very narrow, often interrupted, sometimes almost linear; the 
discal series of white decreasing spots well marked: secon- 
daries reddish ochreous, similar to EL. communicans; thorax 
black; head and tegule spotted with white; abdomen bright 
ochre-yellow, banded with black. 
Eixpanse of wings 2 inches 10 lines to 3 inches. 
Silhet (Sowerby & Stainsforth). Type, B.M. 
We have eight examples of this species; although rather 
variable as regards the transverse bands of primaries, they 
are all so similar that I have no doubt they represent but one 
species. 
7. EHusemia villicoides, n. sp. Pl. XIII. fig. 2. 
Alhed to E. vetula, but with the sulphur-yellow spots of 
primaries enormously enlarged, the three on basal area uniting 
into one patch, enclosing two black spots (the upper one 
rounded within cell, the lower irregular, sometimes uniting 
with the black at base); the discal yellow spots placed one 
above the other and subquadrate; submarginal spots as usual, 
the one at anal angle rather larger; base streaked with plum- 
baginous, an irregular discal line of the same colour: secon- 
daries orange instead of red; the internal fasciole broken up 
into two rounded black spots; two large subapical yellow 
spots upon the black margin: thorax broad and black, ptery- 
godes sulphur-yellow: abdomen orange, transversely barred. 
with grey: wings below paler than above, the yellow spots 
still larger, so that almost the entire basal half of primaries 
is pale yellow; secondaries with four elongated apical and 
two small submarginal pale yellow spots. 
Expanse of wings 2 inches 6 lines. 
Hakodadi (Whitely). ‘Two specimens, B.M. 
8. Husemia superba, n. sp. Pl. XIII. fig. 3. 
Allied to EL. euphemia, much larger. Primaries with four 
white dots at the base of costa; two ochreous dots at base of cell ; 
a small ochreous spot and a plumbaginous dot at base of 
interno-median interspace, and an ochreous interno-basal dot ; 
four large ochreous spots on basal area, one just before middle 
of cell, a second, larger, at end of cell, a third, elongated, 
oblique, crossing the middle of the internal nervure, a fourth, 
subquadrate, below base of first median branch; an ochreous 
spot at external angle; a large, ochreous subapical blotch ; 
several plumbaginous streaks between the ochreous spots; 
secondaries as in 1. euphemia: thorax black, spotted in front 
with white: abdomen orange, banded with black: male with
