Hinrhvings : with a snlimarginal curved chaiiilike fascia ; cell-spot less strongl}' 

 marked than in forewings ; some scattered discal and marginal round sj)ots; margin 

 as in forewings. 



Underside duller. Face and vertex yellow ; palpi j-ellow, with the tip 

 blackish ; thorax and abdomen yellow, with black spots. 



Expanse of wings : 46 mm. 



One ? from Sambalun, Lombok, 4000 feet, April 1896 (Frulistorfer). 



Like the two following Javan forms, confliientaria and firanuli/ern, but not 

 to be confounded witli them. 



63. Abraxas confluentaria S2). nov. 



Fore/d/if/s : dull white, with fnscou.s grey markings : costa broadly fuscous 

 grey, including the cell and cell-spot ; a funnel-shaped fascia from before the cell- 

 spot to middle of inner margin, and a broad submarginal streak parallel to hind- 

 margin, consisting of two united rows of confluent spots, whicli narrow off and 

 separate at inner margin; marginal area narrowly fuscous grey, swollen and pro- 

 longed in short irregular streaks along the veins towards the submarginal streak ; 

 fringe grey. 



Hindwings : with a submarginal curved fascia of partially confluent fuscous 

 grey spots ; marginal line narrow, as on forewings, hardly prolonged along veins : 

 cell-si)Ot small. 



Underside the same. Face and vertex yellow ; tliorax and abdomen yellow, with 

 black spots. 



Expanse of wings : 50 mm. 



Two (?c? from Mount Arjuno, Java (W. Doherty). 



In one example the whole marginal area, including the submarginal fascia, is 

 fascous grey, and the funnel-shaped fascia interrupted on the submedian fold, the 

 marginal line of hindwings being likewise more developed. 



Manifestly allied to ^1. (iniinilifem, but fairly distinct; distinguished by the 

 smaller size and the absence of the small granular spots. 



64. Abraxas gramilifera sp. nov. 



Forewings : dull white, with fuscous grey spots ; the costal area broadly fuscous 

 grey throughout : the base of cell and the whole wing below the median and 

 lower radial covered with numerous small fuscous grey round spots, which are 

 irregularly confluent, and between veins 2 and 5 almost wholly so, forming a 

 triangular suftused patch ; traces of two submarginal series of confluent spots, 

 visible chiefly across the pale space below tlie costal streak; a marginal row of 

 confluent spots, preceded by a somewhat interrupted streak of pale ground-colour ; 

 fringe fuscous grey ; cell-spot large, fuscous grey, with deeper centre, followed by 

 a few small spots in the pale horizontal space beyond it. 



Hindwings : with a submarginal band of confluent spots, and a marginal baud 

 as on forewings ; cell-spot large, fuscous grey ; several small round spots scattered 

 irregularly on the disc and between the fasciae. 



Underside the same. Face and vertex yellow ; palpi brown ; thorax, shoulders, 

 patagia, and abdomen vellow, with black spots. 



Expanse of wings : 54 mm.
