7, advanced basally so as to be quite out of line with 
those above and below it. Clasps only slightly soldered to¬ 
gether and with minute terminal teeth, but with a solitary 
hair * longer than the clasp, thick and clubbed, arising 
close to its base. Type, labradns (with indica and 
antanossa). 
3. ZizULA, n.g.—does not conform in neuration to 
Zizera, and requires a separate generic heading, vein 11 
of forewing joining vein 12, and not again separating, 
i.e. it forms merely a bar from cell to vein 12. Like 
Zizeeria (restricted), the hiiidwing spots are in a con¬ 
tinuous row, but like Zizina, it has no spots in cell of 
forewing. The apj^endages possess a long clubbed hair 
just as in Zizina, so that one doubts whether the neura¬ 
tion has the importance that custom compels one to attach 
to it. 
The wings are rather more elongated than in Zizeeria 
and the spots beneath fall into a long oval on each wing, 
rather than into the usual “ blue ” pattern as in Zizeeria. 
I suggest 
Actizera (Aktin f Zizera) 
as a generic name for atrigemmata, with which Iv.cida, 
stellata and imuagaea appear to be congeneric. 
Veins 11 and 12 of forewing approach one another as 
in Plebeiid blues, but are far from touching each other. 
The appendages are similar to those of Zizeeriidi as to 
the dorsa except for the comparative shortness of the 
hooks, which terminate with a rounded end with very 
little tapering. The clasps are bent, of quite a different 
pattern to those of Zizeeriidi proper, and have teeth (when 
present) not terminally, but along the inner lower margin. 
The facies, at least of atrigemmata, is very Zizeeriid, and 
on its superficial characters one might suspect it to be a 
geographical race of lysimon. 
When we come to the individual species my interest 
has largely been in the Indian forms, of which de Nice- 
ville describes thirteen species, but states very distinctly 
his opinion that there are only four. 
* This hair may be regarded as homologous with the lowest of a 
continuous row that exi.sts on the clasp of lysimon, or more probably 
with a still lower one of the same series, absent in lysimon. 
f In reference to the white ray beneath the hind wing, present in 
atrigemmata, usually very marked in litcida.
