EXOTIC MICROLEPIDOPTERA. 
arched, apex rounded, termen rather obliquely rounded ; white 
thinly sprinkled dark fuscous, more closely on dorsal half anteriorly ; 
a short very oblique ill-defined dark fuscous streak from costa at 1, a 
similar less-developed streak from before middle of costa to disc 
beyond cell, its extremity curved, and a small spot on costa at | ; 
two small dark fuscous spots transversely placed on end of cell: 
cilia white. Hindwings and cilia rather light grey. 
Brazil, San Paulo, Araras (J . G. Foetterle ); 1 ex. (Vienna Hus.). 
The largest known species of the genus. 
EUCOSMID^E. 
Spilonota prolongata, n. sp. 
$ . 20-23 mm. Head, palpi, thorax fuscous. Forewings 
elongate, slightly dilated, costa gently arched, termen slightly 
sinuate, rather oblique; fuscous, sometimes brownish in disc, 
somewhat speckled darker; costa marked throughout with minute 
dark strigulm; an undefined more or less developed spot of dark 
fuscous suffusion towards dorsum before tornus ; a rather dark 
brown apical spot, and larger one in disc obliquely before it; ocellus 
indicated by thick obscure submetallic grey lateral streaks, within 
it 3 or 4 minute black dots : cilia light grey, several fine darker 
lines. Hindwings 3 and 4 long-stalked ; light grey, darker towards 
apex ; cilia pale grey, a darker subbasal line. 
Costa Rica, Irazu, 8000 feet, Hay ( Reimoser ); 7 ex. (type Vienna 
Hus.). In the absence of the male the generic identity is not 
absolutely assured, but I do not feel much doubt about it. 
Spilonota lechriaspis, n. sp. 
<5 $ . 12-16 mm. Head whitish-grey, crown more or less 
mixed grey. Palpi, thorax grey, pale-speckled. x4ntennal notch 
J subbasal. Forewings elongate, rather dilated, costa gently 
arched, without fold, apex obtuse, termen straight, vertical; grejq 
tips of scales whitish, forming a close irroration or striolation ; 
costa marked short scarcely oblique darker strigulse ; basal patch 
greyer and somewhat striated darker, limited by a well-marked 
dark grey stria obtusely angulated in middle, preceded by darker 
suffusion ; upper half of central fascia narrow, rather oblique, grey, 
remainder represented only by a triangular grey prsetornal spot 
partly edged blackish-grey; ocellus enclosed by thick obscure 
leaden erect streaks reaching f across wing, confluent beneath, 
space between these forming opposite upper half of termen a rather 
oblique grey shield pointed beneath and crossed by 3 or 4 fine 
black lines : cilia leaden-grey, tips blackish. Hindwings grey ; 
cilia pale grey, a darker subbasal line. 
S. Hanchtjria, Kwantung, June, July (T. Konclo ) ; 6 ex. Larva 
white, head and thoracic shield black ; very injurious to apple, and 
widely distributed from S. Hanchuria to Corea ( T . Kondo ). Nearly 
allied to prognatJicina Snell., but distinct.
