AVe cite Biiniiiugbausen and Peters under this species, because oninfm teems 

 to us to be the s{)ecies referred to, not friptolemus, which is apparently much rarer 

 in the province of Hio, if it occurs there at all. 



(? ? . Abdominal yellow belts abbreviated, the yellow basal scaling restricted 

 to a transversal dorsal patch ; apical fringes also more or less yellowisli ; sides ot 



tergites almost black as in ilijf'i(sa. Forewing much sjiadcd with greenish yellow; 



silvery mark forked, 3 to 3i mm. long. 



$. Harpe (PI. XLVI. f. 15) much stouter tliaii in triptoU'iHus, sometimes 

 sinuate nearly as in ilijl'nsa. Tenth segment see PI. XLIl. f. 25. Penis-sheath see

Larva (fig. by Peters) assuming various defensive attitudes, imitating a snake ; 

 it throws the head so far back that the underside of the thorax, which is dark like 

 the rest of the under surface, becomes the upper.
