224. Colpocraspeda elegans spec. dov. 



Forewing: lavender tinged with green ; costa "live at base, white dotted wiih 

 dark green beyond; at one-third a broad olive-green streak inwardly edged with 

 white runs outwards to vein 2, where it is abruptly angled and turns inwards 

 ending at one-third of inner margin in an erect fulvous orange streak, inwardly 

 edged with white; outer line at three-fourths, slightly green and outwardly edged 

 with white, angled on vein 6 and slightly curved to a small fulvous spot at five- 

 sixths of inner margin ; au obscure dark median shade rises from costa midway 

 between the other two lines and reaches inner margin at two-thirds; space on inner 

 margin between inner and outer lines pale ochreoas ; the Bpace between lines above 

 rather deeper lavender than the rest of wing; fringe lavender. 



Hindwing : very pale lavender, with the cell-spot and outer line showing 

 through. 



Underside uniform pale lavender ; hindwing with fulvous cell-spot and faintly 

 marked submarginal line.

225. Phrudophleps violata Bpec. now 



Forewing: pale green with cream-coloured striae, dense and short along costa; 

 base below middle brown, emitting brown streaks along lower half of cell, along 

 snbmedian fold, and along inner margin to outer line, which is followed by a broad 

 brown and fuscous band to above middle ; inner line, starting from a cream-white 

 costal spot, projects strongly in cell and is marked by a snow-white spot before the 

 dark cell-spot, then runs sharply basewards, again projects below median and 

 reaches inner margin at one-fourth, finely white edged with black ; the outer line at 

 two-thirds is curved parallel to outer margin, lnuulate-dentate, finely white with 

 black edges, and formiug a large white lunnle on snbmedian fold ; submarginal line 

 marked by two white spots obliquely placed before apex, then forming au obscurely 

 paler waved line through the brown shade ; white black-edged wedge-shaped 

 marginal spjots between the veins ; fringe green, black-tipped beyond the veins. 



Hindwing : greenish white, with broad olive-green margin with distinct inner 

 edge ; fringe and cell-spot green. 



Underside bright green; lines of forewing shown only along costa, outer line 

 of hindwing clear throughout; black cell-spots on both wings; on forewing a 

 brownish ochreous submarginal spot beyond cell ; inner margins white. 



Palpi white, pale green above ; face and vertex white ; collar and thorax pale 

 green; tips of patagia and the metathoras whitish, with brown scales; metathorax

Superficially greatly resembling the type species viridis, but distinguished by 

 the brown streaks and smaller size; in the hindwing 0, 7, rise from the upper angle 

 of cell, and are not stalked as in viridis. 



The antennae of the S are simply lamellate, somewhat thicker than in the ?.
