as usual much more so in the female than in the male, 
nearest in coloration to K. Huegeli, Kollar, but different in 
colour to any Indo-Malayan species; the yellow band on 
fore wings is more ochreous and the blue particles with which 
the base and lower portions of fore wings are densely covered 
and with which the whole of the hind wings is more or less 
suffused is of a very peculiar shade of colour. The underside 
represents the usual varieties of the dried leaf pattern.

Omei-shan, China (Stevens). Five examples. 
T called Mr. Leech’s attention to the distinctive character 
of this species last November; but he has included it in the 
species A. ¢nachis in his fine work on the Lepidoptera of 
China, Japan, and Corea. No doubt the genus Kallima has 
been split up into too many so-called species, but this insect 
is very distinetive, and I venture to say one could at a glance 
pick out all the examples of this species from a collection of 
Kallimas, however large it might be. 
Genus Neprtis, Fabr. 
Neptis disopa, sp. n. 
3 3%. Uppersidebrown-black, bandsorange-red. Forewings 
with a longitudinal streak from base of wing, indented above 
at end of cell ; a subapical oblique band divided by the veins 
into three parts ; a large discal spot with the second median 
veinlet running through its upper portion and a band of three 
smaller spots below it inwardly oblique, touching the hinder 
margin and merely divided by the submedian vein. Hind 
wings with an inner band slightly recurved and an outer band 
nearly even with the outer margin, both bands of about the 
same width; a very faint indication of a submarginal line. 
Underside dark ferruginous, with the longitudinal and oblique 
bands on fore wings ochreous, and two submarginal grey lines 
or thin bands. Hind wings with a thin grey band below the 
inner band which is nearly pure white, the outer band tinged 
with ochreous, and the submarginal line distinct and grey. 
Expanse of wings, ¢ 275, 2? 27%; inches. 
Omei-shan, China (Stevens). Two examples. 
Mr. Leech, in the ‘ Lepidoptera of China, Japan, and 
Corea,’ calls this insect Neptis miah, Moore. I have a long 
series of NV. mtah, which is a species apparently confined to 
the Indian region. This species constantly differs from 
N. miah in many respects, particularly in the character of the 
bands of the hind wings above, the inner and outer bands 
being of almost equal breadth, which is never the case in
