on the npperside, the white band being more restricted than in TT^. ribbei, and its 

 outer edge on the posterior wings more sinuate ; the subcostal bine band and outer- 

 marginal row of blue spots as in that species, with an additional broad streak of blue 

 scales extending along the middle of the cell. Posterior wings with the basal black 

 band bordered with blue, as in W. ribbei, but broader and more sinuate outwardly; 

 the outer half of the wings is brownish black, crossed by two longitudinal broad 

 metallic bauds, which converge but do not form a junction at either end ; the inner 

 blue band is bordered outwardly by a narrow row of brownish white scales, and the 

 submarginal band is divided into spots by the black veins. Cilia on both wings 

 brownish white. Antennae black. Head, thorax, and abdomen brown, the last 

 being white beneath. 



Expanse of wings : 1 J inches. 



Ilab. Kapaur. 



Allied to W. ribbei, but browner, rather smaller, and the wings rather narrower. 



5. Thysonotis albula sp. nov. 



Male. — Upperside: both wings brownish black, crossed by a common very 

 broad white baud. On the anterior wings the white area does not quite reach the 

 costal margin, where it is narrowest ; thence, widening rapidly to a little beyond the 

 end of the cell, it extends transversely to the inner margin ; the base is rather 

 broadly brownish black. On the posterior wings the white area extends over the 

 inner three-fourths, except at the base, which is narrowly brownish black. In the 

 dark area of the outer fourth towards tbe anal angle are three submarginal metallic 

 blue lunules, crowning black spots ; a short black tail. 



Underside : as above, but on the anterior wings is a marginal row of pale 

 brown lunules, followed, internally, by a darker obscure band. In the dark area 

 of the posterior wings is a submarginal row of conical black spots, which are crowned 

 with metallic blue lunules ; a row of white lines on the margin, at the base of the 

 spots, between the veins ; there is an indistinct sinuate pale line above the lunules. 



Expanse of wings : 1 inch. 



Hab. Kapaur. 



Nearest to T. mindarus Feld., but the wings are comparatively rounder; it is 

 also smaller than that species.
