Smaller ; $ has on upper surface a brown furry patch joining 

 the inner side of the discal dash. Silver marks of under side 

 of secondaries in both sexes small and placed somewhat diff- 

 erently from any of the above forms ; they consist of a 

 chevron-shaped discal spot, an abbreviated mesial bar, 

 formed of confluent spots, with a small isolated spot near its 

 apical end, but not in a line with it, being somewhat interior 

 thereto. 



This may perhaps be a distinct species. 



j;372. RIDINGSII, REAR., (Hesp. R.}, Proc. Ent. Soc., Phil., 

 VI, p. 151, ?, (1866); Kirby, Cat., p. 615, (1871). 



Only known by the unique 9 tv P e formerly in Mus. Eeak. 

 Though of greater size, it approaches Comma somewhat in 

 the markings, especially of under surface; and it may possi- 

 blv prove to be a melanotic aberration of that species. 



It bears also, on both surfaces, more particularly the lower, a 

 striking resemblance to Metea <j\
