divpi-giii? fmiDel-sliiipwl to the costa iit. oiie-lialf and tliree-fonrtlis ; the foiivtli 

 pair, which is snbmarginal ami wider below, is preceded aud followed by jialer 

 bands containiug a row of faint striae down their centre; the costa is diffnsely 

 whitish grey. 



Ilindwing : similar, but the basal lines clouded. 



Underside duller, more grey ; costal half of forewing to two-thirds shaded with 

 dull brown. 



Head, thorax, and abdomen like wings ; face and palpi dark brown. 



Expanse of wings : 36 mm. 



1 ? from Maymyo, Shan States, June— August 1902 (Hauswell). 



Veins 8, 9 of forewing are stalked, and I have provisionally, therefore, placed 

 the species in lli/polamprus, though it appears somewhat out of place. 



4. Striglina floccosa spec. nov. 



Fori'iring : dull brick-red, tinged along the costa with olive-fuscous, and with 

 the transverse streaks and reticulations of the same colour ; these form many 

 indistinct curved lines parallel to hindmargin, those beyond middle bluntly angled 

 on vein 4, that in tlie middle of wing slightly tliicker and more conspicuous, 

 containing an obscure dark cell-mark ; fringe brick-red, with the tips somewhat 

 darker. 



Jlinthving : very similar; along inner margin the fringe and a bed of hairs to 

 vein 1 flnify pink. 



Underside with basal half of wings pink, outer half fulvous ; on the disco- 

 cellular of forewing a large spot of blackish and grey scales ; the inner margin 

 pink without striae; hindwing with base and inner half of wing covered with fluffy 

 pink hairs. 



Head and shoulders red-brown; thorax and abdomen redder; legs fulvous red, 

 the tarsi brown : forelegs with tibiae and tarsi dark brown, the latter ringed with 

 white, the former with a large flake of snow-white. 



Expanse of wings : 35 mm. 



1 (J from Upper Aroa River, British New Guinea, April 101)3 (Meek). 



This species is nearest superior Butler, which is, however, dull ochreous in 

 colour, and has a distinct pencil of hairs on the hindwing on vein 1. 



•5. Striglina scintillans spec. nov. 



Forciriiiij : bright vermilion red, much brighter than in S. reversa Warr., 

 which otherwise it greatly resembles ; costa narrowly brown, in rrcersa the costal 

 area as far as subcostal vein is dark ; lines and reticulations much as in rnrrsa, 

 but much fainter ; between the veins series of small round yellow spots alternate 

 with the red; in rerersa the whole wing is red ; spots of the marginal line and the 

 transverse reticulations of the snbmarginal and postmedian series studded with 

 bright metallic scales. 



flindiviiig : the same; fringe of inner margin }'ellow, not reddisli. 



Underside red, not pinkish-ochreous, as in ro-ersa. 



Head, thorax, and abdomen vermilion ; abdomen benoatli and legs ycllow- 

 ochreous; forelegs in front, and middle legs externally, pectus, and palpi vermilion. 



Expanse of wings : cJ 34—20 mm.; ?, 30 mm,
