EXOTIC MICROLEPIDOPTERA. 
preceded in upper part of disc by greyish suffusion ; area beyond 
this grey, with some white suffusion following line in disc, with 
two or three short blackish streaks before costa separated by 
brownish suffusion, and a white marginal line edged anteriorly 
very finely brown with a series of small black dots : cilia white, 
an antemedian series of brown spots, on lower half of termen 
suffused fuscous, tips partially fuscous above this. Hindwings 
grey; costa somewhat expanded and with long fringe of projecting 
whitish hairs on anterior half, beneath this an ochreous-white 
expansible hairpencil from base reaching middle ; cilia light grey, 
forming a thickened darker grey tuft at origin before apex. 
Brazil, 1 ex. (Coll. Paravicini). A peculiar form. 
Antaeotricha copromima, n. sp. 
5 . 30 mm. Head, palpi white. Thorax dark brownish-grey, 
posterior extremity white, shoulders narrowly white. Porewings 
elongate, parallel-sided, costa anteriorly gently arched, faintly 
sinuate in middle, apex obtuse, termen rounded, slightly oblique; 
7 to costa; white; a triangular yellowish-fuscpus blotch, irregularly 
suffused glistening grey-whitish centrally, extending on dorsum 
from base to and reaching more than half across wing, posterior 
edge direct, towards angles above margined with orange-yellow 
suffusion; a small light grey spot on or above dorsum somewhat 
beyond middle: second discal stigma indistinct, dark grey, preceded 
and followed by confluent pale grey spots, some pale yellow suffu¬ 
sion above first, beneath second a pale greyish transverse spot 
extending to dorsum ; a slightly curved pale grey narrow fascia 
from tornus reaching -| across wing, terminated above with pale 
yellowish; a wedge-shaped grey-yellowish blotch preceding upper 
part of termen; some grey terminal marks: cilia white, suffused 
grey on termen. Hindwings light grey ; cilia white. 
French Guiana, B. Maroni, 1 ex. (Coll. Paravicini). Perhaps 
nearest cryeropis; the imitation of bird’s excrement is obvious. 
Antaeotricha catharactis, n. sp. 
3. 20 mm. Head whitish. Palpi white, second joint grey 
except tip. Antennal ciliations 1|. Thorax grey. Forewings 
moderate, narrow at base, costa moderate^ arched, apex rounded, 
termen rounded, somewhat oblique: 2 and 3 short-stalked, 6 to 
apex (indefinite); white ; an oblong lilac-fuscous patch extending, 
over basal third of dorsum and at base to costa ; some lighter 
fuscous suffusion, consisting of four transverse subconfluent clouds, 
occupying dorsal area from this to near tornus, and reaching fold ; 
a small fuscous spot in disc at ^ ; a roundish blotch of light 
fuscous suffusion in disc before middle, nearly reaching costa, edged 
posteriorly by a light ochreous bar preceded by some darker fuscous 
markings ; second discal stigma greyish-ochreous, from just beyond 
this a thick light greyish-ochreous shade to dorsum, and above this 
a small spot on costa: cilia white. Hindwings light grey, apical
