Java, Koetoardjo, 11. Awibowo, bred February from larva on 
Cocos nucifera ; cocoon (sent) hard, egg-shaped (length 4 mm., 
breadth 3 mm.), formed of a brown glutinous-looking presumably 
excreted substance covered with a whitish film, the top accurately 
sliced off for emergence ; 1 ex. (Brit. Mus.).

Acrocercops acanthidias, n. sp. 
S . 7 mm. Head, thorax white. Forewings very narrow; 
brown ; a moderate slightly uneven white dorsal stripe from base to 
near apex, somewhat broadly triangular-indented and very finely

edule (Dr. L. G. E. Kalshoven ); 1 ex. Allied to the group of

Acrocercops carcharota Meyr. 
Examples of this species, kindly sent me for determination by 
Prof. F. Silvestri, were stated to have been reared from a species 
of Stcipelia ( Asclepiadacece ) in a hot-house at San Bemo ; doubtless 
imported with their foodplant (not previously ascertained) from 
South Africa.
