Show 410 MR. W. WARREN ON NEW GENERA AND [Apr. 18, radial from above the middle of the discocellular ; upper radial the end of cell; as a result of the ends of the subcostal and median nervules being inclined towards one another, the cell is very distinctly wider at f than at its extremity. Hind wings with the discocellular angulated, the upper half vertical, the lower oblique; the two subcostal nervules separating shortly before the end of the cell. Type, Eurytaphria undilineata, sp. n. EURYTAPHRIA UNDILINEATA, sp. n. 3 2 • Wings dark pinky grey, more or less suffused with pale tawny, and dusted with fuscous and black atoms. No distinct first line; the second line starts at 4 of the costa, runs outwardly oblique to the upper radial, where it forms a minute tooth, then describes a large sinus parallel to the hind margin, and curves inwards to the inner margin shortly before the anal angle; the sinus is connected with the hind margin by 2 wedge-shaped streaks, and the lower part of the line above the anal angle appears to be geminated; a small blackish cell-spot; disk suffused with pale tawny; costa and hind margin most thickly sprinkled with fuscous striga?. Hind wings like fore wings, with black discal spot and an indistinct denticulated black line halfway between it and hind margin; fringes concolorous, with a blackish basal line. The above description is taken from a 3 ; in the 2 there is no tawny suffusion; the mottlings are black instead of fuscous, and the second line only visible towards the anal angle ; the basal line of the fringes is represented by a series of black spots and clashes, and the cell-spots on both Avings are black and therefore more distinct. Underside of both wings paler grey, mottled with darker, with the cell-spots and outer line showing through. Expanse of wings, § 36, 3 34 milhm. Hab. Sikkim. Subfam. SELIDOSEMIN^E. A N A G O G E (?) ALBIPICTA, sp. n. 2 . Fore wings dark fuscous, with a few indistinct, scattered, ochreous, transverse striga?; basal line darker, edged internally with paler; a dark discal spot; exterior line darker, interrupted in the centre and edged externally by a rather distinct pale ochreous line; submarginal line indistinct, except in the centre opposite to the interrupted portion of the 2nd line, where it is indicated by a pale blotch ; extreme hind margin with pale vertical striga?; fringes brown. Hind wings like fore wings, but somewhat duller; the exterior line without the whitish edges. Underside duller, with all the markings reproduced. Abdomen cinereous. Head wanting. Expanse of wings 28 millim. Hab. Sikkim. The hind margin of fore wings is regularly curved, not bent above the anal angle. [Taken at Jongri, 13,000 feet, by m y native collectors.-H.J.E.] |
