sometimes partially or almost wholty suffused dark grey, especially on 
median area ; a transverse line of white irroration near base more 
or less indicated; first line at about curved, of irregular white inter¬ 
rupted marking or irroration, second similar, at f, interrupted 
towards costa, a narrow white transverse spot from costa beyond 
middle, connected with a variably indicated discal ring resting on 
second line, area preceding this often speckled whitish and sometimes 
also blackish ; some slight whitish speckling towards termen : cilia 
grey, a darker subbasal shade, patches of whitish suffusion above

Choreutis atmodesma, n. sp. 
cj 2 • 13-16 mm. Nearly related to preceding, but larger, fore¬ 
wings termen somewhat more oblique, antennal eiliations c 5 3 ; 
forewings with suffused white subbasal fascia, postmedian white 
costal spot enlarged into a trapezoidal blotch confluent with thick 
suffused white discal ring, which is connected with dorsum by 
thick white angular lower portion of second line, a more or less 
expressed sinuate blackish streak from costa near apex to tornus, 
sometimes some blue-metallic specks about this and beyond first line.

Note the remarkable occurrence of these two closely allied but 
distinct species together ; seasonal and geographical influences are 
therefore excluded, but it might be found that they are attached to 
separate foodplants (which are doubtless Comj>ositce). 
Choreutis chrysostacta, n. sp. 
<J 2 • 9-10 mm. Head whitish mixed grey. Palpi white 
mixed blackish. Thorax dark bronzy-fuscous, three fine lines of

verse fasciae of white irroration rising from small silvery-white 
costal spots, first about straight, direct, second postmedian, 
excurved in disc, accompanied by irregularly strewn small bright 
violet-golden-metallic spots, and several such spots in dorsal half 
between fasciae ; a spot of orange suffusion on costa beyond second 
fascia, followed by an oblique violet-golden-metallic streak ; apical 
and terminal margin obscurely suffused orange, preceded by a bright 
violet-golden-metallic streak round apex, and an irregular similar 
streak on lower part of termen: cilia metallic-grey, a dark grey 
basal line followed by an interrupted whitish line. Hindwings
