Erycinidia gen. no v. 



S . Ncnration similar to that of ilyporiji^ta ; M' a very little nearer R' than M-. 

 Hindwing triangnlar, being prolonged in the direction of M-, ending in an obliquely 

 rounded lobe. Eye naked. 



Only c? (? of one species known. 



Recalling Lamprolenis G. & S. (1880) by the shape of the hindwing. 



3. Erycinidia gracilis spec. uov. 



c?. Body olive, grey beneath ; legs somewhat clayish ; naked parts of antenna 

 ochreons. 



Wings, uppcrside, olivaceous, bnrnt-umber-brown, hindwing more olive than 



forewing. Forewing with a broad shadowy band beyond middle of a deeper 



brown tint, followed by the vestige of a pale band. Hindwing with an incon- 

 spicuous double admarginal brown line ; a small black ocellus behind M', centred 

 with a white dot and encircled by a pale brown ring ; tail-lobe with some scattered 

 white scales. 



Untlei-Kidc drab. -Forewing more olive than hindwing, a band before apex 



of cell, extending from costal edge to M, bordered with olive, and a band on 

 disc grey, the discal band almost straight proximally, gradnally shading off distally, 

 its inner edge crossing R^ one-third the way from cell to distal margin ; three small 

 ocelli SC^ — W, consisting of a white pnjiil, an olive ring, a clayish grey one, and 

 again an olive one; outside the ocelli au undulating olive submarginal line followed 



by a straight, indistinct, admarginal one. Hindwing irrorated with whitish scales 



from base to discal line ; an olive line from costal margin oblicjuely to near SM-, 

 entering cell jnst proximally of R' and leaving it distally of i)oint of origin of M-, 

 the whitish scales sliglitly condensed near this line ; a second line on disc, parallel 

 with the first, contiguous with ajiex of cell, curved basad at M", bordered with 

 grey on distal side ; a straight row of six small ocelli, in which a white central 

 dot is surrounded by black except in the upper two ; two olive lines between 

 ocelli and edge of wing, parallel to wing-edge, somewhat crenate. 



Length of forewing : 18 to 20 mm. 



A short series oi S S . 



Pieridopsis gen. nov. 



c??. Eye naked. Wings short; neuration essentially as in Ih/pori/sfa, but 

 discoidal cells of both wings much shorter, that of hindwing being shorter than 

 R' ; D- of forewing angulate, R- originating from below this angle ; hindwing 

 triangnlar, being somewhat prolonged in the direction of M-, this vein ending 

 in a short broad lobe, costal margin long. 



Type : P. virgo. 



Allied to Eri/cinklia, but easily distinguished by the short discoidal cell 

 of the hindwing. 



Pieridopsis virgo spec. nov. 



c??. Body olive, hairs on side of meso-metanotum partly white, abdonu'i. 

 beneath white, ]ialjms clothed with a mixture of white and olive scales. 



Wings, aljoi-c, white. Forewing : apici-distal area and costal margin black,
