wings with the following imle bhiisli spots :— a small spot between first and second subcostal nervules ; 

 a somewhat larger spot in cell, a little before lower disco-cellular nervule : a similar one between tirst and 

 second median nervules, and an irregular subovate patch between second and third median nervules ; 

 faint indications of a marginal and submarginal series of whitish spots, distinct and prominent at anal 

 angle, again visil)le above lirst median nervule, and totally wanting at apex. Posterior wings beneath with 

 the marginal and submarginal spots as above, and with live small and indistinct s[iGts surrounding apical 

 portion of cell, and situate between the nervules. Head and th(U'ax above black. Head and anterior portion 

 of thorax spotted with white. Abdomen fuscous, spotted with pale bluish lieuealh. Head beneath, 

 sternum, and legs black ; \)i\X-gi, sternum, and extreme base of wings spotted with white. 



.\nterior wings provided with an elongate pseudo scent-gland or brand, situate between third median 

 nervule and submedian uervure. 



Exp. wings 8() millim. 



Hab. — Malay Peninsula; Malacca (coll. Godm. & Salv.). — Sumatra (coll. Oberthiir). 



It is (juite possible that this form may he l)ut an extreme variety of E. cMoe. I have seen 

 hut two examples — one from Malacca, in the collection of Messrs. Godman and Salvin, which 

 is here described and figured ; the other from Sumatra, in the collection of Mon. 01)erthiir, 

 which had been forwarded to Mr. Moore for identihcation, and for which that entomologist had 

 proposed the name which I have used here. 



Note. — In the figure here given (Tab. IV., tig. 1) the pseudo scent-gland or brand on 

 anterior wing has failed to appear in the last chiomatic impression.

Male. Anterior wiugs above dark olivaceous-brown, basal half much darker, with obscure violaceous 

 reflections ; a subapical, arcuated series of five white spots, the upper two divided by the fourth subcostal 

 nervule ; third and largest situated l)eneath fifth subcostal nervule ; fourth and fifth smallest, with the 

 upper discoidal nervule intervening (beneath these are faint indications of a submarginal series of small 

 spots), and a marginal series of small white spots, becoming obsolete towards apex. Posterior wings above 

 olivaceous-brown, with a submarginal and marginal series of small white spots, the submarginal series 

 Hiucli obliterated, but in some specimens distinct and continuous. Laiderside of wings pale olivaceous- 

 brown ; anterior wings with the following bluish white markings on disk : — a small spot between first and 

 second subcostal nervules (sometimes this is accomjjanied by one or two others, as in the female) ; a similar 

 spot in cell, before lower disco-cellular nervule ; a spot between first and second median nervules, and a 

 large in-egularly shaped streak between second and thir<l median nervules ; marginal and submarginal spots 

 as above, but larger, more distinct, and continuous. Posterior wings with a pale discoidal patch near basal 

 costal margin, which is for the most part hidden by inner margin of anterior wings ; spotted as above, but 

 with the submarginal spots distinct and continuous, and having five additional and distinct discal spots, 

 which surround the apical [lortion of cell, (fn some specimens there is a very small but distinct spot in 

 and l)efore end of cell, and sometimes a sixth surrounding spot situated above first subcostal nervule.) 

 Head and thorax above black ; the head and anterior i)ortion of thorax spotted with white. Abdomen 

 fuscous, spotted with pale bluish beneath. Head beneath, sternum, and legs black; palpi, sternum, and 

 extreme base of wings spotted with white.
