rior angle ; hind-wing with the anterior base brownish greenish- 

 white, also with two white spots near anterior angle. Under-side : 

 fore-wing with a broad irregular fascia from middle of costal margin 

 to posterior angle ; anterior angle chrome-yellow, with some white 

 dividing the two colours ; basal half white, tinged with straw-yellow 

 along discoidal cell ; hind-wing chrome-yellow, and minutely irro- 

 rated with brown ; anterior half of discoidal cell and space between 

 each veinlet near outer margin white, also a dark brown dot on disco- 

 cellular veinlet. Wings shaped as in P. Paulina. Expanse of wings 

 3 inches. 



Hab. Darjeeling. In Mus. East India Company. 



The nearest ally of P. Indra appears to be P. LalagCy E. Double- 

 day, Diurnal Lep. t, Q. L 5, also from N. India. 



.5. PiERis DuRVASA, Moorc. 



Male. — Upper-side white ; fore-wing from middle of costal margin, 

 curving transversely, apically, and scolloped to near end of outer 

 margin, black, and having near the apex some white marks, gene- 

 rally three, the outer ones being sometimes indistinct ; base of costal 

 margin and body greenish ; on the middle of disco-cellular veinlets 

 is a round black spot, and another more quadrate spot between the 

 first and second median veinlets, the latter slightly touching at the 

 angle the scolloped black outer margin. 



Female. — Black colour broader, the quadrate spot larger and 

 broadly confluent at the angle with the outer margin, thus forming a 

 white spot on middle of outer margin ; hind- wings of female with a 

 marginal row of blackish spots, the extreme margin and anal angle 

 being yellowish-white. Under-side : apex of fore-wing pale yellow, 

 the black colour forming only a curved transverse bar, besides the 

 two black spots ; hind-wings wholly pale yellow, and having a small 

 disco-cellular black spot ; body yellowish. 



Expanse of wings 2i to Sf inches. 



Hab. Darjeeling, Assam. In Mus. East India Company. 



The form of the wings of Pieris Burvasa is the same as in P. 

 Paulina and P. Pandione. 



6. Papilio Janaka, Moore, n. sp. 



Upper-side black ; hind-wing with a white patch on the disc, 

 which is divided by three of the veinlets, thus forming four separate 

 patches, the outer one on each side being the shortest, and the two 

 nearest the abdominal margin being tinged with red ; three submar- 

 ginal and three marginal lunules and circular mark at anal angle red; 

 tail with two red spots. Under-side black ; fore-wing with the base 

 red ; hind-wing with patch on the disc as on upper-side, but the por- 

 tion nearest abdominal margin nearly covered with red, which colour 

 is continued upwards and downwards, occupying the base of the wing 

 and the whole space between the third median veinlet and submedian 

 vein ; lunules as above, but larger, and a fourth submarginal one 

 appears between the discoidal and first median veinlets ; tail spotted
