wings with a spot in the cell and a row of five sjwts beyond it, all smaller than 

 in S. treitschkei, be^'ond which on each side of the discoidal nervule are two other 

 small spots. 



Female. — Upijerside resembles that sex of S. treitachkei, but on the anterior 

 wings near the apex are two white spots of considerable size, the upi>eruiost the 

 larger, placed obliquely on each side of the upper discoidal nerviUe. On the posterior 

 wings the row of sjxits outside the cell on the underside is represented, the three 

 ujiperniost being indistinct, the two lower by two white spots. Outside this row, 

 about halfway between the cell and the outer margin, is another row of seven spots, 

 the three uppermost, between the costal nervure and the upper median nervule, large 

 and oval, the four lowest, in pairs, are almost linear, and are situate between the 

 middle and lowest median nervules, and between the last named and the submedian 

 nervure respectively. 



Underside : with spots as on the upperside, and on the posterior wings there 

 is also an additional spot inside the cell. 



Hxpanse of wings : 3J inches. 



Hah. Humboldt Bay and Biak. 



Very near S. treitschkei, and a*! \ariable as that species. The absence of the 

 grey sti-eak below the cell of the male, and the additional outer row of spots across the 

 disc of the posterior wings, which is more or less uniformly represented on each side of 

 both sexes, has induced me with reluctance to describe it as distinct. The sul)apical 

 white spots on the anterior wings of the typical female are not represented in any of 

 the other fe^nales. A series of three males and four females comes from Humboldt 

 Bav ; a male and female from Biak are smaller and browner, and on the m,ale there 

 is an indication of the grey streak below the cell, which is entirely alisent in the 

 rmdea from Humlioldt 15ay. 



71. Calliploea dudgeonis sp. nov. 



IM.ALF.. — Upperside resembles C. saundersi Feld., but the wings are shorter^ 

 broader and paler towards the outer margins and more pinkish violaceous. On tlie 

 anterior wings the spots in the submarginal row which crosses the disc are more 

 pinkish violaceous and ai'e little suffused or tinged with white. 



Underside less pinkish brown than in that species. On the anterior wings 

 between the two lowest median nervules near the median ner\Tire is a conical white 

 spot, and towai'ds the margin there are two minute spots between the discoidal 

 nervules. On the posterior wings is a submarginal row of four small spots situate 

 between the costa and the upper median nervule. 



Female. — Upperside resembles C. kirschi Moore, but is darker towards the base 

 with the outer third pale pinkish grey, in which the submarginal rows of spots 

 on both wings are situate. Posterior wings with the submarginal row of four or five 

 white sjxits gradually becoming obsolete towards the anal angle. 



Underside: both wings paler than above, gradually shading on the outer third 

 into pale greyish brown tinged with pink in which are situate the submarginal 

 rows of white spots; those towards the anal angle of the posterior wings l)ecoming 

 obsolete. On the anterior wings is a conical white spot in the same situation as 

 in the male. 



Expanse of wings : 2i inches. 



Three males and four feiiiales. Some of the females are darker towards the 

 outer margins than in the type specimen.
