PREFACE.
THe subject of the 2nd volume of the Catalogue of Lepidoptera Phalene is the family Arctiade, of which 1217 species belonging to the subfamilies Nolinw and Lithosiane are here dealt with, leaving the least specialized ssubfamily—the Arctiaie—to be classified in the 3rd volume.
I have to thank all those mentioned in the Ist volume who, by the loan of material, have again assisted Sir George Hampson in the preparation of this volume; also Herr G. Semper, of Altona, for the loan of species described by him in his Lepidoptera of the Philippines; Dr. J. F. M. Heylaerts, of Breda, for species described from the Malayan subregion; Dr. A. J. Turner, of Brisbane, and Oswald Lower, Esq., of Broken Hill, N. 8. Wales, for species from Australia. I have great pleasure in acknowledging the assistance given to Sir George Hampson’s undertaking by the Secretary of State for India, who has granted the use of all the blocks and drawings made in preparing the volumes on Moths in the Fauna of India series; this loan will materially lessen the cost of each volume
of the Catalogue.

LEPIDOPTERA PHALEN &.
Family ARCTIADZ.
Proboscis usually well developed, sometimes aborted ; palpi usually short, sometimes long and porrect or upturned ; antenne ciliated or bipectinate ; tibix with the spurs usually short or moderate. Fore wing with vein la forming a fork with 16, le absent; 5 from below angle of discocellulars or coincident with 4. Hind wing with veins 1 a& b present, Le absent; 5 from below angle of discocellulars or coincident with 4; 8 coincident with the upper margin of cell to near or to well beyond middle, sometimes to beyond upper angle ; frenulum present ; retinaculam almost always bar-shaped.
A family of Moths of small to large size derived from the Noctuidae, from which they may be distinguished by vein 8 of the hind wing being coincident with the upper margin of the cell from base, instead of arising free and then more or less strongly anasto- mosing with the cell. In some species of Auwtomolis vein 8 is coincident with the cell to beyond the upper angle in the males, whilst in some specimens of varions species of Hucercon, near the point of origin of the family Syntomide, vein 8 is sometimes absent, or partially aborted, or replaced by two or three spurs between the cell and costa.
The family is divided into three subfamilies, the Noline, Litho- siane, and Arctiane ; the first two have the ocelli absent, the Noline having tufts of raised scales in the cell of fore wing at base, middle, and extremity, whilst in the lowest subfamily, the Arctiane, the ocelli are present, as in their ancestors among the Noctwide.
The larvae of the Arctiade have a similar arrangement of the warts and tufts of hair to that described and figured in the Syntomide, Vol. I. p. 22; but in the subfamily Noline the Ist pair of prolegs on somite 6 are absent: they usually feed exposed, forming a cocoon

of silk and hair, the pupa also being similar to that of the Syntomide. Three groups of genera have usually been placed in the Arctiade which should have been referred to other families—Wyctemera and its allies in the Old World, and Pericopis and allies in the Neo- tropical region, have vein 8 of the hind wing separate from the cell and connected with it by a bar, and should be placed in the Hypside ; whilst Sarrothripa and the allied genera, which have been asso- ciated with the Nolin, are better placed as a parallel development in the Noctuide, having the ocelli present, vein 8 of the hind wing free at extreme base, and the larvee having the prolegs on somite 6 present ; and thirdly, Harias, Halias, and allies should also be placed in the Noctuide, having the ocelli present and vein 8 arising free.

Subfamily NOLIN.
Proboscis usually fully developed, sometimes aborted; palpi porrect, sometimes oblique, the 2nd joint roughly scaled above and below; maxillary palpi minute, invisible, in Archinola large and triangularly scaled ; frons and basal joint of antenne usually with tufts of scales; tibiee with the spurs long. Fore wing with tufts of raised scales in cell, near base, at middle and at upper angle. Hind wing with vein 8 coincident with the cell to near or beyond middle.

food-plant ; sometimes feeding in webs, whilst in Celama internella the larva feeds in the interior of the young fleshy shoots of 2ubus, but has retained its bright coloration and tufts of hair and forms a boat-shaped cocoon in the open, so that the habit of internal feeding must be of very recent acquirement.
The Noline probably arose from a very early Arctian form which had affinities in the Noctwide to Hypena and Sarrothripa, both of which have raised tufts of scales in the cell of fore wing—the former having the prolegs on somite 6 of the larva absent as in many other Noctuidae, whilst the latter forms a boat-shaped cocoon exactly like’ that of the Nolin, and also has the bar-shaped retinaculum, both of which characters occur in the group of Noctuid genera comprising Earias, Halias, Carea, and allies.
Of the genera of Nolinw, Pexinola and Melaleucta represent terminal developments from archaic forms, whilst Archinola with large triangularly-scaled maxillary palpi, these being invisible in the other genera, represents probably the form nearest to the ancestor of the other recent genera, which are all closely allied.

Full-grown larva snow-white, covered with a down-like detachable substance with slight creamy tinge below ; the hairs white, except five or six long b!ack hairs on thoracic somites ; head buff marked with brown strizw ; a dorsal black mark on Ist somite, partly hidden by the tuft which after the last moult bears five head- skins. The larva progresses with a jerky motion. It forms a boat-shaped cocoon by biting off pieces of rotten wood and bark and interlacing them with the long hairs which are left projecting; before fastening down the flap of cocoon it rubs its head against it for a long time, and with much difficulty detaches
the tuft and head-skins ang attaches them to the side of cocoon. ( Dudgeon.)
