EXOTIC MICROLEPIDOPTERA. 
Anthistarcha binocnlaris, n. sp.

wholly white. Palpi white, slightly speckled dark grey, second 
joint with two blackish bars, tufted beneath throughout with long 
white hairscales, terminal joint with black subbasal ring. Fore- 
wings elongate, apex obtuse-pointed; termen very obliquely rounded: 
grey with tips of scales white, forming a close minute irroration ; 
scattered black scales sometimes forming longitudinal streaks, 
especially on dorsal half anteriorly, and one from end of cell to 
beneath apex; a light grey tuft irrorated black representing plical 
stigma; an 8-shaped light yellow-ochreous spot' edged with raised 
black scales on end of cell; two or three sometimes indistinct black 
oblique strigulse on costa about J-, and an interrupted black costal 
line towards apex : cilia grey minutely speckled whitish, on costa 
barred blackish, on tornal area light greyish. Hindwings 1, termen 
hardly sinuate, cilia 4-; pale bluish-grey ; cilia whitish-ochreous-

Brazil, Bahia, bred from larvae feeding in twigs of cashew-nut 
( Ancicardiitm occidentale) {Dr. G. Bonder ) ; 7 ex. (type Brit. Mus.). 
Apparently truly congeneric with the single hitherto known species 
of Anthistarcha , but the c? has not the ochreous hairpencil of hind- 
wings. Notwithstanding differences in neuration of hindwings, 
the genus is truly allied to Pachygeneie and Leuca. 
Stenolechia trichaspis Meyr. 
Kashmir, Gulmarg, 3 ex. bred April from Pinus excelsa {Beeson).

at |, and one obliquely beyond it towards dorsum ; a large tri¬ 
angular blotch extending on costa from ^ to f, and reaching |
