■centre, at the lower end of tlie cell : fringe in its basal half green, then pearly grey 

 to the apex, jjreceded by a series of very minute white dots at the end of each vein ; 

 siibterminal line indicated by a series of rather larger white spots on the veins. 



liindwings : like forewiugs, but without the snbtermiual row of dots. 



Thorax, abdomen, vertex, and face all green, the last with a minute white dot 

 •on either side at top and bottom; antennae ochreous white. Underside pale glaucous 

 green, silky. 



Expanse of wings : 20 mm. 



One 6 from Snmba, February lyUO (W. Doherty).

Walker, in describing this Celebes species, speaks of the hindmargin of fore- 

 wings as augulated. In three specimens from S. Celebes, collected by W. Doherty 

 in 1891, all at the same time of year, August and September, a 6 aud ? show 

 hardly a trace of a bend in the hindmargin, but the third example, a S , has a very 

 strongly developed angle ; in this instance the marginal line answers Walker's 

 description exactl_y, and the blotch at anal angle is much longer and shallower, with 

 white centre, than in the other two : of these, the S has the marginal line very 

 much reduced, and the blotch at anal angle rounded and black-brown, while the ? 

 has the marginal line wider than in either of the i S, and, like the blotch at anal 

 angle, which is very large, pale brick-red. The insect would seem therefore to be a 

 variable one. In all tlie examples the costal edge of forewings is pure white, with 

 a broader yellowish line beneath it, and this yellow line, not the white costal streak, 

 is speckled with red ; the outer cross line, slightly paler and denticulate, is very 

 obscure, and only visible in one of the S 6- The species is quite distinct from the 

 Indian deci'xata Wlk. 



34. Thalassodes viridicaput sp. nov. 



Distinguislied from <jii<idriiiia Guen. by its much smaller size, and the hardly 

 angulated hindmargin of hindwings ; face and i)alpi pale pink ; vertex green ; costa 

 of forewings and fringes pale yellow. 



Expanse of wings : 20 mm. 



One i from S. ('elebcs. 



3.5. Uliocnemis delicatior sp. nov. 



Forewings : delicate pale green, with the costa rather broadly whitisli : the two 

 transverse lines slender, white, irregular ; the first before one-third, curved and 

 waved ; the second beyond two-thirds, slightly angulated outwards below tlie costa 

 and again above anal angle, where it is followed by a pale brick-red bhitch with two 

 brown dots at its outer edge ; an indistinct waved white snbmarginal line : cell-spot 

 small, dark ; fringe whitish green ; a faint wliitish sntinsion between veins 4 and -j 

 from outer line to hindmargin. 



llimhringx : with a large brown-red curved blotch at apex and a pale jiinkish 

 one at anal angle, the two united by a narrow jiale marginal band, slightly marked 

 with brown above and with a pinkish line down its centre ; some brown dashes 

 along hindmargin ; cell-spot brnwii.
