yellow, transverse, with a small connected dot in front, and a short 

 streak behind, a subbasal indistinct disconnected chocolate trans- 

 verse band, another similarly coloured more distinct band just 

 beyond, bent outwardly to and disconnected at the reniform, two 

 others beyond the orbicular, one bent just outside it, where there 

 is a large suffused dark chocolate space, the outer line white above, 

 and deeply bent in on to the costa almost above the orbicular ; a 

 submarginal white line denticulated above, limiting the flaming 

 subcostal patch, and sinuous below, the space between this and the 

 inner band being more or less suffused with igneous yellow ; 

 another indistinct white and brown line close to the margin. Hind 

 wings pale on the costal portion, a brown lunule at end of cell, a 

 brown recurved line corresponding to the third line on the fore 

 wings, a white recurved line corresponding to the fourth, edged on 

 both sides with brown, followed by a yellowish band ; the rest of 

 the wing dark chocolate, with the submarginal white line and line 

 close to the margin like those on the fore wing ; cilia on both wings 

 dark chocolate, interlined. Expanse of wings, 1^ in. 



Eangoon, August, 1886 and 1888. In coll. Swinhoe. 



Differs from all other Egnasia in its oblique white 

 subapical line on fore wings, the fiery-red mark at end 

 of cell, and straight red-bordered black discal line on 

 hind wing. 



471. Nagadeha ianthina, n. sp. 



Brownish purple ; palpi white speckled with brown. Body and 

 wings irrorated with greyish white atoms, a prominent white spot 

 for the orbicular, reniform pale, indistinct ; costal space towards 

 apex smeared with white ; both wings crossed by a white line, 

 margined with brown on its inner side, which commences on the 

 costa near the middle, runs straight towards the outer margin, 

 forms an angle outside the reniform, and is slightly sinuous from 

 thence to the abdominal margin of hind wing near anal angle; 

 between this line and the base are several indistinct transverse 

 brownish bands, and between this line and the outer margin is an 

 indistinct sinuous whitish line, dentated in parts, and also margined 

 inwardly with brown ; cilia brown, with a fiery red basal band. 

 Expanse of wings, -^ in. 



Eangoon, July, 1888. In coll. Swinhoe. 



Has the white oblique subapical streak and bands 

 disposed somewhat as in Egnasia igneola.
