( 3 ) 



bright scarlet ; thorax and abdomen like wings ; the shoulders and base of patagia 

 pinkish white. 



Expanse of wings : 48 mm. 



One ? from Ron Island, July 18i»T (Doherty). 



The apex of forewings bluntly ronnded and but slightly produced, the hind- 

 margin only faintly indented below it, then curved. 



5. Cyclura confiisata sp. nov. 



Forewings : greyish liver-colour, tinged with glossy lilac ; the costal area 

 paler ; the whole wing crossed by numerous irregularly waved blackish lines, 

 arranged in pairs and forming indistinct fasciae ; tawny patches beyond and below 

 the end of cell, and above anal angle ; fringe brown-black. 



lUndwings: similar; the whole of the marginal apical area tawny, with the 

 black lines thickened. 



Underside ferruginous, mixed with blackish grey; a thick postmediau blackish 

 shade on both wings. Head, thorax, and abdomen like wings. 



Expanse of wings : 39 mm. 



One ? from Laiwui, Obi, September 1807 (Doherty). 



The neuration is unusual and considerably different from that of the tj-pical 

 species ; vein 6 is shortly stalked with 7 ; 8, 9, 10 are stalked, anastomosing 

 shortly with 11 near origin, and 8 anastomosing shortly with 7 near apex. 



(3. Cyclura inconspicua sp. nov. 



Forewings : dull lilac-grey, speckled with fuscous and black ; a slight brownish 

 suffusion near base, and a brownish median shade, swelling out at end of cell and 

 embracing the white cell-spot, then obliijue and narrowed to inner margin before 

 middle ; a line of brown submarginal spots, that at anal angle conspicuous ; fringe 

 rather darker. 



Uindwinys : the same, with only a faint brown cloud in centre ; inner margin 

 spotted with black. 



Underside pale ochreous grey ; the forewings with an oblicjnc black streak 

 from three-fourths of inner margin towards apex, before which it becomes obsolete, 

 and is followed by many coarse black sjiots ; hindwings with a dark blotch at costa 

 only. Face brown ; thorax like wings ; abdomen paler. 



Expanse of wings : 24 mm. 



One ? from St. Aiguan, November lt>97 (Meek). 



Differs from the tyjje of the genus in neuration ; In and 11 are long-stalked ; 

 6 short-stalked with 7 and .s ; 9 absent (? coincident with 10). 



7. Oreta obtusa Wlk. 



The type of this species in the British Museum is without antennae ; but the 

 oblique line on the forewings is straight, not curved as in catama Moore, and the 

 underside of forewings is almost wholly brownish red ; in vatama, on the contrary, 

 the yellow and red tints of the upperside are even more strongly contrasted below 

 than above ; the autennal serrations in tatama are distinctly separate ; in obtus'i 

 coalescent ; so the two species must be kept apart. Oreta obliquilinca Hmjjsn. 

 are merely smaller and less distinctly marked specimens oi obtusa Wlk., with which 

 they agree on the underside.
