Neuration of (1) Alipsa and (2) Paralip&a. ing the specimen) appears to spring from near the base of the subcostal, and both of these veins almost immediately pass under a long depressed mass of hair-scales, from which they emerge just about the centre of the wing, the costal vein passing obliquely upwards to the margin, and the subcostal throwing off the first of its five branches parallel to it; paral- lel to and below the subcostal is an arched vein, from which both the radials are emitted; the discocellulars are absent; and the median vein, which is normal in structure^ curves slightly upwards towards the radials ; the false vein below the median curves slightly downwards at its extremity ; the sub- median is decidedly shorter than in Alipsa: the principal difference in the secondaries is that the second and third median branches are unusually short, little more than half the length of those in Alipsa: the palpi are unfortunately absent; but in other respects the body is similar. Type P. modesta. 118. Paralipsa modesta, n. sp. (no. 1170). Coloration of Alipsa angustella: primaries above lilac-grey, speckled with black, and with a central forked pale ferrugi- nous streak, a minute black subbasal dash, and a rounded black subcostal spot at apical third: secondaries sericeous white, with diffused dusky outer border, most distinct at apex : thorax lilacinegrey; abdomen testaceous, with a pearly lustre. Under surface sordid white, the primaries with dusky external fourth. Expanse of wings 10 lines. Crambidae. 119. Crambus sabidvnus, n. sp. (no. 1110). Primaries red-brown, with a lilac reflection ; costal border white ; a band of clay-colour across the basal third, its inner. Please note that t
