EXOTIC MICEOLEPIDOPTERA. 
New South Wales, Illawarra, December ( Schrader ) ; 1 ex. A 
remarkable and highly interesting species, a true 0'ryptolechia, as 
is indicated by the series of neural dots, as well as the minute 
ciliations of antennae and strictly parallel vein 4 of hindwings, 
vet superficially extremely like a Machimia . and perhaps really 
pointing to the already inferred phylogenetic connection of the two 
genera. 
TOKTRICIDiE. 
Capua chloraspis, n. sp. 
B . 13 mm. Head whitish-ochreous. Antennae dentate, cilia¬ 
tions 1. Thorax pale ochreous, patagia fuscous. Forewings 
rather oblong, costa with strong fold from base to near middle, 
termen nearly straight, rather oblique; fuscous, suffusedly mixed 
purplish-leaden, with scattered strigulae of blackish-fuscous irrora- 
tion; a pale ochreous basal patch, on costa reaching to 1, edge 
strongly inwards-oblique from costa, slightly curved, on costa with 
3 or 4 strigulae of dark fuscous irroration; a slightly inwards- 
oblique undefined streak of whitish suffusion from tornus reaching 
half across wing, and terminal area above this mixed obscurely 
pale ochreous and whitish: cilia whitish-ochreous, base more 
whitish, outer half suffused grey. Hindwings grey-whitish, 
suffused grey towards apex; cilia whitish. 
Bexoal (Bihar and Orissa), Saran ( Mackenzie ); 1 ex. Nearl} r 
allied to the common Australian retractanct. 
Homona polyarcha, n. sp. 
2 . 36 mm. Head, palpi orange. Thorax orange, an elongate 
black spot on patagia, and two dots near posterior extremity. 
Abdomen orange. Forewings suboblong, rather broad, costa 
rather strongly arched, becoming straight posteriorly, teimen 
rather rounded-prominent below middle ; light brownish-fulvous, 
costal and terminal margins suffused orange, crossed throughout 
by irregular fine black interrupted striae and strigulae: cilia 
orange, tips paler. Hindwings and cilia orange-yellow, some very 
faint deeper strigulation towards termen,

Cacoecia rhythmogramma, n. sp. 
B 5* 31-34 mm. Head, palpi, thorax light orange. Fore- 
wings suboblong, costa anteriorly moderately arched, in B without 
fold, termen slightly rounded, somewhat oblique ; whitish, with 
numerous fine black transverse interrupted striae or strigulae, a 
few scattered brownish-orange scales; narrow irregular orange 
lines along costa, (in B obsolete except at base) and dorsum con¬ 
nected with a slender terminal streak widened at apex; an 
irregular orange longitudinal streak starting in disc near base, 
interrupted (or nearly) at ^ by an oval whitish spot without black
