114 AV. J. HOLLAND. 



W. L. Distant, who agreed with me at the time in my judgment as 



to its generic position. Being of the same way of thinls;ing still, I 



propose the name Enplmam.hna for a genus of which this insect shall 



be the tvpe.* 



Genus LETHE Hiihii. 



9. lietlie EuB'opa Fabr., Syst. Eut. p. 500, No. 247 ; Distant, Rhopal. Ma- 

 layana, p. 43, PI. V, figs. 5 and 6. 



This well known species seems to be exceedingly abundant in 

 Hainan. Numerous specimens, mostly in a- worn condition, S % and 



9 9. 



10. L,etlie Dyrta Feld., Novara Eeise, Lep. Ill, p. 498, n. 862, t. 68, fig. 4-5. 



(1867.) 



A local variety, having the anterior wings somewhat strongly pro- 

 duced at the apex. 



Genus IVEOPE Butl. 

 Blanaida Kirby. 



11. Xeope .^Iiiirlieadii Feld., Wien. Eut. Mon. vi, p. 2S. 



I have a good series of the males and females of this species, re- 

 vealing the fact that there is considerable variation in the number 

 and distinctness of the ocelli upon the upper surface of the wings. 

 One female agrees with Felder's description in having three ocelli on 

 the upper surface of the anteriors and two white costal spots. Most 

 of the females have four well marked ocelli on the upper surface of 

 the anteriors. One female has six ocelli on the under surface of the 

 left anterior wing, two of them minute; and four on the right ante- 

 rior wing. The same female has six ocelli visible on the upper sur- 

 face of the posteiiors. Most of the females and all the males in my 

 possession display only four ocelli (jn the upper surface of the poste- 

 riors. The normal number of ocelli on the lower side of the poste- 

 riors is eight. 



The species appears to be common in Hainan. 



Genus IHEL,AMITIS Fabr. 



12. Melaiiitis Isnifnie Cram. ]Moore, Lep. Ceyluu i, p. 14, pl. x, fig. 2. 

 a-b. Distant, Rhop. Malay, p. 42, pl. iv, figs. 9, 11 and 12. 



The collection contains several typical specimens and one of the 

 pale ochraceous variety figured by Distant Pl. IV, fig. 11. The 

 specimens are all in very poor condition, being flown and rubbed, 

 indicating that in January the brood in Hainan had already nearly 

 passed away.

 Zethes I (liademoides Moore, to the genus Anatlebis ButL
