GRACILARIADJE. 
269 
narrow, short-pointed ; bronzy-brown ; markings snow-white, 
finely edged blackish; a slender irregular almost basal fascia, and 
dot on costa just beyond it ; broad fascise at | and narrowed 
upwards, anterior edge of first rather inwards-oblique from costa, 
of second direct, posterior edge of both rather irregular; a dot on 
costa about £ ; a transverse fascia from costa towards apex, reaching 
termen at posterior angle only; a small apical mark : cilia pale 
greyish, at apex white with black basal and median bars. (Hind- 
wings and abdomen missing.) 
Bombay, Ma.hableskwar, bred May from larva mining an irregular 
blotch under upper cuticle of leaf of Terminalia Chebula (Gombre - 
taceoe), larva turns orange and wanders to pupate in an external 
oval whitish cocoon, with two white bubbles on surface (Mrs. M. L. 
Maxwell ); 1 ex. Nearty allied to A. calycojjhthalma (which feeds 
on Terminalia belerica ), but readily separated by the different form 
of the fasciae and the absence of the strong black streak preceding 
the praeapical fascia; A. terminalice Staint. (from Terminalia 
catappa) is also allied. 
Acrocercops enthycolona Meyr. 
Bombay, Salsette I., reared from larvae mining a large ovate 
blotch under upper cuticle of leaf of Bassia latifolia (Sapotacece ), 
the surface of blotch pinkish, shining, and opaque, so that it is 
difficult to see the larva underneath (Mrs. M. L. Maxwell). The 
type-specimens were bred from Mimusops, a tree of the same 
Natural Order. 
Acrocercops thylacaula, n. sp. 
<5 . 7 mm. Head, thorax white, tegulae bronzy-fuscous. Palpi 
white, apex of second joint and base of terminal blackish, second 
joint with slight apical projection beneath. Porewings very narrow, 
bronzy-fuscous ; a moderate snow-white dorsal streak from base to 
tornus, apex with a semioval expansion reaching more than half 
across wing, on tornus just connected with a narrow white terminal 
streak to apex ; a slender black streak along posterior \ of costa, 
enclosing a minute white mark and 2 or 3 specks, its extremity 
bent sharply down to termen before a white apical dot: cilia pale 
grey, round apex basal portion white with a blackish subbasal bar. 
Hindwings grey ; cilia light violet-grey. 
Bombay, Mahableshwar, bred May from larvae mining a slightly 
star-shaped blotch under upper cuticle of leaf of Allopkylus Cobbe 
(Sapindacece), larva green, turning red before wandering to pupate 
in a cream-coloured oval cocoon (Mrs. M. L. Maxvjell). Closely 
allied to lyrica , but differing from it by the wmll-marked semioval 
expansion of dorsal streak, the absence of a projection before the 
black costal streak, and differently marked palpi. 
Acrocercops bifrenis Meyr. 
Previously reared by Mr. R. M. Maxwell from unidentified food- 
plants; an example, unquestionably of the same species, now sent
