Kil. Perixera(?) flavirubra -p. nov. 



6. Forewings: dull yellowish, but so densely dusted and sufiused with brick-red 

 a.s to appear red, the yellowish ground-colour only showing through in patches 

 between the lines ; first line very obscure, marked by black dots on veins ; cell-spot 

 minute, white, with a black edge ; a cloudy straight dark central shade beyond it ; 

 second line marked by a sinuous row of dark dots on veins at five-sixths ; suliinarginal 

 line hardly denoted ; fringe concolorous, with dark dots at ends of veins. 



Hindwinrjs : similar : the cell-spot larger. 



Underside whitish, tinged with red in the forewings. I'alpi white, bright rosy 

 above ; face white, with a rosy bar at top ; antennae, vertex, thorax, and abdomen red. 



The ? is wholly suii'used with red, the yellowish ground-colour being quite 

 obliterated ; all the dark spots more ]irominent ; the submarginal line with a double 

 black blotch on each side of it ojiposite the cell in the forewings, and in the hind- 

 wings with the whole anal angle black. These black markings are, however, most 

 probably, not sexual. 



Expanse of wings : 32 mm. 



One S, one ?, from Cedar Bay, Cooktown, Queen.sland (A. S. IMeek). 



Similar black markings to those occurring in this ? are mentioned by INIeyrick 

 in his description of tlie tj'pe of porphympw, also a ? ; but that insect is pale 

 ochreous, not suflfused with red. 



The hindlegs of the only <^ are wanting, so that I have been obliged to cpiery 

 the genus.
