 brownisli red Inniform spots narrower than m jiqnfi'r, more heavily bordered black, 

 the spots (1 — R' dirty ochraceons, tinged red, their white proximal border heavy, 

 siiining throngh above when the insect is placed between light and eye ; black snb- 

 nuarginal spots linear : cellule 8C- — R' more or less silvery in snbmarginal region : 

 admarginal band of greenish ochraceons liars narrower than in Jupiter. 



?. Similar to S. Snbmarginal and upper four median spots of forewing above 

 larger, median patch R' — R' subquadrate, the following also larger than in i , but 

 separated from patcli M- — SM-. Snbmarginal dot SC— SO' present, but very 



small. llindwing: pale glaucous blue scaling not more extended than in Jupiter 



?, discal pale glaucous blue luunles separate; snbmarginal spots larger than in 

 Jupiter, the upper one rounded, the others linear, those between M' and SM- pale 

 glaucous bine, long, the submedian ones nearly forming one line of T mm. h'ugth ;

admarginal spots complete as in 6, spot R' — M' prolonged along K' to near tip 

 of tail. 



Undertiidc : silvery white scaling much extemled on both wings. Forewing : 



median patch R'' — M' extended to discal line ; submedian bars M'— (SM') nearly 



obliterated. Hindwing: median band not reaching M', ])ortion beyond R" very 



thin : discal spots very pale reddish yellow, the last divided, much shaded with black.

 cJ, ?) and in Rritish Museum (2 ? ?): Bougainvilh^ (1 ? in coll. Ribbe). 



This form is especially interesting for the complete admarginal sjiots of the 

 hindwing above, the last one of which is concolorons with the others, not ochraceons, 

 and for the postdiscal spots M= — SM- of the underside being more or less comi)letely 

 separated from each other, not being fused to form one lunnle. 



Mr. Ribbe compares his new species er/if/ia v/i\\\ Jupilrr instead of attilri, which 

 he does not mention.
