XIII.— MYCALESIS BIZONATA. Figs. 4, 6. 



Exp. If inches. 



J\Iiilc. Upperside. Anterior wings with the costa upper part of the cell 

 and outer third of the disc dark brown, the lower part of the cell, the middle and 

 basal two-thirds of the disc bright fulvous ; two black spots, each centred by a 

 white dot, in the dark outer area ; the upper spot is situate towards the apex, and 

 the lower spot in the interspace between the two lower median nervules. 

 Posterior wings with the outer half dark l)rown, shading into pale brown 

 towards the base ; one black si)ot centred by a white dot in the interspace between 

 the two lower median nervules, and an indication of another smaller spot 

 towards the anal angle. 



Underside. Both wings with the basal half pale fulvous brown, each 

 crossed by two irregular rufous brown bars ; the inner bars cross the cells about 

 the middle ; the outer bars are broader and, on the anterior wings, concave with 

 zig-zag markings towards the inner margin ; the areas beyond the outer bars in 

 which the spots are placed are pinkish lilac-brown. On the anterior wings 

 towards the apex are three black spots, the uppermost minute, the two lowest 

 confluent and centred by two white dots ; these are surrounded by a fulvous ring, 

 margined by a pinkish brown ring ; another larger black spot, centred by a white 

 dot, is situate between the two lower median nervules, surrounded by similar 

 rings. 



On the posterior wings, crossing the disc, is a row of five black spots 

 surrounded by similar rings ; the two upper black spots are confluent and equal 

 in size ; the fourth spot is very large, and that nearest the anal angle is the 

 smallest. Beyond the spots on each wing is a submarginal sinuate brown line, 

 the outer margins being rather broadly rufous brown.

On a careful comparison of Mr. Fruhstorfer's description of M. Remulina (Berlin. Eut. 

 Zeitschr., 1897, p. 118) from Celebes with the species figured under that name in the accom- 

 panying Plate, I am unable to accept the identification of the latter with M. Remulina which has 

 been adopted in the collection of the British Museum, with regard to two specimens, identical 

 with mine, from the same locality. I have, therefore, treated it as a distinct species and 

 described it under the name of " Bizouata."
