the genus Ypthima. 51 
shape of the fore wing, which has the apical angle pro- 
duced as in the genus Kallima.

“Allied to sakra, but has pale outer-discal fasciz on 
under side ; strongly marked in the @ .’’--Moore, in litt. 
Y. dromon, Oberthir, Etud. d’Ent., xv , p. 15, pl. i, 
fig. 12 (1891). 
Chiefly differs from the same author’s Y. dromonides, 
l.c., fig. 14 (= iris, Leech) by the reduction in the size 
of the ocelli, which, in the case of those on the under side 
of the hind wing, almost reaches vanishing point.

Y. clinioides, Ob., l.¢., p. 16. 
According to its author, this species bears the same 
relation to Y. clinia, Ob. (=ciris, Leech) as Y. dromon, 
Ob., does to iris, Leech (dromonides, Ob.). 
Oberthir figures (Etudes d’Ent., xv., pl. i1., fig. 17), 
under the name of EH/pinephele phania, an insect from 
Yunnan, which has for us all the appearance of an 
Ypthima, and is possibly the true Y. amphithea of Méné- 
tries; but see p. 17, ante. 
Y. norma, Westw., Gen. Diurn. Lep., pl. lxvii, 
fig. 1 (1851). 
The types of this species in the British Museum seem 
to be distinguished from asterope by the absence of the 
ocellus on the hind wing above, and the different 
character of the striolation of the under side; but we 
think it highly probable that an examination of the $ 
genitalia would show a structural distinction, as it is 
difficult to believe that a species so characteristic of a 
desert fauna as asterope, which does not occur in the 
Indo-Chinese region, should reappear in China, the 
specimens labelled ‘‘China, coll. Kaden,” in coll. God- 
man & Salvin, referred to p. 12, ante, notwithstanding.
