equidistant outwardly curved sinuous black lines, the first margined 

 inwardly, the other two outwardly, with pinkish white, ante- 

 medial, medial, and post-medial, and rather close together ; a fourth 

 line, submarginal and of the same description on the fore wing 

 only, and which terminates near the apes in a pure white promi- 

 nent spot on a black ground, sometimes with a very small pure 

 white dot just above it. Under side paler, bands on hind wing as 

 above, and a discal band in addition on fore wing ; a longitudinal 

 spot for the orbicular, and a large round spot for the reniform, 

 both encircled with white ; apical spot as above, and a black 

 lunular mark at the end of cell on hind wing ; all the bands and 

 marks very black and prominent ; body black ; legs black, streaked 

 in some specimens with pale pinkish white, and spurs black.

507. Bertula agrestis, n. sp. 



Purplish brown. Body and wings for two-thirds their length 

 faintly dusted with grey. Fore wings crossed with three equi- 

 distant sinuous brown Hnes, ante-medial, medial, and post medial, 

 and rather close together, on hind wings ; these lines converge on 

 the abdominal border towards the anal angle, the third being lost 

 in the broadly diffused discal band, which crosses both wings, and 

 has a reddish tinge, and on the outside of this band is an indistinct 

 pale sinuous line ; marginal line black and lunular, a yellowish 

 patch at the anal angle of the hind wings. Wings below brown, 

 paling on the inner borders ; veins and lines between them promi- 

 nent ; three transverse sinuous lines as above, with an indication 

 of a fourtli. Expanse of wings, 1^ in. 



Rangoon, July, 1888. In coll. Swinhoe. 



I have this insect also from North Kanara. 



Allied to Bertula placida, Moore ; wings much shorter, 

 outer line bent instead of being nearly straight, and 

 differs in having the broadly diffused discal band.
