Peru, Madre de Dios, 3300 feet; 1 ex. (Vienna Mus„). Allied 
to monura, 
Urodns scythroclialca, n. sp. 
<3 . 24 mm. Head, palpi, thorax rather dark indigo-fuscous, 
palpi short. Antennae serrate. Forewings elongate, rather dilated, 
costa gently arched, apex rounded-obtuse, termen rounded, rather 
oblique; deep shining bronze: cilia bronzy. Hindwings rather 
dark grey, towards costa tinged indigo, without hairpencil; cilia 
light bronzy-grey. Forewings beneath with 12 slightly roughened 
with scales anteriorly, without fringe of hairs ; cell except towards 
base, and area above it to vein 12 suffused dark fuscous, no naked 
space. Genitalia : uncus short, straight, moderately thick, apex 
rounded ; gnathos somewhat longer, straight, moderate, narrowed, 
pointed ; valva long, narrow, apically upcurved, pointed. 
Costa Riga, Orosi, 5000 feet; 1 ex. (Vienna Mus.). 
Lotisma vulcanicola, n. sp. 
<4 . 17 mm. Antennae fasciculate-ciliated (2). Palpi slenderer 
than in trigonana, with appressed scales. Fore wings more whitish- 
tinged than in trigonana , but characteristic markings and blackish 
dots entirely similar. Hindwings and cilia whitish. 
Costa Rica, Irazu, 8000 feet, May ( Reimoser ); 1 ex. (Vienna 
Mus.). This, the second species of this curious genus, is a smaller 
insect and certainly distinct from the first by the much longer 
antennal ciliations and whitish hindwings ; the fore wings are not 
in very good condition, and therefore I do not describe the markings 
in detail, but they are practically identical. 
XYLORY CTIDiE. 
Rpimactis melitliorax Meyr.

lighter grey than in <$ ; cilia light greyish, becoming pale yellowish 
round apex. 
Kumaon, Bhimtal, 4500 feet; 2 ex. Described originally from
