second costal, second oblique, wedge-shaped, reaching half across 
wing; a group of black irroration extending along termen, but no 
distinct apical spot: cilia whitish, a fine black antemedian line

Assam, Shillong, 5000 feet, beaten from apple ( Fletcher ) ; 1 ex. 
The specimen is in perfect condition and probably therefore the 
apple is its food-plant; it belongs to the jpomifoliella group, but is 
quite distinct from any of the European species, especially by the 
white costal line on basal area. 
Epicephala eridopa, n. sp.

slightly oblique suffused white streak from middle of costa reaching 
-§ across wing ; a very oblique black streak from costa at | reaching
