at the base and sides, with a dorsal pale band and some silvery 

 spots on each side on last four segments ; anal tuft small, brownish. 



Fore-wings brownish on costal portions, with some blackish brown 

 patches : a central broad, pale, very oblique band from the centre 

 of the hinder margin to the apex, limited on its inner side by two 

 brown lines close together, which bend up near the hinder margin, 

 where there is a brown spot, and extend irregularly upwards to the 

 costa ; the band is limited on its outer side by a dark blackish brown 

 band, which has dentations on its outer side along the veins, a 

 sub-marginal angulated line with points on the angles, and a brown 

 space on the hinder margin of the wing near the angle. 



Hind-wings pinkish fawn colour, paling at the costal and abdominal 

 spaces. 



Underside, dark pinkish grey, pectus and thorax whitish, abdomen 

 with some whitish lateral small spots, wings very uniform in colour, 

 with a transverse post-medial line of brown points on the veins, 

 and a dark marginal band nearly uniform in width. 



Expanse of wings 2^ inches.

Panacra (?) ochracea. Butler : T. Z. 8., Lond., ix. p. 551 (1876). 



a. Sumatra (type) (Wallace). 



This insect is very closely allied to Calliomina thorates (Hiibner), 

 from the New World, and much resembles it in shape and pattern, 

 and I think probably there has been some mistake as to its locality.
