8. Phalaenoides vitticoUis Uothsdi. sji. nov. 



cJ. Upperside : both wings black. Forewing with some metallic blue scales in 

 basal half before costal nervure, a lunate mark beyond middle of cell and some short 

 indistinct rays npon veins 4 to 7 also metallic bine ; a creamy white band 

 e.xtends from tlie costal to the submedian vein, sit nate just outside the ajx'x of cell; 

 this baud is broadest at vein 2, having here a breadth (measured along that vein) 

 of 6 mm., while at the subcostal vein it measures a little more than 3 mm. : ujion 

 the subcostal vein between base and band stands a small creamy white spot, and 

 close to the band there are upon that vein some creamy white scales. 



Hindwings with fringe and small marginal spots white; spot lieliind vein 2 

 largest, ill defined ; no marginal spots between costa and vein G. 



Underside as above, more brownish black; band to forewing somewhat wider; 

 small subcostal whitish s])ot absent, and marginal spots to hindwiug larger. 



Antennae longer and stronger than in P. ffhjcinae, almost as thick as in 

 Affarista, but much less clubbed. First joint of jialpi and ventral middle line of 

 second white ; third joint about twice as long as broad. 



Head creamy white, middle of front and occiput behind eyes black. Thorax 

 above with three creamy white stripes ; below, with coxae anil femora, orange. 

 Abdomen black ; anal segment large (as in Imnwtalia Jord.) and orange. Tibiae 

 without tufts of hairs.

Vein 2 of the forewing stands closer to vein 3 than in I'liulaenoides 

 (flycinae Lew. ; the antennae are thicker, the third joint of the palpi is shorter, and 

 the tibiae are without tufts of hairs. In patt(0-n citticoUis resembles somewhat 

 gli/cinae, but is different in the colour of the palpi, thorax (above and below), coxae, 

 and femora ; the band on the forewings is broader and shorter, and the white colour 

 at the margin of the iiindwing is ranch less extended and does nut include black 

 spots. 



'•'. Phalaenoides maculosus li'dthscli. sp. nov. 



6. U jijirrxide: both wings olive mumniy-brown. Forewing with a creamy 

 bulf band outside cell, extending from costal margm, which it nearly reaches, to 

 beyond vein 2, broadest behind (31 mm.), its outer edge indented between veins 5 

 and (i and jiosteriorly rounded, its inner edge with sinus at the bases of veins 3 

 and 4. Outside the band there is a row of minute creamy white spots. A spot 

 within apex of wing (diameter a little more than 1 mm.), fringe at apex, a spot 

 in inner angle, a few scales before it near extremities of veins 2 and 3, a
