Dr. T. A. Chapman on Zizeeria, 
In examining the genitalia of this group, as a possible 
outlier of the Lycaenopsids I found that there were cer¬ 
tainly more than four Indian species. Accordipgly I felt 
it desirable to examine the whole group as far as possible. 
The Indian species are really six, which I will call pro¬ 
visionally ossa, harsandra, indica (Murray = otisV), 
sangra (Moore = lahradus) and gaiJca. 
I further concluded that the central group of true Zizee- 
riids contained only these six, with the possible exceptions 
of antanossa, which may be held to be distinct, but which 
may perhaps be as easily regarded as a geographical race of 
indica, and lysimon, which I incline to accept as distinct 
from harsandra. 
Zizeeria. —1. Karsandra is usually smaller than rnaha 
or ossa, but is sometimes *24 mm. in expanse, whilst ossa is 
often only 22, and malm is sometimes as small; indeed, I 
have one specimen of only 20 mm. 
Beneath the fore-wing the post-discal row of spots is 
bolder than in nudia, and instead of being in a slightly 
curved line is much arched, bringing the spot between 
veins 2 and 8 much nearer the angle of the cell. Some 
specimens of malm and ossa, however, vary in this direc¬ 
tion. A more constant difference is that harsandra has a 
spot between veins 9 and 10, which much increases the 
curved appearance of the row of spots. I am not sure 
that this spot is ever absent in harsandra or lysimon ; in 
malm it is present as a not very rare aberration. 
I have a specimen from the Moore collection labelled 
sangra (Mergui), and placed in it with real sangra, that 
apparently was taken in the same locality as and with sangra, 
and that differs from the type by having no spot in the cell 
beneath the forewing, and in the row of spots being 
rather small and more equal as in sangra, and not large 
and bold and of graduated size. It can nevertheless be 
recognised as harsandra by tlie position of the second spot 
in the row beneath the hindwing. For myself, I must 
confess I had exaiqined the appendages before noting these 
several details. 
The appendages are shown in figs. 20 and 24. 
Fig. 20 shows how the clasps resent the attempt to 
flatten them by lateral pressure, thereby agreeing with 
maha and ossa (figs. 18 and 19). 
The Mergui specimen noted above is clearly an aberra¬ 
tion of harsandra, as wanting sundry spots, and though
