Enlygdia gen. no v. 



Forewings : with costa gradually cnrved, and slightly shouldered at base; 

 apex blunt ; hindmargin obliquely curved, faintly jirotuberant at vein 4 ; no 

 fovea. 



lliiulwings : with hindmargin crenulate, the projection at vein 4 more pro- 

 minent than the others. 



Antennae of c? minutely serrate and pubescent ; palpi short, stout ; tongue 

 and frenulum present ; liiudtibiae thickened, with four spurs. 



Nenration : forewings, cell broad, scarcely half as long as wing ; discocellular 

 concave ; first median at four-fifths, second at seven-eighths ; lower radial slightly 

 above middle of discocellular, ujiper from upper angle of cell ; veins 7, S, and 

 stalked, 10 and 11 coin(adeut, approximated at a point to the costal. Hindwings 

 with first subcostal just before end of cell ; medians as in forewings ; no radial. 



Type : FAilygdiu tidzinaiia Oberth. ( Tephrosia). 



05. Potera viduata sp. nov. 



Foreu'ings : white, but this ground-colour much more restricted than in 

 punctifera Wlk., forming a broad curved fascia from inner margin to subcostal 

 vein, its outer edge strongly curved from two-fifths of inner margin, its inner 

 oblique from one-fifth ; in the dark marginal area are three irregular double wliite 

 blotches, two near hindmargin between veins 5 and 7 and 2 and :i, the third smaller 

 beyond cell ; in the dark basal area are five small white spots, one between the 

 snbmcdian and median veins at their rise, one on each side of the median obliquely 

 above it, and two along the costal vein. 



Ilimlicinfis: with the central fascia broader, the basal fifth blackish, the costa 

 only narrowly black ; outer two-fifths occupied by a black fascia, with two white 

 blotches as in forewings, bat more elongated, sometimes with a fine streak towards 

 costa and anal angle. One specimen has a large round black discal spot, which in 

 others becomes a mere speck. 



Underside the same. Head, thorax, and abdomen bhick ; pectus, front of face, 

 collar, and anal segment of abdomen beneath yellowisli. 



Expanse of wings : 44 mm. 



Five 3 6 from Kapaur, Dutch New Guinea, February 1897 (W. Uolierty). 



Subfamily BRACCINAE. 

 60. Bursada albicolor sji. nov. 



A facsimile of B. tiispilata Warr., but with all the yellow patches j)ure white; 

 the basal streak of forewings shorter and more slender. As in that species, the 

 two fasciae vary much in size, those in one example being nearly twice the size 

 of those in the other. 



Expanse of wings : 34 — 39 mm. 



Two ? ? from Kapaur, Dutch New Guinea, from the low country, January 

 1897 (W. Doherty). 



If, as seems possible, D. trispUata, Warr. should prove to be only the ? of 

 B. hasitriya Wlk., these may be merely albino aberrations of the same species.
