Genus Myzorhynchus. 9] 
The larvae have very peculiar frontal tufts (fig. 4, e), the 
outer ones bushy, the inner feathery. 
Observations.—Walker’s types of vanus are very damaged, but 
enough remains to identify the species. 
MyzoRHYNCHUS MINUTUS. na. sp. 
Thorax slaty-grey, with three darker brown lines and pale 
hair-like scales ; palpi densely black scaled, with four narrow 
white bands, one apical; proboscis black. Abdomen deep 
brown, with pale golden hairs and a tuft of black scales 
beneath the penultimate segment. Legs brown; metatarsi 
and tarsi with narrow white apical bands. Wings with two 
white costal spots, and a third on the first long vein nearly 
reaching the costa towards the base, apex all yellow, veins with 
_ yellow and black scales. 
2. Head brown, clothed with grey upright forked scales in 
the middle behind, in front they become almost long curved 
scales, a few ochraceous upright forked scales at the sides, a tuft 
of white hair-like scales projecting forwards over the eyes ; palpi 
densely scaled, apex white and with three other small basal 
white bands; proboscis black ; antennae deep brown, the basal 
joint and next few following with white scales. 
Thorax slaty-grey to brown in some lights, with three darker 
brown lines, covered with scattered golden hair-like scales ;

notum deep brown ; pleurae brown with greyish reflections. 
Abdomen black, with some paler testaceous mottiing, covered 
with golden hairs and with a tuft of black scales beneath the 
penultimate segment. Legs deep brown, the anterior and mid 
with apical white bands to the metatarsi and first two tarsi, the 
hind with apical bands to three of the tarsi. 
Wings with the costa black, with two clear pure white spots, 
which spread on to the first long vein and the faintest trace on 
to the upper branch of the first fork-cell ; the first long vein has 
the white spot beneath the second costal spot prolonged into a 
line and has another smaller white spot nearer the base of the 
wing, not reaching the costa ; second long vein and the branches 
all black scaled, except a few white ones on the upper branch 
under the costal spot ; third long vein nearly all yellow scaled, 
a few black ones dotted about along it ; fourth vein black at the
