Cypholomia crypsibela, n. sp. 
3 24-25 mm., $ 30-33 mm. Head, thorax white, sometimes 
a few blackish specks. Palpi white, sometimes tinged pink, 
variably more or less suffused blackish-grey irroration externally. 
Antennae 3 stout, shortly ciliated. Forewings elongate-triangular, 
2 more elongate, costa slightly arched, termen 3 rather obliquely 
rounded, 2 more oblique; 10 3 out of 8 , 2 separate, 11 con¬ 
current with 12 ; white, thinly speckled black; in 2 $ examples 
a slender blackish-grey attenuated median streak from near base to 
near termen, also more slightly marked and shorter in 1 3 ; 
second line faintly indicated, at |, rather excurved, fine, greyish, 
sometimes followed by faint silvery suffusion ; a terminal series of 
black dots : cilia golden-whitish, a greyish basal line. Hindwings 
ochreous-whitish with faint greyish suffusion, more marked in $ , 
especially on lower margin of cell; cilia whitish, sometimes a faint 
greyish basal shade. 
Belgian Congo, Elisabethville, November, December (C. Seydel)-, 
8 ex. (4 3 , 4 $) (type Belg. Cong. Mus.). The sexual difference 
in neuration (probably connected with the difference in form of 
wing) extends the generic characters. 
Conotalis phacodes, n. sp. 
3 . 28-30 mm. Head white. Palpi pale ochreous, slightly 
speckled fuscous, white internally. Antennae rather stout, filiform, 
simple. Thorax white slightly speckled fuscous. Forewings 
elongate-triangular, costa slightly arched, termen somewhat bowed, 
rather oblique; pale brownish-ochreous, tinged whitish anteriorly 
slightly and irregularly speckled fuscous; several small spots of 
fuscous speckling in disc on margins of cell, and one larger and 
elongate on upper margin in middle of wing; two irregular series 
of small fuscous spots about i indicating margins of second line ; 
a terminal series of minute black dots; cilia ochreous-whitish, 
a brownish-ochreous antemedian shade. Hindwings ochreous- 
whitish irrorated pale grey ; cilia whitish.

Charltona plurivittalis Hamps. 
I find that liopsamma Meyr. is the 2 of this species; I have 
uow seen a good series of 16 examples of both sexes.
