on Eastern Butterflies. 3i5 



Cramer's type of L. Hippoda is from Amboyna. The 

 specimens from Celebes differ considerably in marking, 

 and may be distinct. The females of these are brown, 

 but paler than the males. The Indian form, with a white 

 female, is probably distinct, and has not yet been 

 named. 



Laogona Hyl^us, n. s. 



Male. Allied to L. Hippocla; outline of wings more 

 even, except the portion between the short tail and the 

 anal angle, which is more regularly scallopped. 



Above: nearly as in L. Kippoda, but the apical and 

 upper marginal spot wanting on the anterior wings ; on 

 the hind-wings the two transverse rufous bands are con- 

 fluent, leaving a broad black margin without any sub- 

 marginal line. 



Beneath: the markings are similar to L. Hippoda, 

 but rather more diffused. 

 Expanse 1*8 inch. 

 Hah. — Dorey, New Guinea (Wall.) . 



Laogona Hypatia, n. s. 



Male. Form of wings nearly as in L. Hippoda, the 

 outline a little more even. 



Above : the markings are nearly as in L. Hippoda, but 

 the rufous band and markings are all enlarged, and have 

 a very irregular outline, especially on the anterior wings. 



Beneath : quite distinct from L. Hippoda : the ground 

 colour whitish ochre, veined in a complicated net-work 

 with deep rusty brown; near the middle of the outer 

 margin on the upper- wings is an elongate blackish spot 

 with a blue centre, enclosed on its inner side with a 

 horseshoe and a lunule of the ground colour; on the outer 

 margin of the hind-wings is a row of brown spots enclosed 

 by a double row of lunules on each side, the two central 

 spots are violet-ash powdered with black, while the lateral 

 ones consist of a brown ring with a whitish centre. 



Expanse 1"9 inch. 



Hah. — Java (Wallace) . 



On the under side this insect is somewhat intermediate 

 between L. Hippoda and L. Hypselis.
