costal margin, except at apex, enter half of cell, two small j)atclie.s between R' and 

 M', orange ochraceous, these patches all fused together ; an indistinct patch between 

 M' and M-, another, rather large one, behind M-, stand separate. 



i'lulersir/e black, not glossy. Forewing : orange ochraceons from base to 



beyond M^ costal edge black, M not black, vestiges of two yellow patches between 



11^ and M". Hindwing : greater part orange ochraceous, the black colour reduced 



to the abdominal and outer margins, yellow area limited posteriorly by SM^ but 

 there are some yellow scales near anal angle, and SJF is also yellow, black ontcr 

 marginal band dilated between C and I{-, here about 5 mm. broad, only H mm. 

 wide between R' and M=, slightly dentate behind M' and M". SC and SC^ of fore- 

 wing close together, SO' absent, SC and SC stalked together, R^ and R^ on a short 

 stalk, or from a point ; R' of hindwing present, originating rather close to SCI 



Length of forewing : t? , 22 mm.

IT. Doclea fumigata Rothsch., sp. nov. 



<J Body aboce black, thorax and antennae with purple gloss ; collar, neck, and 

 sides of abdomen yellow, underside of abdomen and legs fuscous, the latter purplish 

 in side-light (breast apparently yellow laterally, but too much denuded of scaling to 

 allow a determination of the colour). 



Wings aboce brownish black, semidiaphanous, especially the hindwing, 

 iridescent ; forewing reddish purple in side-light with vestiges of three white 

 spots, one in upper angle of cell, and two on disc between R' and Ml 



Underside somewhat paler than upperside, both wings with ochraceons scales 

 in cell, which, however, do not form distinct patches ; dirty white spots of forewing 

 as above, but somewhat larger. 



Nenration as in the species of Doclea from the Sulla Islands, figured in 

 Swinhoe, Cat. Lep. Het. Oxford I. p. 60. t. 2. f. 10 (1892) under the name of 

 " B. syntomoides Walker," but SC^ of forewing closer to stalk of SC than to SC. 



Length of forewing : c?, 12i mm.

18. Pintia celebensis Rothsch., sp. nov. 



S. Head, thorax, and shaft of antennae bluish green, metallic, abdomen 

 purplish black, edges of segments bluish green ; face, breast, abdomen and legs 

 bnfSsh cream-colour, sides of breast and upperside of tibiae partly metallic 

 blue-green. 



Wings ahoce blackish brown, purplish in side-light. Forewing : a creamy 



buff band between C and M' crossing apex of cell, oblique to costal margin, at right- 

 angles to distal margin, which the band, however, does not reach, consisting of two 

 somewhat rounded patches which touch each other at R^ the band thus resembling 



the number 8. Hindwing: veins sliglitly darker than ground of wing, indications 



of bnflish patches on disc liefore apex of cfll and between li' and M'. 



Undersidt: blackish brown. Forewing : costal edge greenish blue with a 



long creamy streak in basal half, a streak in cell and a broader behind cell also cream- 

 colour, ill-defined, band as above, a little wider, more yellow, with an additional.
