The species can be recognised, independently of its coloration, by the 

 angulations of tlie postmedian line. The median line ajjpears variable : in 

 tlie whiter c? it is strongly bulged outwards below middle, while in the ? it 

 is sharply angled ontwards on the submedian fold, nearly straiglit from tlio 

 angle to the costa. 



Rhodomena roseoviridis spec. nov. 



Foreivinij : olive-green : the lines dark brown ; the whole middle third of 

 wing occupied by an irregularly oval bright pink space, edged by the third and 

 fourth lines ; base itself black ; first and second lines broadly blackish on costa 

 and at inner margin, more or less obsolete between ; the third and fourth lines 

 irregularly waved, both swollen at costa ; snbmarginal band waved externally, 

 broad at costa and above middle, just touching a large apical blotch, and with 

 a blotch to hindmargiu at vein 2 ; marginal line black, swollen into triangles 

 at the veins ; fringe dark grey ; the green intervals are centred with darker 

 green. 



IJindwhiy : dark slaty grey ; fringe concolorous. 



Underside blackish grey ; darker towards costa, which is marked by three 

 black blotches in the apical half of wing, the apical large, the middle one 

 ]iroduced as a dark band across wing ; all three preceded by cream-coloured blotches, 

 the outermost one uniting with a blotch along hindmargin below apex. Hindwing 

 with an indistinct paler band before the hindmargin. 



Face pinkish ochreous, with two dark spots above ; vertex dark, fringed with 

 pink scales ; collar faded green ; thorax and patagia yellow-green; palpi, shoalders,

156. Rhopalista dismutata spec. nov. 

 Foreivimj : greyish or ochreous flesh-colour in basal half, shading into dull 

 olive towards hindmargin ; the lines blackish, in places ill-defined and irregular ; 

 four equidistant lines in basal area, the two outer angled in cell, all more or 

 less obsolete below median and qnite obsolete below submedian vein ; the edges 

 of the central fascia consist each of two lines : the two inner widely divergent 

 on costa, where they include a third line, and parallel below middle of cell ; 

 the onter two outcurved round cell and ajiproiiching the inner lines toward 

 inner margin ; these are followed by a dark line forming two large prominent 

 teeth on veins 6 and 4, then incurved and running close and parallel to the 

 other two, separated from them in snbmedian interspace by white or pale 

 scales ; then a dark grey line, similarly angled, but indistinct except in sub- 

 median interspace, where it is black and tliick ; a third similar line, distinct 

 and black, is strongly marked on costa and in submedian interspace, its costal 

 area forming a semicircular mark by its junction with an oblique streak from 

 apex ; snbmarginal line whitish, finely zigzag, and tipped at the angles with
