is accompanied for its whole length by a white line, which is abont as thick as 

 the red one. This white line, in />. w. weiskei, is either restricted to the apical 

 area or from R' backwards represented by thin bars.

6. Delias alepa spec. nov. 



c?. Speciei D. Immmeri dictae similis, sed limbo nigro alarum anticarnra 

 mnlto augiistiore, area alba paginae inferioris alarum posticarum multo niiuore 

 atqae flavescente. 



Smaller than luimmeri Ribbe (190U), and the apex of the forewing more 

 rounded. The black border of the forewing measures 5 mm. at R', being at this 

 vein only as wide as the interspace which separates it from the apex of the cell, 

 and does not quite extend to the fork of SC and R' ; the border gradually narrows 

 posteriorly, its inner margin from the subcostal fork to the hind angle being first 

 nearly straight and then almost evenly rounded. The border of the hiiidwing 

 is a very little wider than in D. iv. weis/tei with the exception of the anal portion, 

 which is thinner. The black area on the underside of the hiudwing invades 

 the apex of the cell and extends forward bej'ond R^. The white area, which is 

 shaded with buiT excepting its edges, is therefore much smaller than in D.k/immeri ; 

 it has a subovate or subtriangular shape, and reaches from the costal margin 

 across the cell to the median vein, and outwardly to near the tip of R'. The red 

 discal line is thin, and stops short at the white patch, reaching a little beyond 

 R^. The red basal and postcellular spots are as in kummeri.

Also allied to D. dixeiji Kenr. (1909), which, however, has no red spot below 

 the cell of the hindwing beneath. 



b. No red discal line on the underside of the hindwing (Nos. 7 — 27). 



7. Delias eichhomi frater subsp. nov. 



(??. A subsp. eichh. eichhomi dicta alis anticis snbtus macula nigra disco- 

 cellulari plus duplo angustiore facile distinguenda. 



The white area on the upper surface of the forewing is smaller and more 

 diiFuse at the edges than iu D. e. eichhomi, and in one of the <?(? so much 

 suflf'used with black as to be almost entirely suppressed. The black discocellular 

 bar of the underside of the forewing measures only 1 mm. or less in width, and 

 is angulate, being sometimes almost interrupted before R^ (vein 5).

8. Delias leucobalia spec. nov. 



(J?. Alis anticis supra nigris extns albo macnlatis, dimidio basali in ? albo 

 dense nigro suffuso. Posticis albis, late nigro marginatis serie macularum albarum 



ornatis. Subtus anticis a basi fere ad apicem cellulae albis, in S nigro sutl'usis, 



extus dnabus seriebus macularum albarum. Posticis ut in specie D. eichhomi 

 dicta ornatis, maculis flavis saturatioribus. 



A long-winged species, which is larger than B. eichhomi Roths. (1904), and 

 differs also much in the pattern of the forewing.
