Expanse of wings : 40 — 44 mm. 



A pair from 8outh Java, 1500 feet, 1891 (Fnilistorfer). 



Kelated to G. niveostriga Warr., but larger and much darker. Of tlie two 

 examples recorded the } is the smaller. 



191. Gubaria niveostriga sp. nov. 



cj. Forewinrja : purjjlish grey, tinged with fuscous; a snow-white central fascia 

 narrowing towards inner margin, with the edges quite straight, the co.stal end 

 narrowly fuscous with a few scattered striae below; the discal dot black; outer line 

 thick, black, angled below costa, and forming, below the median, the outer edge of the 

 white fascia, followed by a thick dark fuscous cloud ; a darker sjiot on costa beyond 

 it, followed by a small white spot towards apex below costa ; fringe white at apex and 

 below middle, the rest fuscous. 



Hindwings : with the central fascia narrowing to a point before reaching inner 

 margin; the black outer line which bounds it is followed by black blotches mixed 

 with yellowish ochreous scales ; a white blotch, varying in size, on hindmargin below 

 the middle, the purplish fringe being white beyond it. 



Underside of both wings with basal area yellow, edged by a dark brown line, 

 which represents the inner edge of the white central fascia ; outer area dark fuscous, 

 with the small subapical spot of forewings and the marginal spot of hindwings white. 

 Head, thorax, and base of abdomen purplish fuscous ; anal half of abdomen with the 

 sides, and all the underside and legs yellow. 



Expanse of wings : 40 mm. 



Three J c? from Dili, Timor, May 1892, collected by Uoherty ; and two from 

 Oinainisa, Dutch Timor. 



192. Gubaria amplata sp. nov. 



The forewings above are like those of niveostriga Warr., but in the hindwings 

 the dark basal area barely reaches to half the costal and inner margins, and in con- 

 sequence the central white band, instead of being narrowed to a point at two-thirds 

 from the costa, as in niveostriga, becomes curved and very much wider than that of 

 the forewings, while the marginal white blotch is much increased in size. On the 

 underside the dark basal areas of both wings are hardly tinged with yellow, and the 

 abdomen above is fuscous to the tip. The cell-spot of the hindwings is distinct, lying 

 in the white fascia. 



One 3 from Dili. 



193. Luxiaria calida sp. nov. 



Forewings: brownish ochreous, dusted with dark atoms; a dark cloudy cell-six)t, 

 through which a faint curved darker first line can be traced ; exterior line slightly 

 sinuous, marked by dark dots on veins; preceded by a paler ochreous fascia, and 

 followed by a fascia of the ground-colour, of which the outer edge is dentate, and 

 bounded by the obscure submarginal line, the marginal space again being paler 

 ochreous ; a row of dark marginal spots ; fringe paler. 



Jlhulnijigs: like forewings, but the outer third darker than the basal area, and 

 with traces of a dark central line ; hindmargin strongly dentate.
