sh'juld be placed on it. The late Mr. de Xiceville, to %vliom 

 specimens had been sent, doubtfully determined it as K. noreia. 

 Lyi. conjuufjens is certainly the same species as this; so also is 

 the species ticketed Lye. lulu in the Miskin collection, which is 

 not the Lye. ( = Zi\era) lulu of Mathew.

I think there are only three specimens of this species known. 

 I have seen the type in the Queensland Museum, but have 

 nut been able to examine it structurally. It is certainly very 

 distinct, and I should say rather more like X. dahiosa than 

 X. hiocellata. It differs from the latter in having a spot in cell 

 of forewing on underside. As to its correct generic position, 

 I have placed it here because that was the genus assigned to 

 the specimen sent to Mr. de Xiceville. However, my opinion 

 is that Una, de Xicev., will be its correct position. I should 

 not be at all surprised to find that F. caJiginosa, Druce, the 

 type of Frosoto^s is synonymous witli the species under con- 

 sideration.
