Promalactis symbolopa, n. sp. 
2 . 9 mm. Head, thorax bronzy-fuscous, face shining white. 
Palpi fulvous-brown, terminal joint dark fuscous, extreme tip 
whitish. Antennse white ringed black. Forewings orange; 
markings snow-white, edged black scales; a slender oblique streak 
above base of dorsum; a rather oblique streak from beneath costa 
at | to dorsum; a wedgeshaped slightly oblique spot from costa 
beyond middle reaching half across wing, two short converging 
streaks from dorsum meeting just beneath apex of this; a small 
apical spot, a slight mark on costa above it, and two on termen 
below it: cilia orange. Hindwings grey ; cilia light grey.

A cJ from Khasi Hills, Assam, November, agrees accurately with 
this except that the second of the two dorsal converging streaks is 
obsolete, and the marginal marks adjoining the apical spot more 
minute; I regard it as conspecific. 
Pleurota amaurodoxa, n. sp. 
6 . 14—17 mm. Head, palpi, thorax dark grey mixed whitish. 
Forewings elongate, costa gently arched, apex pointed, termen 
straight, very oblique; dark grey, sometimes suffused brown; 
costal edge white from near base to |; a slender subcostal streak 
of brownish-ochreous or brown suffusion from base to near middle: 
cilia grey, on costa whitish. Hindwings dark grey ; cilia grey.

Pleurota teligerella Staud. 
Having seen eight good examples of this Spanish insect (sub¬ 
sequently sunk by Staudinger himself as a synonym of ericella 
Dup.) from San Ildefonso (Chretien) and Estepar (Agenjo), I am 
now satisfied that it is a good species, and Chretien was of the same 
opinion; it is much larger than ericella , and the distinctive 
characters given by Staudinger are correct and constant. 
Depressaria spectrocentra, n. sp. 
$. 20 mm. Head brownish-ochreous. Palpi brownish-ochreous, 
mixed dark brown, terminal joint with two dark bands, tip whitish. 
Thorax brown. Forewings elongate, slightly dilated, costa gently 
arched, apex rounded, termen obliquely rounded; 2 remote from 
angle; brown, veins obscurely streaked blackish, accompanied with 
a few grey scales, basal area suffused blackish except towards costa ; 
a distinct whitish dot representing second discal stigma, one smaller 
and more obscure indicating first: cilia light brownish. Hind¬ 
wings 3 and 4 short-stalked, 5 approximated at base; light greyish, 
veins and termen darker grey; cilia pale greyish, a grey subbasal 
shade.
