Intermediate in character between //. Trmina and //. 

 Boreas. 



GENUS ARGYNNIS. Fuhricius. 



35. Argynnis Fallescois, n. sj). 



J, ?. Intermediate betweeir A. Vorax and A. AdipiJC, 

 size of the latter ; differs from A. Vorax above in the more 

 dusky tint of basal half of secondaries ; below in the pre- 

 sence of three suljapical silver spots (two submarginal and 

 one subcostal), in primaries ; a series of small silver 

 spots, partly obscured by green and ochreous scales, just 

 within the central waved discal series of secondaries ; the 

 ocelli better defined ; and a submarginal series of seven 

 large silver spots encircled by a green zone : expanse of 

 wings, 2 inches, 5 lines. 



Hakodadi ( Jtlutely). 4 examples. B.M. 



This species was included iii my list of Hakodadi butter- 

 flies as A. Adipi^e var.; it, however, is clearly distinct from 

 that species, being considerably paler above, with the black 

 spots smaller ; below it is greener than A. Chlorodijipe, 

 and the submarginal silver spots are considerably larger ; 

 from A. Jainadeca. it is distinguished by its more produced 

 primaries, its more dingy colouring on both surfaces, its 

 larger l)lack spots, the size of the submarginal silver spots, 

 and the consequent narrowness of the discal ochreous area; 

 the dark streaks upon the median branches of primaries 

 a1)0ve are also much better developed in A. Fallescois S than 

 in A. Jainadcirt J^. 



36. Argymiis Ineonstans, n. sj). 



S. Above similar to the Javanese representative of ^. 

 KiiH^r, but paler, with the marginal spots much larger ; 

 below paler, Avitli all the black and silver markings 

 enlarged, and the central band of secondaries widened : 

 expanse of wings, 2 inches, 8 lines.
