Lepidoptera of the Khasia Hills. 217 
double on forewing, the two lines gradually widening on to the 
costa; 3rd discal somewhat close to the margin, more or less 
outwardly dentated, and edged in places with whitish on its outer 
side, marginal sinuous line dark brown; underside pale brown, 
discal ringlets and central thick black transverse line prominent on 
both wings. Expanse of wings, 1,°; inch. 
Shillong and Cherra Punji; many examples. Allied 
to B. gemmaria, Brahm., but differs in the absence of 
the discal marks, evanescent bands above, and band on 
hindwings more elbowed outwards. 
Genus Racotis, Moore. 
535. R. boarniaria (Guén.), Phal. i., p. 282 (1857). 
Shillong and Cherra Punji. There are two forms, one 
darker and smaller than the other. It is a very common 
species in the Khasias.

Shillong and Cherra Punji. 
D837. X. latiferaria (Walker), xxi, p. 445 (1860). 
Shillong. Six males. The type came from N. China, 
but these specimens appear to be identical with the 
type.

Shillong and Cherra Punji; common. 
540. M. mawraria (Guén.), lc., p. 218. 
Shillong and Cherra Punji. In Cotes and Swinhoe’s 
“ Moths of India,” No. 3264, M. parisnatei (Walker) is 
put as a synonym of the above. But this is not correct ; 
parisnatet is uniformly much larger than mawraria, and 
has a large pale-yellowish spot in the centre of the outer 
margin of the forewings in both sexes, besides other differ- 
ences. I have both sexes from the Chin Hills, and many 
examples of both sexes of mauraria from the Khasias.
