17. Aphaena basirufa Walk. Cat, Homopt. pt. 2. 218. 
It differs slightly from the three Silhet specimens in the British Museum, 
which are exactly alike. 
18. APHAENA SATURATA, n. S., mas. Nigra, thoracis lateribus ferugincis, 
alis anticis viridi-nigris e linea transversa arcuata lutescente in arcas duas 
divisis, area interiore longiore semicirculis rufescentibus ornata, exteriore 
subrotunda creberrime luteo-venosis, posticis linea recta divisis, marginis 
interioris dimidio basalí flavo plagiato. 
Male. Black. Ferruginous piceous, black beneath. Wings greenish-black, 
divided into two areas by a transverse line, which is eurved and pale luteous 
in the fore wings, straight and rather darker in the hind wings ; interior arca 
longer than the other one, adorned in the fore wings with various little lu- 
teous half-ringlets which are accompanied by dots, in the hind wings with 
partly green veins, and with a yellow patch towards the base of the interi- 
or border; exterior area nearly round, most thickly erowded with Tuteous 
veins; a glaucous bloom covering the interior area on the under side, and 
forming a semicircle on the exterior one. Length of the body 11 lines; of 
the wings 80 lines. 
This species and A. rosea Guér., are closely allied in structure and ín the 
disposition of the colours, and are distinguished from the two preceding species 
by their much more ample wings. 
19. APHAENA VERIS-AMOR, n. 8., mas et foem. Nigra, facie pedibusque ferru- 
gineis, abdomine rufo, alis anticis saturate et laetissime viridibus, eosta li- 
nea arcuata exteriore maculaque basali flavis, subtus tomento albo variis, pos- 
ticis niveis apice fulvis. 
Male and Female. Black. Face and legs ferruginous. Abdomen red. Fore wings 
intensely grass-green, with the costa, a basal spot, a few dots in the disk , 
and an exterior curved transverse line yellow; tips tawny ; under side with 
various marks of white tomentum, which also appears on the costa above 
at the base. Hind wings snow-white, with tawny tips. Length of the body 
11 lines; of the wings 26 lines. 
This species has narrow fore wings like 4. scutellaris, but belongs to a dis- 
tinct group. 
90. APHAENA UNIFORMIS, 0. S., foem. Fusca, capite thorace antico pedibusque 
fulvis, alis fulvo venosis, anticis basi nigris fascia contigua flava. 
vemale. Brown. Head, fore part ofthe thorax and legs tawny. Abdominal seg= 
ments with red borders. Wings with tawny veins. Fore wings narrow, black 
at the base, near which there is a yellow band. Length of the body 8 lines; 
of the wings 22 lines. 
This species will form a fourth group in the genus. The veins of the fore 
wings have the same structure over the whole surface.
