intervals between the veins, and two very minute clots can be detected between the 

 apical and anal spots ; fringe black ; an orange dot at base and one beyond it below 

 the median. 



HindvAmjs: with basal one-third black, and a black uniformly broad marginal 

 fascia, containing three yellow diamond-shaped spots, one towards apex, the other 

 two below the median ; the inner edge of the marginal fascia on both wings is deeper 

 black, edged by a faintly paler shade before the row of sjjots ; the basal and marginal 

 black areas are united along the costa of each wing, more liroadly in the hindwing 

 than in the forewing. 



Underside the same. Face yellow ; vertex, shoulders, and base of patagia 

 orange ; thora.x and first segment of abdomen black ; rest of alxlomon orange, with 

 broad black dorsal triangles on each segment and a pair of black spots at the sides ; 

 a series of lateral spots, and a double series of spots beneath ; legs with the femora 

 orange spotted with black, tibiae and tarsi black ; tongue and palpi yellow ; tips of 

 palpi and antennae black. 



Expanse of wings : 60 mm.

155. Potera intervacuata sp. nov. 



Foreivings : white, the base black along costa, median and submedian veins ; 

 a strongly curved thick black line at one-fourth, with a more irregular abbreviated 

 curved line inside it ; costa beyond first line hroadbj black, containing a small white 

 s]i0t touching first line, united with a square black cell-spot, from the lower end 

 of which a thick black streak runs horizontally to the hindmargin ; an exterior 

 curved line of contiguous blotches, its outward edge dentated ; hindmargin broadly 

 and irregularly black, thickened at apex, middle, and anal angle. 



Hindwings : the same, with a faint basal line; the postmedian more regular, 

 with a blotch running from it to hindmargin opposite the cell ; margin much 

 narrower than in forewings. 



Underside the same; hindwings with a black subbasal costal blotch. Face 

 and collar pale yellow; front of thorax with a Hack bar ; thorax and abdomen yellow, 

 with black spots. 



Expanse of wings : 50 mm.

156. Bursada bistrigata sp. nov. 



Forewvii/js : dee]) brown-lilack, with two orange patches from the costa; the first 

 small, at one-fourth, oblique and reaching just below the median ; in the d it starts 

 from below the costa; in the ? it is decidedly broader and paler, and starts from the 

 costa; the second patch, also oblique, at two-thirds, somewhat bent, is directed 

 towards the anal angle, but only reaches beyond the median, where it is swollen 

 outwardly towards hindmargin ; this, which is orange in the cj, is yellow in the ?, 

 and twice as large, reaching nearly to the hindmargin ; the costa of forewing is 

 sinuous, being shouldered at the base, the shoulder containing a hyaline blotch, 

 larger than that in B. hyaloplar/a, and present in the ? as well as in the S.
