PREFATOKY NOTE.



WITH the present volume the first group of Indian Inver-
tebrata included in the present Series is completed. Of
the remaining Lepidoptera, the Butterflies are being fully
described elsewhere, whilst the Tineas, Tortrices, and a few
other lowly organized forms are not sufficiently known
for a general description to be practicable at present. The
magnitude of the work is shown by the fact that the four
volumes of Moths, with the Appendix to the last volume,
contain descriptions of 5618 species regarded as valid,
exclusive of races or subspecies.

The number of Indian Insects and other Invertebrata is
so large, and that of students and collectors of the majority
of the groups so small, that it is very difficult to deal with
most of the orders. I am therefore fortunate in being able
to announce that the next volume (to be published, it
is hoped, early in 1897) will commence the description of
the Hymenoptera, and contain the Bees and Wasps by
ol. C. T. Bingham.

PREFACE.



THE Fourth Volume of the Moths in the ' Fauna of British
India ' deals with the subfamilies, genera, and species of
Indian Pyralida.

In the lowest subfamily, the Pyraustina, the least specia-
lized form is Simtethistis tricolor, with vein 5 of each wing
from the middle of the discocellulars, all the subcostals of the
fore wing from the cell, vein 8 of the hind wing free, and
the palpi porrect with the 3rd joint naked a combination of
generalized characters which would almost allow this species
to be regarded as the ancestor of the whole family. Almost
all other Pyralida have veins 8 and 9 of the fore wing
stalked. From Simaethistis the Pyraustince diverge in two
directions firstly, to forms with porrect triangularly scaled
palpi, the 3rd joint concealed, from low down in which
series originated the Scopariina, with raised tufts of scales
on the fore wing; and, secondly, to forms with upturned
palpi, the 3rd joint long and acuminate. From the lower
Pyraustince, with porrect palpi and the 3rd joint naked,
arose also the other groups of Pyralidce :

The Hydrocampince with vein 10 of the fore wing stalked
with 8 and 9 :

The Pyralina, with vein 7 stalked with 8 and 9, and vein 8
of the hind wing free ; giving rise to (a) the Endotrichince,
with vein 8 of the hind wing anastomosing with 7, from
which arose the Chrysaugina, with the maxillary palpi
absent ; and (b) the Epipaschiince, with raised tufts of scales
on the fore wing and vein 8 of the hind wing either free or
anastomosing with 7, giving rise to the Phytitina, with vein 7
