2. Epistor bathus spec. nov. 



(?. Deeper brown than yonjon and taedium. Abdomen withont the patches 

 of woolly scaling fonnd in those species. Forewing with the fold as narrow as 

 iu E. taer/iiim aiisfralis (Revision p. 407) ; R- not mnch cnrved at base, D^ about 

 one-half of I)^, lower angle of cell obtuse. Upperside : a dark brown shadow along 

 fold, continuons with a large triangular discal. patch, which is mnch larger than 

 in gorgon, extending to hinder angle of wing and gradually shading off in front ; 

 dark brown apical patch broader and shorter than in the allied species, cellnle 

 SC^ — SC° being wider than in the other species ; pale halfmoon-shapcd marginal 

 band narrower than in the species mentioned, its pale proximal border-line continned 

 along edge of wing to anal angle, the latter rather more produced than in the 

 allied species ; five or six dark lines rather distinctly marked in the posterior area 

 of the wing, reappearing at costal margin, second and third lines close together ; 



distal margin angulate at M'. Hindwing less extended brown than in gorgon ; 



distal margin feebly denticulate. 



Underside with two lines on disc of each wing, those of forewing more or 

 less indistinct, less curved than in taediitm ; the first of hindwing touching cell 

 at lower angle, the second less marked, accentuated by vein-dots. 



Sexual organs similar to those of taedium.

3. Nephele discifera f. rattraya nov. 



tS. Hitherto only specimens of this species were known which have a large 

 ochraceous spot in the middle of the hindmargin of the forewing. We have now 

 received a specimen withont that spot. This individual may represent the eastern 

 race of discifera, but for the present we treat it as being an individual (not 

 geograjihical) form of disci/era.

4. Temnora albilinea spec. nov. 



<? ?. Body mummy-brown above, clayish tawny-olive beneath, palpus more 

 creamy below. 



Wings similar in shape to those of T./umosa, broader ; forewing less emarginate 



below apex ; mummy-brown on upperside. Forewing : two very faint brown 



bands in basal half and another beyond middle, separated from one another by 

 faintly grey interspaces, the third band disappearing anteriorly in a brown discal 

 area which is distally sharply limited by a gently curved white line, extending from 

 subcostal fork to R', reaching this vein about 3 mm. from margin ; outside this 

 line two faint brown lines converging with the white line behind ; a brown double 

 line from apex to R', irregular ; a white marginal or submarginal cloud R' — R'. 

 Hindwing without markings, slightly paler towards base. 



Underside clayish tawny-olive. Forewing mummy-brown i'mm base to disc, 



excejit margins ; a pair of faint undulate lines from costa to R^ and a straight 



oblique line from costa near apex to K^ brown. Hindwing with three faint 



curved lines on disc.
