are two zigzag trausverse lines, not straight as in hicasi, and the spots stand lieliind 

 the line reaching the apex, while in hicasi they stand upon the line.

I name this species after the collector, but hope soon to have the pleasure 

 of naming a more conspicuous insect after him.

4. Pachygonia maxwelli Kothsch. sp. nov. 



This species is very distinct from any of the others of the genus, but stands 

 nearest to P. coffene Wlk. 



Upperside : both pairs of wings longer and narrower than in coffene. The 

 submarginal line of forewings runs from inner angle to vein 4, and is here five 

 millimetres from outer margin ; from vein 4 it runs straight towards the ajiex, where 

 it ends at vein 7 ; while in coffeae it is zigzag, does not form an angle, and is more 

 or less parallel with outer margin. The thi-ee transverse lines between costa and 

 vein 4 run obliquely inwards in maxweUi, while in coffeae they run obliquely 

 outwards. A pale pinkish grey line runs from inner angle to the small black stigma 

 on the discocellulars. Near the liase of inner margin is a large black wedge-shaped 

 patch abruptly terminated at vein 2 ; in coffeae this patch is scarcely darker than 

 rest of wing, and instead of being cut otf by vein 2 it runs up gradually narrowing to 

 the costa. On hindwings the black transverse baud across the yellow disc is wanting, 

 and the yellow area itself reaches to the base ; apex rufous red followed by tilack ; at 

 anal angle are four lines terminated by vein 3 — inner one broadest, pale pink, next 

 blackish, third very narrow, pinkish, fourth grey. 



Markings of underside corresponding to upperside, but much heavier and more 

 distinctly apparent than in coffeae, and ground-colour much redder. 



Head and thorax grey, with a black median line, forked behind ; on each side 

 of thorax is a large black patch edged with white behind. Abdomen grey, variegated 

 with rufous, below almost rufous.

5. Unzela variegata Kothsch. sp. nov. 

 Upperside: forewings differ from U.japix (Cram.) firstly in that the transverse 

 line which separates the area of the basal foiu-th from the dark patch in centre of 

 wing is serpentine, while it is straight in U.japix; then in the basal area itself being 

 in the new species cinnamon-grey, with a longitudinal hxowa streak at inner margin, 

 while in jajn.c it is olive-brown, with a round lavender patch in centre. The central 

 dark patch is much less distinct, and instead of being sharply incised on the outer 

 side is constricted into the shape of an hour-glass. Hindwings in japi.r. are uniform 

 dark brown, with two short pink streaks at the anal angle, while in variegata they
