there is no marking at all and sometimes the head also is almost entirely 

 dark brown. Evidently the black of the body as well as that of the head- 

 marking are in an evolutionary state of lessening, which with the one individual 

 is more advanced than in the other, and therefore shows so many differences 

 of all kinds. The pupa is found among some grass-blades spun together. It 

 is small, oblong yellowish, sometimes greenish here and there, with a straight 

 haustellum separated from the body, that does not reach farther than half-way 

 the first abdominal segment. A pupa of the 9/10 of February gave the imago 

 on the 25'*^ and one of the 29'"^ of February on the 12''^ of March. My 

 figure of the larva is more accurate than that of van Deventer ; his figure 

 of the pupa has totally failed. I give here — as also van Deventer does — 

 also difterent figures of the difference in colour of the head.

The Javanese specimens are, as on the figures is to be seen, somewhat 



smaller than the type from the Moluccas.

The larva feeds on the leaf of the kclappa (Cocos Nucifera L.) and on 

 rotan (Calamus spec). It is green, here and there with some yellow marbling, 

 the vas dorsalis shining through as a dark dorsal line, so that its contraction, 

 can distinctly be seen. The light orange testes shine through also. The anal 

 extremity of the body is rounded off and has some stiff white hairs. The 

 head is light brown or clay-coloured, with a black margin and mostly with a 

 marking consisting in a little vertical brown line in the middle, that is divided 

 lower down into two small branches ; between its legs there is still another 

 little vertical line; which marking, however, varies in from and thickness of 

 lines. The larva spins a very tight white cocoon between some parts of a 

 leaf strongly sewed together, wherein it pupates. This pupa surrounded with 

 a white powder, is of a dim yellow ; at the place of each eye it has a brown 

 dot. Its haustellum is straight but not long.
