carrying two small black spots at the tornus itself. All the 

 above fasciie are formed, as in Ps. mimica, of two more or less 

 parallel dark lines placed fairly close together, and enclosing a 

 paler area. The only other markings are an irregular brownish 

 area close to the base, between R and Cu, a series of irregular 

 markings along the dorsum, and indications of an extra fascia 

 lying below the apex of the wing, parallel and close to the ternien 

 (as also in Ps. mimica). Hind wing quite differently shaped 

 from that of Ps. mimica, the base being much narrower, the 

 terminal border cut off straight, and the tornus approaching a 

 right angle; hind border or dorsum slightly excavated. Dark 

 spot somewhat larger than is usual in Ps, mimica, less definite in 

 shape, and brownish instead of black. 



Abdomen pale brownish, with darker markings, somewhat 

 narrowed basally (apparently much shrunken), enlarged anally. 

 Appendages (Plate Ixxvii., fig.8) consisting of a pair of superior 

 and a pair of inferior, triangular, valve-like laminae, partly em- 

 bracing the terminal segment, but with their apices not meeting 

 together in the middle line.

 is also a very damaged specimen in the Queensland Museum, 

 Brisbane, from Mount I'ambourine. 



This very delicate and graceful species is easily distinguished 

 from all the known species except Ps. m-imica; the differences 

 which separate it from this latter species have been emphasised 

 in the key and in the description given above.
