Mr. E. Doubleday on new species of the genus Gynautocera. 75 



cond discoidal and the third median ncrvules, a double series in 

 the interstice between the second and third median nervule, the 

 upper consisting of five^ the lower of four rounded spots, and 

 between these near the cell a solitary spot ; in the next interstice 

 a series of five and another of three spots, followed by two very 

 minute ones near the margin ; in the interstice above the sub- 

 median nervure a series of fifteen spots, the first round, as are 

 also the six outer ones, the last of all very minute ; a rounded 

 spot at the origin of the first median nervule ; in the interstice 

 below the submedian nervure and along the inner margin two 

 other series of spots, the upper composed of fifteen, the lower of 

 ten, the five outer of the first and four outer of the inner series 

 rounded. The posterior wings have two series of suboval spots 

 in the cell, the last but one of the inner series being small and 

 placed a little out of the straight line. 



Head, thorax and abdomen black, spotted with white. An- 

 tennae black.

The only specimen I have ever seen of this curious species is 

 the one from which the above description has been taken : un- 

 fortunately the posterior wings are much injured.

Anterior wings elongate, trigonate, black, a minute spot near 

 the end of the cell, five rather larger oval ones beyond the cell 

 and two near the anal angle, pale, subdiaphanous. Posterior 

 wings rich deep blue, with a narrow black border. 



Below, the anterior vdngs are bright blue with the apex fuscous, 

 the markings of the upper surface reproduced more clearly, and 

 besides there is a yellow vitta in the cell at the base, an irregular 

 spot in the cell, and an indistinct cloud below it of the same 

 colour. Posterior wings blue, with a black border, three yellow 

 vittse at the base, an irregular yellow spot in the cell, between 

 the cell and the nearest vitta two spots of the same colour, the 

 first small, the second large, oval ; on the anterior margin near 

 the outer angle a large white spot, preceded by a black cloud and 

 some white atoms ; about the middle of the outer margin two 

 white spots, the inner preceded by a black ocellus pupiled with 

 white. 



Head and thorax black above, yellow below. Antennse blue. 



Abdomen blue above, yellow below.
