454 Mr. G. T. Betliune-Baker on new 



shorter. Secondaries with a short green basal costal dash, and 

 a narrow brilliant metallic curved short stripe crossing the 

 end of the cell. 



Expanse 47 mm. 



Bab. Mount Keberai, 8000 feet, Arfak Mountains, Dutch 

 New Guinea. 



Type in Coll. Kenrick. 



I was at first inclined to think this might be the female of 

 the previous species, but the underside is so totally different in 

 the metallic markings that I conclude its male has not yet 

 been received. 



Milionia arfaki, sp. n. 



cJ . Head (vertex) and abdomen bronzy lustrous green. 

 Both wings deep black with rosy-red bands. Primaries with 

 a median broad red oblique stripe slightly curved, scarcely 

 touching the costa, a broadish inner-marginal dash from 

 beyond the base, scarcely touching the transverse stripe. 

 Secondaries with a broad red band across the end of the 

 cell. 



Underside as above, but the red is replaced with orange. 

 ? . As the male, but the transverse stripes are nearer the 

 termen and right across the wings in both primaries and 

 secondaries, and the red is inclined to orange. 



Expanse, <J 50, ? 51 mm. 



Nab. Warmasin Lakes, 6000 feet, Arfak Mountains, Dutcli 

 New Guinea. 



Types in Coll. Kenrick. 



In some specimens the inner-marginal dash is quite isolated 

 from the transverse band of the primaries, in others like the 

 type it almost touches, whilst in one male it forms a broad 

 continuous angulated stripe. 



Milionia flavostriga, sp. n. 



? . Head and collar iridescent blue j thorax slightly tawny ; 

 abdomen bright pale metallic blue (not green). Both wings 

 black with orange-yellow bands. Primaries with a broad 

 orange-yellow oblique band from the costa nearly into the 

 tornus across the end of the cell, a broad darker yellow patch 

 from the base into the cell, whence it tapers off into the 

 oblique band, thus making the whole of the inner margin 

 yellow and leaving only a narrowish wedge-shaped black 

 mark from the costa to vein 1. Secondaries with a broad 

 postmedian orange-yellow band irregular as to its outer 

 margin ; basal area covered with tawny yellow scales. 



Underside as the upperside, except that there is no yellow
