mark in the cliscoidal cell of the forewing, and the large patch of 

 black seta3 on the upperside of the hindwing below the costa. 



I take this opportunity to figure on Plate G, Fig. 29, the type 

 male specimen of Parnara wutsonii, mihi, described in this Journal, 

 vol. v, p. 223, n. 19 (1890). 



31. CHAPRA C^RE, n. sp., PI. G, Fig. 33, 6 . 



Habitat : Thaungyin, Burma. 



Expanse : 6 , 1*8 inches. 



Description : Male. Upperside, both icings dark brown, with a 

 slight vinous gloss. Forewing with eight semi-diaphanous pale 

 yellow spots — two placed inwardly obliquely above one another 

 towards the end of the discoidal cell, three minute subapical, three 

 discal increasing, the uppermost a mere dot ; an oblique fine white 

 line across the submedian interspace, this being the typical " male- 

 mark " of the genus. Cilia anteriorly brown, posteriorly becoming 

 pale yellowish-cinereous. Hindwing immaculate. Cilia pale yellow 

 at the anal angle, gradually shading oif into brown towards the apex. 

 Underside, forewing as above, except that the white "male-mark" 

 of the upperside is black. Hindwing unmarked. Head, antenna, 

 and body dark brown. 



There is no species in the genus Chapra with which this can be 

 compared, as it differs widely from all those described. It is, how- 

 ever, the " male-mark" being leftout of consideration, remarkably and 

 startlingly like several species in the genus Pamara. In the forewing 

 it agrees in markings with P. canaraica, Moore, but does not possess 

 the two discal white spots on the underside of the hindwing said to be 

 found in that species. P. austeni, Moore, is similar in the forewing, 

 except that it has two subapical dots only, the cilia also are said to be 

 cinereous-white. The female of C. ccere will probably prove difficult 

 to discriminate, owing to its likeness to females of the genus Pamara. 

 Described from a single example collected by Major C. T. Bing- 

 ham in January, 1891, in the Thaungyin Forests, Burma, and kindly 

 given to me.
