the cell to the discal band, a much liroader and prominent white 

 streak in the interno-median interspace, also from base to discal band, 

 the latter composed of white spots much as in haulus, but broader

Rah. Sangir {Doherty). 



Male and female, the types, and one male marked 

 Celebes. 



It somewhat resembles ahicnns, Butler. 



Deilemera obtusa. 



Nydcmcra ohtnsa, Walker, vii, 1G6G (1850). 



Pag., Jahrb. Nass. Ver. Naturk, 1901, 

 p. 115. 



Three examples from Celebes, including the type. 



In Kiikenthal's Eeisc (Abhandl. Senckenbergschen 

 Gesellschaft), p. 440, pi. 18, £ 4, Pagenstecher described 

 and figured N. consohrina, Ilopfter. In Jahrb. Nass. Ver. 

 1901, p. 115, he says that this was a mistake, and that the 

 description and figure represent N. ohtusa, Walker ; but this 

 also is an error, the figure being very unlike Walker's 

 species, and representing a species with which I am not 

 acquainted.

 Nydcmcra arcuatum. Swinhoe (nee Voll.), Cat. Het, Mus.

Twenty-two examples from Borneo, Silhet, Ceylon, 

 Burma, Sumatra, Javn, Pulo Laut, and the type from 

 Maulmein. 



Arcuatum, Voll., was wrongly identified in the B. M., and 

 this led me to sink it as a synonym to latidriga in Cat. Het, 

 Mus. Oxon, Snellen in Tijd. v. Ent., xli, p. 26, pi, 1, f 3, 4, 

 5 (1898), says it belongs to the Chalcosiida? ; Pagenstecher 

 (p, 114) makes consohrina, Hoptter, a distinct species ; he
