5. Anthercea versicolor. 
Male.— Varied deep ochreous brown; outer borders 
ochreous, tinged with olive ; ocelli oval (;'; in. in diameter and 
;%; in length), taleose centre large; submarginal red band 
broad, the white outer border narrow on the fore wing and 
broken into dentate marks on the hind wing; an indistinct 
dusky subbasal band, a medial discal and contiguous lunular 
fascia on the fore wing. Hind wing with an indistinct dusky 
subbasal band extending close to and round the ocellus to the 
anal margin. 
Female.—Ochreous or greyish brown; ocelli large, oval 
(755 in. in diameter and $5 in length) ; discal area dusky brown ;

Expanse, ¢ 5, 9 53 inches. 
Hab. Purulia, Maumbhoom, W. Bengal. 
Of smaller size than either A. mylitta or A. nebulosa (of 
which latter species I have Hutton’s typical specimens), and

ocelli and the encircling discal dusky band on hind wing

line, with the centre talcose, the outer half being chrome- 
yellow and the inner half purplish red, the latter colour also 
extending more or less paler round the outer yellow half; 
crossing the middle of the wing is a more or less blackish 
wavy shade, which imperceptibly passes through the ocelli, 
and an oblique blackish, rather straight submarginal line 
extends halfway between the margin and the ocellus on the 
fore wing and at three fourths on the hind wing, this line in 
the female being exteriorly purplish-bordered and slightly 
grey-speckled towards the apex of the fore wing; in the 
female also the base of the costal border is likewise slightly 
erey-speckled; in some specimens of the female the outer border
