— 272 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM BULLETIN 257 blotches or raised tufts on veins, tending to form transverse strigiilation; a dark brown-purplish suffusion on base of costa, edged by ferruginous tawny; a transverse series of two large rounded, raised ferruginous-tawny tufts, mixed with a few long white hair-scales, one tuft above dorsum, another in cell, edged posteriorly in fold by a dark purple suffusion; two similar tawny tufts, on upper edge of cell at 1/3 of wing length, and on base of vein 10, respectively; some three smaller tufts along vein lb; two large white tufts, on upper and lower angles of cell, respectively, upper largest; a sometimes ill-defined slightly outwards-oblique transverse streak of pale ground color, at about 2/7 of wing, followed by two broad and one narrow blackish transverse bands, last marginal, in apex; numerous smaller, variably colored tufts scattered all over the wing. Cilia pale grey, mixed and barred with darker grey except in tornus, a black interrupted subbasal hue. Hindwing with vein 2 from middle, 3 from beyond middle, 4 from angle, 5 and 6 separate; pale ochreous, irregularly marbled with bronze grey, veins bronze purple, costa and dorsum with a purple gloss. Cilia golden fuscous, with a pale basal line. Female genitalia: Lamella antevaginalis rectangular, rather narrower and much longer than in G. diascopa. Anapoph^^ses longer and more slender. Material examined: Luzon, Mt. Makiling (Baker), 1 9, holotype, genit. slide 5268; 2 9, paratypes (USNM). Mindanao, Lanao, plains, Kolambugan, 2.VIL1914 (A.E. Wileman), 1 9, paratype (BM). Judging from the genitalia, closely allied to the preceding species (G. diascopa). Harmaclona Busck, 1914 Figures 412, 454-456 Harmaclona Busck, 1914, Proc. U.S. Nat. Mus., vol 47, p. 63 (Tineidae).

To the description of this remarkable genus should be added the following points. Labial palpi sometimes widely diverging, always

Maxillary palpi moderately short, Harmaclona tephrantha (Meyrick, 1916), new combination Figures 426, 457-458, 461, 769 Ptychoxena tephrantha Meyrick, 1916, Exotic Microlepidoptera, vol. 1, p. 616 (cf 9, Ceylon, Bhotan, Natal, Venezuela, French Guiana).— Clarke, 1955, Catalogue . . . Microlepidoptera . . . Meyrick, vol. 1, p. 304. Distribution: Recorded by Meyrick from Ceylon, India, South and West Africa, South America, Bismarck Is., Northeast Australia, China, Malaya. Probably several distinct species and subspecies are concerned. Material examined: Luzon, Mt. Makiling (Baker), 3 cf , genit. slide 5285; 1 9, genit. slide 5272 (USNM). Luzon, Benguet Subprov., Klondyke, 800 ft., 16.III.1912 (A.E. Wileman), 1 9 (BM). Male genitalia: Tegumen, a broad and simple plate with a rounded edge. Tuba analis as long as tegumen, sclerotized, with a ventral split, extended far capitad as a sclerotized oval plate, so forming a large subscaphium. Vinculum, a narrow ring. Saccus short and pointed. Valva elongate, strongly concave longitudinally, ventral angle pointed. Cucullus long, finger-shaped. Processus basilis moderate. Juxta small, oval, du^cted backwards (rostrad). Anellus short, tubular. Aedeagus slender, moderately long, apical third attenuate, edge with sparse serrations. Female genitalia: Eighth tergite sclerotized, with prominent lower angles. Ostium, a simple, rather wide funnel. Colliculum indicated, a hyaline tube. Ductus and corpus bursae simple. Ischnuridia Sauber, 1902 Ischnuridia Sauber, 1902, in Semper, Schmetterlinge Philippiuischen Insein, vol. 2, p. 704—Fletcher 1929, Mem. Dept. Agric. India, Ent. ser., vol. 11, p. 119 (Lyonetiidae?) Type species: Ischnuridia virginella Sauber, 1902 (Philippine Is.). This mysterious genus has been attributed by Meyrick to the family Lyonetiidae, according to his unpublished notes, preserved in the British <strong>Museum</strong> (Natural History). Fletcher followed him (1929) but recorded the family name with a question mark. Apparently the species has never been restudied. With the kind help of Dr. Heinz Schroder, Senckenberg <strong>Museum</strong>, Frankfurt am Main, Germany, I was able to place the insect exactly. The unique type specimen of the type species is preserved in that museum. I was allowed to dissect the distal portion of the abdomen, while Dr. Schroder kindly provided me with a photograph
