Lycsenidae. 



21. Gatochrysops cneJuSj Fabr. 

 A female at Mjadouiig, on the 4th January. 



22. Gatochrysops straho, Fabr. 



Two males at Sheemagar (lat. 22° 19' N.), on the 12th 

 December. 



23. Tarucus plinius^ Fabr. 



A much broken male was obtained at Kyouk Myoung 

 (lat. 22° 34' N.), on the Irrawaddy, 21st December. 



24. Tarucus callinara, sp. n. 



Near to T. nara^ with which both sexes agree on the upper 

 surface ; on the under surface, however, they agree witli T. 

 venosus, the black markings being all much enlarged ; the 

 submarginal lunules separate, instead of in a continuous den- 

 tate-sinuate line ; the series of spots beyond the cell of 

 secondaries quite distinctly arranged, commencing with three 

 spots in a regular oblique series, the third of these forming 

 the first of three spots arranged in a triangle, and beyond 

 these two spots placed angle to angle, the lower one contigu- 

 ous with the subbasal series. Expanse of wings 24 millim. 



Five specimens, of both sexes, taken at Sheemagar in De- 

 cember. 



The preceding appears to be a widely distributed species, 

 occurring in various parts of India and flying in May, July, 

 August, September, and December. We have received it in 

 all Col. Swinhoe's collections under the name of T. tlieo- 

 jihrastus, an African species differing considerably from it in 

 the arrangement of the markings on the under surface of 

 the secondaries. 



25. Lampides conferenday sp. n. 



Hitherto confounded with L. alexis^ but readily to be dis- 

 tinguished from the fact that it is of a sandy instead of greyish- 

 brown colour on the under surface, and that the whole of the 

 bands are shifted backwards towards the base, leaving a wide 

 pale band between the discal bands and the external border ; 

 the^ submarginal series of spots ill defined ; none of tlie mark- 

 ingfe distinctly white-edged, and the subanal ocellus of secon- 

 daries very small. Expanse of wings 31 millim.
