 Fregatte Novara, v., pi. cxxiv., fig. 7 (1875). 



The male resembles the female, both in form and 

 markings ; the figure of the supposed male in the ' Reise 

 der Novara ' is incorrect in outline, being represented as 

 more like the female than it really is ; it is a decidedly 

 longer-winged insect, and not dentated like Azelina 

 felderi ; in fact it is not an Azelina ; curiously enough, 

 the two forms were associated by Mr. Edmonds, which 

 renders it probable that they frequent the same flowers. 



The pattern of Felder' s supposed sexes is perfectly dis- 

 similar.

24. Azelina corticalis, n. s. 



Form of A. anceta ; base of primaries ochraceous, with 

 two small black spots at the inner angle, bounded by a 

 straight red-brown band, partly edged externally w^ith 

 black, and followed by a broad sordid white belt with 

 angulated olivaceous outer margin ; this belt is spotted 

 below the cell with blackish, and dotted here and there 

 with the same colour; an oblique costal dash just before 

 the middle ; external two-fifths pale olivaceous ; an ill- 

 defined white-speckled dentated black stripe just beyond 

 the broad white belt ; a subapical slightly oblique olive- 

 brown abbreviated band with snow-white zigzag outer 

 edge, from which one or two longitudinal blackish dashes 

 run to the outer margin ; external angle clouded with 

 red-brown and black, and spotted with white; secondaries 

 pale sericeous pinky brown, flecked with grey, and 

 traversed by two externally white-edged dentated black 

 lines, the first just beyond the middle, the second 

 submarginal, interrupted ; a black marginal line ; body 

 very pale sericeous greyish brown ; a black spot on the 

 collar; primaries below pale sericeous bronzy brown,
