Iseuration : forewings, cell not half as long as wing ; first median at three- 

 fonrths, second just before lower angle of cell ; radials normal : 7 and 8 stalked:

 and one marginal ; fringe brown, with a white fleck below apex. 



Hindwings : with four rows of spots — antemedian, median, postmedian, and sub- 

 marginal ; hindraargin becoming white ; the fringe white, brown at apex, where 

 there is a single spot of the marginal row of scales. 



Underside brown in forewings ; the costa tinged with bluish white : a median

 interrupted brown fasciae — one median, one postmedian, the third snbmarginal, 

 forming a blotch at apex, and followed at anal angle by a short marginal line. 

 Face brown, with four white spots : vertex brown, with a white spot on each side ;

172. Tasta chalybeata sj). nov. 



Like T. mieaceafa Wlk. from Borneo, but the metallic scales are steel-blue

 wing : in micaeea/a the reverse is the case.

The examples from the Khasia Hills agree with the Celebes form, not with the 

 Bornean.
