Summary
In this paper,Brachymeria multicolor (Kieff.) and the new speciesB. tibialis, both reared fromAnomis flava f. in Madagascar, are described. The former, still bred from a Pierid, has no economical value, while the latter, which attacks many others Noctuids and Pyralids, seems very effective againstAnomis on cotton.
