years^ and as the horned form of this group appears to 

 be absent from the Indian Peninsula, I feel satisfied that 

 the locality of that specimen is incorrect, and that it 

 really came from the Philippines.

This species seems very different from the Philippine 

 island males which appear to be identical with Hope's 

 type (a female) of H. ornata from India. It is a striking 

 example of how much collections are still required from 

 the East, that during the twenty-five years that have 

 elapsed since Mr, Cuming returned from the Philippine 

 Islands, no males of this species have been received in 

 this country. This may probably be an extreme form of 

 H. ornata ? , from which it hardly differs except in the 

 form and size of the spots.

Westwood's figure shows that this must be a very dis- 

 tinct species of the horned group, the male of which is 

 not yet known. There appear to be no specimens in 

 this country.
