throughout transversely swelled at the segments. This subgenus is di- 
vided into the following sections, distinguished by the appendages of the 
hinder wings: 1. “Cauda solitaria obliqué divergente, cum appendiculo 
** anali elongato connat4,”’ illustrated by mblypodia Narana, a new 
species; 2. ‘ Caudis duabus distantibus exteriore minore, appendiculo 
‘< anali abbreviato,”’ also illustrated by a new species, Ambl. Vivarna; 
3. “ Caudis tribus, intermedia elongata, lateralibus minimis dentifor- 
‘¢ mibus, appendiculo anali brevi,’’ of which four described species, 
including the Papiliones P. R. Apidanus and Centaurus, Fab., are in the 
collection ; 4. “ Cauda solitarid longissima, appendiculo anali lineari 
“* subelongato,’’ a single new species, 4mbl. Sugriva, resembling in 
its markings the insects of the previous section, but approaching in its 
form to the true Thecle ; and 5. “‘ Caudis duabus mediocribus subeequa- 
* libus, dente marginali conspicuo, appendiculo anali rotundato pro- 
** dueto;’’ of this section ten species are described, five of which ap- 
pear to have been previously unnoticed. 
Of. Myrina two species are described. The first of these, Myr. Ra- 
vindra, Horsf., belongs to a section “ Alis posticis caudis tribus, inter- 
*« media longissima, interiore mediocri, exteriore brevi denti marginali 
‘“* adherente,’”’ and preserves, in the paiting of its lower surface, an 
affinity to tae individuals of Amblypodia, although in essential charace 
ters it rigidly agrees with Myrina, The second, Myrina Jafra, Latr: 
and Godt., is referred to another section of the genus, ‘ Alis posticis 
** caudis duabus denteque marginali prominulo; cauda exteriore longis- 
** sim4, interiore mediocri.”’ 
Loxura, a new genus proposed by Dr. Horsfield, agrees in. various 
particulars with Myrina. But its antenne are short, strict, more evi- 
dently incrassated towards the point, and provided at the terminal joints 
with more distinct bristles: its palpi are proportionally much longer, be- 
ing full half the length of the antenne : its head is comparatively nar- 
row, and the eyes prominent: its hinder wings are lengthened and-regu- 
larly attenuated to a narrow anal extremity; the anal appendage is 
angular, with a lateral projection, and an abrupt posterior termination ; 
and they have a single tail, which passes off in an oblique direction. 
According to Dr. Horsfield’s views, it stands in the series of the Papilio- 
nid@ near the confines of the Vermiform and Chilognathiform stirpes. Its
