Schoenoploca typicota Meyr. 
By an unfortunate oversight in registration I have redescribed 
this genus and species (see p. 487) from additional specimens under 
the name of Limnopscires gymncistica. 
Schoenobius serenus, n. sp. 
$ . 53 mm. Head, palpi ochreous-whitish. Thorax whitish- 
ochreous. Abdomen reddish-ochreous, bases of segments tinged 
whitish, ventral surface whitish. Forewings very elongate- 
triangular, costa slightly arched, termen slightly rounded, somewhat 
oblique ; light ochreous-rufous, infuscated towards upper margin of 
cell, suffused Dale ochreous towards costa except posteriorly, 
extreme costal edge whitish: cilia pale ochreous, outer half 
ochreous-whitish. Hindwings and cilia white.

Schoenobius macrostonms Meyr. 
(5 22-23 mm., § 30-38 mm. Having obtained further ex¬ 
amples of this species from the original locality, exhibiting both 
sexes, I think it must be transferred from Scirpophaga to Schoenobius 
on the palpi. The development of ochreous tinge in forewings and 
abdomen varies considerably, but structurally I find no difference. 
In S the palpi are partly tinged grey, and in one example the 
costal edge of forewings is dark grey from base to near apex. 
PTEHOPHORID^E. 
Titanoptilus serrulatus, n, sp. 
cf . 18 mm. Head, thorax grey, apex of tegulae dark fuscous. 
Legs white banded tawny, tibiae with scales somewhat thickened at 
base of spurs, but without the large tufts of patellatus. Forewings 
grey sprinkled darker ; blackish dots in disc at -L, and above base of 
cleft; obscure dark fuscous bands crossing both lobes at ^ and |, 
some slight whitish suffusion on first lobe between and beyond 
these: cilia grey, on costa dark fuscous, white between bands and . 
just beyond second, with blackish patches beneath apex of both 
lobes, some scattered black scales on dorsum, with a slender white 
bar marking tornus. Hindwings grey irrorated dark grey, some 
whitish tinge on second and third lobes ; cilia grey, on dorsum of 
third lobe with a series of short rough black basal scales throughout, 
a rather large triangular blackish scale-tooth at 4, and somewhat 
smaller one beneath apex.
