 in P. cyaneiis ; black markings not so prominent, but some- 

 what confluent and leaving little interspaces between the mar-

Hah. Calicut, Malabar coast. In coll. F. Moore. 



Neptis sangaica.

Hah. Snowy Valley, Province Chekiang. In coll. W. B. 

 Pryer and F. Moore. 



Most nearly allied to N. alompra from Assam, and quite 

 different from N.eurt/no7ne,mRj be distinguished by the absence 

 on both the upper and underside of the hind wing of the nar- 

 row submarginal white lunular line. 



AtJiyma Pryeri. 



Male. Near to A. Helmanni from the Altai, but differs from 

 the same sex of that species in its larger size, the fore wing 

 being more produced at the apex, this wing above having the 

 markings more prominent and longer, and a distinct marginal 

 row of white streaks ; the band on the hind wing is also 

 broader, and there is a very prominent marginal row of white 

 streaks. Underside similarly but more prominently marked ; 

 the marginal white streaks on hind wing also prominent (these 

 being nearly obsolete, both above and beneath,in^. Helmanni)^ 

 with broader interspace between them and the median band. 



Exp. 2| inches. 



Hc^. Snowy Valley, Province Chekiang. In coll. W. B. 

 Pryer. 



The markings in this form have much the appearance of 

 those in A. sulpitia, Cram.
