RHOPALOCERA MALAYAN A. 3H3 



with the outer margin, — is widest and elongately produced beyond cell, and is continued through cell to 

 base; this fascia encloses a small ochraceous spot at upper end of cc^ll ; posterior wings above dark 

 chocolate-brown, with a transverse discal ochraceous fascia ; fringe of both wings greyish-ochraceous. 

 Wings beneath with the dark markings more or less obsolete ; anterior wings with the outer margin only 

 dark chocolate-brown towards outer angle, the discal fascia obsolete, represented by a dark disco-cellular 

 spot at end of cell, the inner margin and basal area also of the same colour ; posterior wings much paler 

 than above, the discal fascia more or less margined with dark spots. Body above dark cbocolatc-browii, 

 beneath with legs more or less dark greyish-ochraceous. 



Exp. wings, 24 to 27 millim. 



Hab.— Ceylon (Thwaites— coll. Dist.).— Malay Peninsula; Singapore (coll. Stand.).— Java (Ilorsf.). 



This is the species which stands in HorslicM and Moore's Catalogue under the MJS. name 

 of Paiiiphila )ianumta, as I have satisfied niyseU' by a carelul comparison with the si)eciinen 

 tlms named in the Horsfield collection. It has since been described under the name of 

 Padraona (johidcs by Mr. Moore. My Ceylonese specimens are identical with the Singa[»ore 

 example here figured, which belongs to the collection of Dr. Staudingev. 



In Ceylon, according to Mr. Mackwood, this species " is widely distributeth Sea coast up 

 to 5000 feet. Generally January to March."*

 Padraona iinendidcs, Moore, Lep. Ceyl. vol. i. p. 171 t. 71, f. 5, 5« (1881). 



Wrings above dark ochraceous ; anterior wings with the outer margin broadly dark chocolate-brown, 

 and with an oblique discal fascia of the same colour, commencing at costa, deflected outwardly at end of 

 cell — sometimes connected with outer margin — and continued broadly beneath cell to base ; posterior wings 

 dark chocolate-brown, with a transverse discal fascia, a spot in cell and a subcostal spot dark ochraceous ; 

 fringe of both wings greyish-ochraceous. Wings beneath as above, but much paler. Body above dark 

 chocolate-brown, beneath with legs more or less greyish-ochraceous. 



Exp. wings, 20 to 25 millim. 



Hab.— Ceylon (Thwaites— coll. Dist.).— Andaman Islands ; Port Blair (coll. Moore & Calc. .Mus.).— 

 Malay Peninsula ; Perak (Townsend— coll. Godm. & Salv.) ; Malacca (coll. Stand. ; Pinwill— Brit. Mus. ; 

 Biggs — coll. Dist.); Singapore (Kerr — coll. Dist.).— Java ; Bantam (coll. Dist.). 



This seems a widely distributed species, and from T. (joloidcs may be readily distinguished 

 by the very different markings of the under surface of the wings.
