which extends from below the apex of forewing and widening to the abdominal 

 margin of the hindwing to half-waj'' up above anal angle. Forewing also with 

 clearly-defined basal black-lined marks, their interspaces being pale greyish- 

 brown, beyond which is an outwardly-oblique upper discal pale greyish- 

 brown patch. Hindiving also with basal black-liued indistinct marks. Underside 

 yellowish-ochreous. Both wings with sHghtly-defined slender blackish-brown basal 

 marks. Forewing with a slender blackish lunular submarginal line. Hindwing with 

 a very obscurely-defined pale brownish discal and submarginal slender sinuous fascia. 

 Body and palpi above dark brown, beneath and legs pale yellowish-ochreous ; 

 antennte dark brown above, ochreous beneath. 



Female. Upperside pale purpurescent greyish-brown ; cilia grey. Forewing 

 with basal black-lined marks, slender and obscure ; crossed by an oblique sub- 

 marginal dark brown diffused narrow band, and an inner-discal angulated series of 

 five sullied-white brown-edged spots, of which the two upper are largest and ovate 

 and disposed obliquely-outward, the three lower much smaller, the third being 

 minute, these latter are disposed obliquely-inward ; a small similar white spot also 

 present before the apex, the apical area baitig slightly speckled with bluish-grey 

 scales ; a dusky-brown shade before the upper discal spots. Hindwing with 

 indistinct basal marks ; crossed by a discal dark brown diffused band, and a less-

Expanse, <? 2i^o to 2^q, ? 2i^o to 3,^0 inches. 



Habitat. — Burma ; Tenasserim ; W. Siam. 



Note. — The male type of the Fabrician P. Cocytus, in the Banksian Cabinet in 

 the British Museum, has a grey marginal band — not blue, as erroneously stated by 

 Mr. Butler (Ann. N. H. 1868, p. 71) — which we have, personally, both verified, in 

 comparison with specimens of the same sex of Hewitson's Satropaces. The 

 Fabrician type specimens of male and female Cocytus are undoubtedly the same as 

 those of Satropaces. 



Distribution. — The Fabrician type, both of male and female, is labelled" Siam." 

 The types of Satropaces were, according to Mr. W. S. Atkinson's MS. Notes, taken 

 in " Tenasserim near the frontier of Siam." Mr. Otto Limborg (P. Z. S. 1878, 830) 

 took it at " Meetan, 3000 feet elevation, Upper Tenasserim, in April." Capt. C. T. 

 Bingham obtained it in the Thoungyeen forests in December, and in the Donat 

 Range in January ; subsequently, Capt. Bingham also took it in the " Hills north of
