ENISPE. EURIPUS. HERONA. 293 



Genus LXIV. EURIPUS E. Doubleday MS. 



Body robust; hind wings deeply scalloped, with a very short truncated tail in the middle of the hind margin. 

 Head moderate-sized, hairy, scarcely tufted in front. 

 Eyes large, prominent, naked. 



Labial Palpi scaly, obliquely porrected, not elevated much higher than the middle of the eyes, porrected to about 

 half the lengtli of the head ; the tips converging, scaly, except at the base beneath, and on the back of the 

 terminal half of the second joint, which are hairy. Terminal joint small, ovate-conic. 

 Antennoi strong, rather more than half the length of the fore wings ; terminated by an elongated, rather slender 

 club, the tip of which is slightly curved outwardly. 

 Thorax elongate-ovate, robust, woolly, spotted with white in front. 



E'ore WiiKjs elongate-triangular. Anterior margin not strongly arched ; apical angle rather obtuse. Apical 

 margin about two thirds of the length of the anterior, very slightly scalloped, its anterior portion rather 

 convex, but emarginate below the middle ; anal angle strongly rounded. Inner margin equal in length to the 

 apical one. Subcostal vein having the first branch arising at about one fourth of the length of the wing ; 

 second branch arising rather beyond half the length of the wing ; third branch arising at about two thirds of 

 its length, and extending to the tip ; fourth branch arising half way between the third and the tip, extending 

 to the apical margin below the apex ; terminal portion of the vein more oblique. Upper disco-cellular vein 

 extremely short, transverse, arising at about one third of the length of the subcostal vein ; middle disco-cellular 

 very short, curved, forming the base of the lower discoidal vein ; lower disco-cellular vein obsolete, so that the 

 discoidal cell is open. Median vein strong ; its third branch not strongly arched at tlie base. 

 Hind Wings subtriangular. Costal margin much arched at the base. Outer margin deeply scalloped ; the 

 margin between the discoidal vein and the third median branch being somewhat elongated into a very short 

 truncated tail. Precostal vein slightly oblique in a direction from the body, and forked at the tip. Subcostal 

 vein branching near the base. Tlie ujjper disco-cellular forming the sti-aight base of the discoidal vein and 

 the lower disco-cellular obsolete, the cell being open. 

 Fore Legs of the male small, feathered, and formed as in the last genus ; annulated alternately with black and 



white hairs. (I have not seen a female of this genus, and cannot describe the structure of its fore legs.) 

 Four Hind Legs formed as in the genus Enispe. 

 Abdomen rather slender. 



This is an Indian genus nearly allied to Adolias but differing chiefly in the form of the hind wings, and in the style of the colouring, 

 which bears a stronger resemblance to those species of Diadema which compose the section to which I have applied the name of Hestina. 

 The under side of the species figured in our Plate XLI. is similarly marked to the upper side, except that the dark colour on the disc 

 of the wings is a paler brown, the marginal portion towards the anal angle of all the wings being purple-black ; the body beneath is 

 also spotted with Ijlack. I am happy in being able to add a second species to the genus, which I received from Assam by the kindness 

 of Major F. Jenkins, which has the fore wings very similar in their markings, but the hind wings have the black veins much less strongly 

 marked, and the inner row of spots near the anal angle of the hind wings is scarlet, the base of the hind wings beneath being also 

 marked with several rich scarlet patches, as in Diadema consimilis.
