C34 Pieter C. T. Snellen on a 



corycialis, Snell. As to argyria, Butler {Zebronia argyria, llliist., 

 3, p. 76, pi. 59, f. 9), it seems to be distinguished by the absence of 

 transverse lines on fore wings and by their grey costa (though this 

 latter character is not mentioned in the description). Mr. Butler 

 describes and figures also fo2ir black spots on hind wings. Fauci- 

 l)unctalis differs from the African diapJiana by the want of the 

 apical black spots of fore and hind wings, by the position of the 

 outermost of the four basal spots of fore wings, which is not placed 

 on the same line as the first and second but lower, by the flexuous, 

 not angular, second line, and by the smaller size. From meritalis 

 it differs by its larger size, the want of the black stripe on hind 

 margin of fore wings, and the want of the apical spot of hind 

 wings. Levinia is a roughly figured small American species, 

 which I do not possess, and leave undiscussed. Palpi white, like the 

 thorax and abdomen, the latter with two black spots near the base, 

 and a faint ochreous baud with two minute black spots near the 

 apex. Upper side of wings white, with two diffused ochreous 

 transverse lines, the second flexuous ; four black spots at base, as 

 shown by the figure, one on the disco-cellular, a sixth on the costa 

 above the fifth, a little more outward, a seventh at the origin of 

 the second line, and the eighth in cell 2, near hind margin ; the 

 sixth and seventh affect in two specimens the form of black rings, 

 in the other three they are very small. As in meritalis, the black 

 spot on inner margin, at the extremity of the second line, is 

 wanting. Hind wings only with three black spots ; hind margin 

 ochreous, but only in the Sikkim specimens distinctly so, in two 

 of the Javanese nearly white. Fringes greyish white. Under 

 side suffused with grey, especially along the costa and hind margin 

 of fore wings.
