EHOPALOCEItA MALAYANA. 57 



The specimens takeu by Capt. Pinwill iu Malacca, and wliicli were presented by him to 

 the British Museum, are the only examples I have seen from this region. 



3. Ypthima newboldi. (Tab. IV., fig. G J .) 



Yphthiiiia X,-wh„l,li, Distiuit, Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. scr. 5, vol. ix. p. 396 (1882). 



Wings above pale brown. Anterior wings with a large subovate pale fascia, placed transversely on 

 apical half, and on which is a large black ocellated spot, with a yellow margin and with two small bluish 

 talc-like centres ; this spot is placed a little beyond end of cell, its upper margin extending a little above 

 first discoidal ncrvule, and its lower margin reaching the second median ner\-ule. Posterior wings with a 

 broad pale submarginal fascia, on which are three ocellated black spots, with yellow margins and bluish talc- 

 like centres, the first and smallest of which is placed between the second subcostal and discoidal nervules, 

 and the other two, which are largest and placed close together, are situate nearer to the outer margin 

 and between the median nervules. Underside of wings pale greyish, mottled with brown; ocellated spots 

 as above, but posterior wings having two additional smaller spots placed close together near anal angle, 

 and between the third median nervule and the submedian nervm-e ; the smaU spot, as seen above, is much 

 larger beneath. Body and legs more or less coucolorous with wings. 



Exp. wings, 40 millim. 



Hab.— Malay Peninsula ; Province Wellesley (coll. Dist.). 



This species not only differs from Y. iiwthora in having five, and not six, ocellated spots 

 on the under surface of the posterior wings (a possible varietal difference only), and also a paler 

 and more unicolorous hue beneath, l)ut also by the shape of the ocellated spot on anterior 

 wings, \vhich is not only larger, but rounder and less oblong ; the wings are also longer, the 

 costal margin of the posterior wings being distinctly longer than the outer margin. 



I have as yet seen but one specimen, which I captured myself in Province Wellesley.* 



4. Ypthima hubneri. (Tab. VII., tig. 5 2 .) 



Ypthima Hulmm, Kirby, Syn. Cat. Diurn. Lep. p. iJ5, n. IH (1871) ; Suelleu, Tijd. Ent. six. p. 145, u. 11 (1870); 



ibid., XX. p. 66 (1877) ; ibid., xxi. p. 7, u. V.) (1878). 

 Ypthima philumela, Hiibn. (nee, LLuu.), Ziitr. Ex. Schmett. f. 83, 84 (1818); Hewits., Trans. Ent. Soc. ser. 3, 



vol. ii. p. 284, n. 4 (1865) ; Butl., Cat. Satyr, p. 152, n. 18 (1868) ; Trans. Linn. Soc. ser. 2, Zool. vol. i. 



p. 537, u. 1 (1877). 



Male and female. Wings above bright, glossy, smoky ochraceous. Anterior wings with a large, ovate 

 ocellated spot placed a little beyond cell, and situate on the two discoidal and first median nervules ; this 

 spot is dark fuscous, with two central pale bluish white spots, aud outwardly margined with pale ochraceous ; 

 outer dark submarginal aud marginal lines. Posterior wings with two or three prominent submarginal 

 ocellated spots, of which two are always present and placed between the median nervules, the inner one 

 being largest, and the third and smallest (sometimes absent) is situate between the third median nervule 

 and submedian nervure ; these spots are similar in colour to that of the anterior wing, but more rounded, 

 with single pale bluish white central spots, and the area on which they are situate is paler and more or 

 less greyish (the third when present is always more or less imperfect) ; between the subcostal nervules 

 a spot on the under surface is faintly and obscurely visible above. Wings beneath pale greyish, mottled 

 with slender pale fuscous strigai ; anterior wings with the large spot are above, but brighter, and its outer 



* I have named this species after Capt. XewboUl, author of the useful and well-known ' Pohtical and Statistical .\ecount 

 of the British Settlements in the Straits of Malacca.'
