, the inner branch trisa. 
fainter, oblique, barely undulate. Reniform stigma and a round dot above the origin of vein 2 paler, with 
delicate black surrounds. Dentate postmedian line extends widely outward over vein 5, then in dentations 
inward and angulated further inwards on vein 1. Submarginal line consists of black sagittate marks, crossed 
by a diffuse oblique subapical band. Hindwings pale yellow, orange at inner margin. The short dark marginal 
band encloses a large pale apical spot. 40 mm. One G from Bombay. 
5. Genus: H^potaelia Hm'ps. 
Palpi obliquely erect, frons with projecting brush of hair. Antennae of G with fascicles. Fore tibiae 
without spurs, hind tibiae only spurred at extremity. Forewings elongate, neuration normal. The 4 known 
species of this Genus are african-arabian. Only indecisa Wkr. is widely distributed over India. 
H. indecisa Wkr. (= sabulosa Swh.). This grey indistinctly marked species has already been dealt indecisa. 
with in Vol. XV, p. 212 and illustrated on pi. 20 d. N. India and also in Aden. 
6. Genus: Cocytocles Gn. 
This Genus has already been fully discussed in Vol. Ill, p. 321, and in Vol. XV, p. 213, so that we 
need merely refer to what was said there. Of the 2 species of this Genus, the palaearctic coerulea Gn. extends 
into the australian archipelago. 
C. coerulea Gn. This common and generally known species and its life history were already described coerulea. 
in Vol. Ill, p. 321. It is also illustrated there on p. 58 c. 
7. Genus: Paragarista B.-Bak. 
This and the following Genus embrace a few very brightly coloured species. The palpi of both Genera 
are long and upturned, the 3rd segment being longer in Paragarista. Antennae of G finely ciliate. Only one 
species is known. 
P. albostriata B.-Bak. (50 b). Forewings chocolate-brown with yellowish white scales at inner margin, albostriata. 
Median nervure and inner line bluish white. The latter vertical, undulate, expanding to a patch on vein 1. An 
oval bluish white annulus from the lower angle of cell to this patch. The postmedian band is somewhat oblique, 
almost straight to submedian fold, dividing there, the narrow inner branch somewhat bluish, the other branch 
extending to anal angle. Submarginal line with blue striations anteriorly, then pale yellow. Hindwings blue- 
black. 48 mm. One G known from New Guinea. 
8. Genus: Haesitabasis Hmps. 
Differing from the preceding Genus by the shorter tip of the palpi. Antennae with rather heavier 
cilia. Type: calodesma Rothsch., besides which there is another indian species. 
H. calodesma Rothsch. (50 b). Forewings black-brown. Basal half of costa and the cell red, conjoining calodesma. 
a wide yellow excurved band, that terminates near anal angle on inner margin. Fringes yellow at apex. Hind¬ 
wings dark chocolate-brown, fringes orange-yellow. G 50—60 mm. New Guinea. 
? H. pulchrifascia Hulst is very similar to the preceding species, but antennae finely ciliate, the cell pulchri- 
of hindwings is much shorter. Thorax anteriorly ochreous yellow, the remainder of the body is black. Wings 
black, with bluish sheen here and there. Transverse band orange-red, wider at costa, terminating closer to 
anal angle, its inner edge passes over the origin of vein 2, the outer over that of vein 7. A small yellow 
spot at apex. On hindwings a large orange-red apical spot extending to vein 5, below which the fringes are black. 
55 mm. One G from New Guinea.
