10. EUSEMIA SIMPLEX, n. Sp. 



Differs from the four preceding species in having the yellow band of primaries 

 narrow and parallel ; no postmedian yellow spots ; the white discal spots somewhat 

 narrow and elongated ; anal spot of secondaries and bands on body golden-orange. 



Expanse of wings, 2" 7'". 



Canara (Ward). Type, Coll. F. Moore. 



This is decidedly more distinct than the four preceding, all of 

 wliich, however, are doubtless locally constant, and must, therefore, 

 rank as species. 



11. EUSEMIA AEFLICTA, n. Sp. 



Allied to JS. adulatrix, &c., but with the yellow band of primaries more oblique, 

 and forming an unbroken oblong patch, nearly equal in width from end to end ; 

 lower bifid spot rather small ; anal spot of secondaries large, golden-orange ; bands 

 on posterior segments of abdomen golden-orange. 



Expanse of wings, ? <? , 2" 8"'; ? , 2" 1'". 



^? Matheran, Bombay (Dr. Leith), $ Bombay. 



Type, Coll. F. Moore. 



The insect, which appears to me to be a male with the anal Talves 

 closed, is marked as a ? ; it, however, has the broad thorax character- 

 istic of a male insect, and is brighter in colouring than the other 

 example (an undoubted female).
