Neuration : Primar}' with vein 3. well before the angle, 4 from the angle, 

 5 from the middle of the cell, 6, 7, 8 stalked, 6 from the areole, 9 from 10 

 anastomosing with 8 to forma long areole, 11 from the cell, long. Secondar}' : 

 vein 3 from before the angle, 4 from the angle, 5 from middle of cell, 6 and 7 

 stalked, 8 lying on 7 for one-third ; close to the base of 8 a short sliarp spnr is 

 emitted at right angles to the vein. Costa nearly straight, apex slightly depressed ; 

 termen rounded ; secondary long, rather narrow. 



Type : P. pratti. 



167. Parabasis pratti s])ec. nov. (PI. IV. f. 26). 



3- Head, thorax, and abdomen clear chrome yellow, thorax with a triangle of 

 three black spots at the back ; antennae yellow in black sockets ; palpi black 

 internally, broadly yellow externally ; legs yellow with jet black tarsi. 



Primary pure pale yellow, with a black basal spot and two larger black 

 costal spots near the base, and a snbmarginal row of eight black spots, the first 

 at the apex very small, the second and sixth the largest ; between the two black 

 costal spots the subcostal area is pale suljihur-yellow, a large pale sulphur patch 

 below the cell, a larger one above and beyond, covering the end of the cell ; 

 between this and the inner angle two oblique patches, below which is a broad 

 inner-marginal dash ; above the largest patch at the end of the cell is an oblique 

 stripe from the costa to the oblique patches. All these pale sulphur patches are 

 broadly encircled and separated from each other by a suffusion of brick-red scales. 

 Fringes yellow, interrupted by a small black patch opposite the sixth spot. 

 Secondary yellow, with a small black submarginal sjiot below the apex, and a

Both wings pale ochreous grey. Primary with two irregular dark lines, a 

 dark spot in the cell near the posterior line and a larger one beyond it ; an 

 oblique postmedial line rising in a dark triangular patch on the costa near 

 the apex, followed by a waved row of dark points ; a dark patch below the 

 apex on the termen. Secondary with a darkish irregular line near the base ; 

 an oblique postmedial line followed by a curved row of dark points, from which 

 points arise an evenly serrated line. 



Expanse : 56 to 60 mm.
