Eastern Pier idee. 339 



This species does not seem to vary much in Indian specimens, 

 and I consider Cramer was correct in making the allied forms 

 distinct. 



31. Pieris evagete, Cramer. 



Papilio evagete, Cr. 221 F, G, $. 

 Pieris coronis, part, Bd. Sp. Gen. p. 471. 

 Hab.— India (Coll. Wall., B. M.). 



Cramer's figure well represents the male of this species; the 

 female only differs by having the nervures, especially the median, 

 more dilated, and the colours rather more obscure. It is dis- 

 tinguished from the female of coronis by having a row of well- 

 marked submarginal spots on the upper surface of the fore wings, 

 by the yellow colour of the under surface of the hind wings, and 

 by their more rounded outline. 



32. Pieris corva, n. sp. 

 Pieris coronis, var. A., Bd. Sp. Gen. p. 472, <J. 



Female. — Has the nervures round the cell of the upper wings 

 much thickened, and the white apical spots obsolete ; beneath, as 

 in the male. 



Hab.— Java, Baly (Coll. Wall.). 



This form has a well-marked character of the under surface 

 which readily separates it from P. coronis. It also has a posterior 

 black border, much wider and more defined than in the allied 

 forms. 



33. Pieris zeiixippe, Cramer. 

 Papilio zeuxippe, Cr. 362 E, F. 

 Hab. — S. India. 

 This seems to be near P. hira, Moore. 



34. Pieris hira, Moore. 



Pieris hira, Moore, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1865, p. 490, pi. xxxi. 



f. 17. 

 Hab. — Punjaub, Oude (Coll. Moore). 

 This is a small distinct species, allied to P. coronis.
