 median, the inner arm dark brown, the onter diffuse, corresponding to the darker 

 shade of forewing ; and a submarginal line, less distinct ; a small dark cell-spot ;

 wet season (Ockenden). 



Hindmargin of hindwing bluntly dentate or elbowed in middle. This will 

 distinguish the species from venmta Dogn.; I rather suspect that the ? which 

 Dognin conpled with his c? is really munda. 



327. Mesedra subsequa spec. nov. 



Foirwinq : ochreons, dusted with pale brown and fuscous speckles; the two 

 lines dark leaden grey, of the same character as in the ? of M. confinis, but the 

 first is more sharply angled in cell in front of the black cell-spot which it almost 

 tenches, while in coujiin.-: it is roundly curved well before it ; onter line thick and 

 obliipie from just beyond middle of inner margin into apex, edged inwardly by a 

 fine brown line and somewhat deflected in its course, not simply curved ; cell-spot 

 black ; beyond it slight traces of a rusty median line; fringe ochreons, with minute 

 dark dots beyond veins. 



Hindicing : with a short basal line ; a fine obscure median shade touching the 

 cell-spot ; a straight postmedian grey shade concisely edged internally ; the whole 

 wing with rusty striae; fringe as in forewing. 



Underside pale ochreons, much less speckled than in conjiiiis ; the grey lines

Head, thorax, and abdomen ochreons; vertex whitish; collar brown.

Hindwing with a distinct angle at middle of hindmargin, which separates it at 

 once from the ? of confinis, which it much resembles. 



328. Mesedra violacea spec. nov. 



Fori'witu/ : cream-colonr, tinged with violaceous, with coarse brown speckling; 

 first line at one-third, bent below costa, marked by large brown spots on veins, the 

 shade connecting them violaceous, stronger and darker at costa and inner margin ; 

 outer line from four-fifths of costa, angled outwards on vein 7, then oblique, bluntly 

 bent on submedian fold to two-thirds of inner margin, similarly violaceous brown, 

 and marked by large brown vein-sjiots ; sometimes Innnlate-dentate, and followed 

 by a violaceous shade running into apex, with a slight lustrous Ine between; 

 submarginal line formed by brown vein-spots, those on 1, 2, and 3 being large 

 and conspicuous; cell-sjiot brown-black; fringe brown.
