Probably our species is the same as Hexjicnt (Fah.y—MuriiheuH 

 .iCraiii.) which latter species seems variable in one character in 

 which ours is always constant. I.e., the reddish or ferruginous 

 colour of the secondaries ; for, although in all the examples I 

 have seen from India and Ceylon this character agrees with 

 Moore's fig. in Lep. Cey., the secondaries being of the same 

 brown hue as in the primaries, we find that Walker makes it 

 -" ferruginosae " and Bois. " brun roussatre," Fab. describing it as 

 " hiscis." There appears to l)e no published description of 

 Anti'iHida.
