margins. A slight lilac suffusion at the anal angle. Underside 
slightly darker than in bzlineata. Fore wing with shorter black stripe 
below the cell, apical patch grey white, faintly pinkish. Hind wing 
with the outer two post-discal lines less distinct and becoming 
obsolete posteriorly. 
Length of fore wing: 64 mm. 
Hab.—North Manusela, Central Ceram, 2500 ft., March, 
1919, C., F. & J. Pratt, 1 ¢. 
This specimen was bred from a larva brought in by natives. 
‘‘For about two weeks it barely moved, making no attempt to 
eat or search for food. On December 30th we put it in a box 
with earth. It immediately burrowed, and did not cast its skin 
until early in February. The imago emerged on March 5th.”’ 
The larva is briefly described by Messrs. Pratt as follows: 
‘‘ The larva is green with five lateral ridges the whole length of 
the body. It is covered with tiny protuberances, forming a 
rasping surface.”’ 
Pupa.—The pupa-case was sent and may be described as 
follows: It is 60 mm. in length and 17 mm. in diameter at the 
wing-cases. Proboscis sheath reaching about to the tip of the 
wing-cases. The eighth and ninth segments show a slight and 
broad protuberance on the ventral side. The cremaster is 
broadly triangular, 3 mm. at the base and 2 mm. long. 
3. Clanis hawkeri, sp. n. 
Quite distinct from any other in the genus. Fore wing with 
apex not pointed, outer margin slightly rounded. The palpi are 
smaller and shorter than in other species, and the second 
segment is more concave. The hind wing has the discocellulars 
more oblique. We hesitate to make a new genus for this species, 
though it may possibly be distinct, but further material of this 
or other species with similar characteristics is desirable. 
3. Upper side of fore wing vandyke brown, with oblique trans- 
verse bands of darker brown with grey-white discal and basal suffusion 
A sub-basal line, a second line crossing the wing at vein 2, both edged 
with grey white on the inside; a discal line crossing the wing at 
origin of vein 3, broader in cellule 2 and not reaching the submedian ; 
a post-discal line, strongly marked from the origin of vein 6 to vein 
4, where it curves inward and is indistinct to the submedian ; a second 
post-discal line, less distinct, from base of cellule 6 to vein 4, and 
bordered with a grey-white suffusion on each side; a heavily marked 
sub-apical band, anteriorly broad at vein 7, and reaching vein 9d. 
These lines or narrow bands are not well defined and are diffuse on 
their edges. An indication of greyish longitudinal stripes in cellules 
2-4. Hind wing dull red brown, with a marginal border of grey brown, 
darker anteriorly. Inner margin creamy white. Underside of fore- 
wing pale ochreous brown, the basal half red brown like the hind wing 
above. Distal margin grey white with a pink tinge, this colour pro- 
duced as narrow stripes in cellules 2-5. The outer three bands of
