Female. — On the uppei-side both wings are more fuliginous brown and less 

 rufous than in the same sex of M . fxdviana. On the anterior wings the space inside 

 the vertical line is very fuliginous ; the spots are as in the male, with the addition of 

 a small black sjiot centred with a white dot on each side of the subajiical spot. On 

 the posterior wings is a row of six ocelli beyond the middle; the fir.st is indistinct 

 and about equal in size to the fifth spot ; the second is small, the third and 

 fourth graduallv becoming larger, the fifth the largest, and the sixth the size of 

 the third. 



Underside: on the anterior wings the inner two-thirds are fuliginous, bordered 

 with a rufous dark line; a siuuate dark streak crosses the cell. Beyond the rufous 

 line is a broad pale biscuit coloured space, in which are situate the row of .spots, as in 

 the male. Bevond this jjale space to the outer margin the wings are again fuliginous, 

 bordered internally with a narrow sinnate line, and traversed before the outer margin 

 by another narrow line. The posterior wings are similar, with the spots as on the 

 upperside. Before the middle is a narrow sinnate dark line from the costa, crossing 

 the cell and a little beyond it. 



Expanse of wings : male, If inch ; female, 1|. 



Nearest to M. fidvuind.. hut quite distinct. 



147. Mycalesis shiva Boisd. 

 Two 'ijudes from Roon and Salawati. 



148. Mycalesis manipa I'oImI. 



Two indies. I cannot separate this from M. ddidis Hew. J'otli species are, 

 in my opinion, identical with M. sinus Fabr. 



149. Mycalesis lorna sp. nov. 



Male. — Upperside dififers from M. shim in not having a sniiapical spot on 

 the anterior wings, and on the posterior wings in having a row of five spots 

 across the disc, the first small, the second, third, and fourth increasing in size, 

 the fourth being the largest, the fifth being the same size as the .second ; all 

 the spots are surrounded by a briglit fulvou* zone. 



Underside : both wings more rufous than in M. shiva. There are five spots 

 in the discal row of spots on the anterior wings, the second and third confluent, 

 all the spots being situate in a zone of fulvous rings which are confluent with 

 each other. On the j)osterior wings in the discal row of sjiots the second spot 

 is less out of line, and the third and fourth spots are larger than in M. shiva, 

 the pale space in which they are situate being narrower and straighter, and the 

 fulvous zones round them brighter. 



Vv.ilALV..— Uppersidr : both wings ])aler tawny brown than in .1/. shivii. wifli 

 a broad, rather fuliginous white band extending across the disc and on each side 

 of the discal spot and a little below it, where it shades into the ground colour. 

 Posterior wings with a discal row of five spots (in one instance six spots), the 

 first small, the second, third, and fourth increasing in size and situate under each 

 other, not out of line as in the female of M. shiva.
