l-'orewiiifi : dull greenish bnff (possibly failed from grey-greeu) ; iuuer line 

 Iiright sciirlct, sturting from -a small blotch iu cell, forming a long vertical curve 

 to submedian fold, then a short one to submedian vein, wliere it stops ; outer 

 line vertical, Innulate-dentate, starting from vein 6, purple to vein 3, then to inner 

 margin bright scarlet ; followed by a series of four ])nr]ile blotches between tlie 

 veins, the lowest one between veins 'Z and 3 surrounded by scarlet, which colour 

 tills rhc whole anal space and is sejiarated from the outer line by a briglit yellow 

 lunule; a small reddish cell-spot ; fringe green. 



Hhidwing : with base dull pale yellow followed by a broad dull ]]uiple liaiid 

 edged irregularly with scarlet scales, containing a ]iuri>lish linear cell-mark ; outer 

 three-fifths grey-green crossed by a purple and red dentate-lunulate line ; a reddish 

 and yellow streak running along veins 6 and 7, the costa remaining pale green. 



Underside pale greenish, whitish in hindwing and along inner margin of 

 forewing; a broad purjile-red erect streak from anal angle of forewing to vein (i, 

 with traces of a dark line before it ; hindwing with a purplish apical blotch onlv. 



Face and palpi reddish ; vertex and base of antennae white ; thorax and

 34. Anisodes subpallida ab. figurata nov. 



Hitherto all the i S \ have seen of this sijecies, described in Xot. Zool. vii. 

 p. 145, have not differed from the ? ?. The aberration now <'haracterised is marked 

 by the intensification of all the black markings, especially in the hindwing. 



In the forewing only the two subterminal shades are marked by enlarged 

 black sjiots beyond cell and above anal angle : in the hindwing the spots of the 

 basal series are united by a black line preceded by a dark shade ; the median 

 shade just be^-ond the cell-spot is diffusely blackish and obscurely serrate ; the 

 jjostmedian series is represented by a strong black denticulate line, and the two 

 subterminal shades by contiguons large black spots, interrupted, like the onter line, 

 only between veins 2 and 4. 



This difference, however, is confined to the upperside, the under surface being 

 (|uite normal ; the tips of the metathorax are black and the second segment of 

 abdomen bears a black ring ; the dorsal segments are much redder than usual.
