1'2 NYMPHALID-E. — NVMPHALIN.E. —EUTHALIA. 



rows of red spots running from below the costal nervure ; the first consists of a 

 spot below the costal ncrvnre, with a black line on each side, and two small 

 spots in the cell, with a sliglitly waved black line on each side ; the second 

 scries is composed of four rather long spots, commencing at about half the 

 length of the costal nervure, which are edged with black on the inside, and tipped 

 with black externally ; the series is continued ])elow In' two blackish rings between 

 the median nervules. The third series (three spots) is sul)marginal, and is 

 marked on the inside with black dots, which form the uppermost of a series of 

 seven ; the last, at the anal angle, forms an oval blotch, slightly constricted in 

 the middle, and marked on the outside by a large red si)ot. 



Body olive-green, palpi beneath, hinder orbits, and tibiie striped with red. 



Femak'. Upperside olive-brown. Anterior wings with five black lines in 

 the cell, the first curved, and with a curved line below, the second nearly 

 straight, the third and fourth curved, and the space between filled up with a 

 broad white bar ; the fourth and fifth united a little above the median nervure, 

 into a V, the outer side of which borders the third of a series of six rather large 

 white spots of various shapes, extending between the subcostal and submediau 

 nervures. Half-way between the three upper spots and the apex is a curved 

 row of four more white spots, smaller and more widely separated than the 

 others, of which the two middle ones are the largest ; the space between the 

 spots of the two series is marked with obsolete dark bands. Just beyond the 

 outer series of spots is a submarginal blackish band, most distinct below, where 

 it terminates at the submedian nervure. Posterior wings with a black dot 

 towards the upper part of the cell, and another outside it, and two black lines, 

 converging below, towards the extremity of the cell ; beyond this is a broad red 

 band between the subcostal and submedian nervures, widest in the middle and 

 edged with an irregular black line on both sides, divided by the nervures; a 

 little nearer the base is a red spot on the costa, bordered with white above and 

 slightly with black on both sides. The lower half of the posterior wings is of a 

 dull olivaceous-green, with a slight jeneous reficction. There is a submarginal 

 row of seven black spots, the three uppermost with red spots bordering them 

 on the outside ; that at the anal angle is longer than the others, and is also 

 bordered outside with a red spot. 



Undekside. Anterior wings light brown, marked as above, but the two 

 curves near the base are reduced to spots, and the spaces between the second 

 and third and fourth and fifth lines are filled up with red. Posterior wings 

 greenish towards the upper part and bluish towards the lower part, the base of
