34- LJuly, 



Crastia Core, Cram., very common. March to October. Heavy, lazy flight. 

 Frequents the shade of Banian trees, &c. Very fond of settling on damp ground. 

 Frequently taken in coitu. 



\^Isamia Rothnei/i, Moore (n. sp.'), male. Upper-side olive-brown; basal area 

 darkest : fore-wing with a sub-marginal row of small whitish spots, and a marginal 

 row of smaller spots, both rows decreasing in size towards the costa ; sericeous streak 

 short and broad : hind-wing with a pale flesh-coloured discoidal patch ; a sub- 

 marginal row of oval, and a marginal row of smaller, whitish spots. Expanse, 3^ 

 inches. 



In colour and pattern of markings, this interesting new species resembles 

 the very common C. Core, for which insect Mr. Eothney mistook it. One specimen 

 only occurs in this collection, and it is the only example known to me. Its nearest 

 ally is a Ceylon species (J. Slnhala). — -F. Moore.]
