10 NYlirHALIDiE — MORrHIN^. — TENARIS. 



broad, but not sharply defined ; the lower ocellus is imperfectly double in the 

 specimen figm-ed. 



Hab. Humboldt Bay, New Guinea (Doherty, and Captains Cayley Webster, 

 and Cotton). 



In the Collections of the Hon. W. Eothschild and Mr. Grose Smith. 



This rare species is allied to T. Myo2)s Feld. A closely allied species inhabits Am, in 

 which there is a blue ring in the lower ocellus of the hind wings beneath, in the place of scattered 

 blue dusting. 



Kirsch's description is short, aad not very satisfactory. 



It is i)roposed to figure and describe the female at an early date. 



VII.— TEXAEIS DOHERTYI. i . Figs. 3, 4. 



Tenaris Dohcrtyi, H. Grose Smith, " No^'itates Zoologicte," I, p. 358 

 (April, 1894). 



Exp. 4 inches. 



Male. Upperside. Anterior wings fuscous, paler in the middle, and below 

 the cell to the inner margin. Posterior wings white, broadly bordered with 

 fuscous, which extends from the apex to nearly half way below the large ocellus, 

 which is situated on the disc between the two lowest median nervules, and 

 extends beyond them on each side. The ocellus is broadly black, with a white 

 pupil, and is surrounded with a broad bright fulvous zone, which extends below 

 the ocellus to the outer margin, thence narrowing to the anal angle, the outer 

 margin beyond the zone being nai-rowly brown ; the dark band and apical 

 ocellus on the underside show indistinctly through the wings. 



Underside. Anterior wings, basal and apical third darker fuscous than on 

 the upperside, the middle third sordid white, which commences near the costal 

 margin, a little before its middle, and extends over the outer third of the cell 

 and the centre part of the wings to the anal angle and the inner margin, being 

 deeply indented where it crosses the cell. Posterior wings with the inner half 

 from the middle of the costa to a little above the anal angle dark ferruginous, 

 the outer margin of the dark area, which extends vertically across the wings, 

 being irregularly indented, but well defined ; the outer third, in which is situated 

 a large subapical ocellus, narrows gradually down the wings, and ceases on the 

 margin just before the middle median nervule. The intervening space is 

 brownish white, and extends round a large discal ocellus to the outer margin
