 wingj limited externally by a very irregular dark brown line, 

 followed by a white line ; discocellulars dark brown ; apical

No.nrer to C. fervu-guta than to any other species known to 

 me; its general aspect is pa,le greyish or silvery-brown, with

■^riie present example agrees closely with Felder's figure, which 

 was by no means the case Avith those in the collections formed 

 by Dr. Hector and Mr. Enys, the latter probably represent a 

 distinct species, but the example retained for the Museum is 

 hardly sufficiently j)erfect to enable me to form a very decided 

 opinion resj^ecting it. 



(>."). P/iibi(Ia/)t('/-j/.r .siiiiiilansj n. sp. (No. (SO). 



Closely allied* to the preceding species, but the two lines 

 nearest to the base of primaries more arched and not duplicated; 

 the discal angulated line more oblique and distinctly more 

 sinuated toAvards the apex; secondaries with the oiitermost discal 

 blackish line distinctly zigzag and nearer to the outer margin, 

 the four lines between the latter and the base equidistant and 

 parallel; veins upon the disc alternately black and white; mar- 

 ginal line black ; primaries below more lakey in tint than 

 P. gohiata ; discocellular dots black. Expanse of Avings 1 inch 

 4 lines.

Also allied to P. gohiata, but lai'ger, of a ]iiore sandy tint ;
