Fara. Pieridae. 



Appias mahana. 



Male. Allied io A. indra, but on upperside differs in having 

 the apical black border less prominent, narrower, extending to 

 a less distance posteriorly (terminating before reaching the 

 lower median vein), and containing five rather large speckle- 

 bordered spots, one between every two veins. Underside — apex 

 of fore wing whitish buff, brown-speckled, bordered by a short 

 black-speckled curved streak : hind wing whitish buff, brown- 

 speckled throughout, a series of these speckles also forming ill- 

 defined, uninterrupted, transverse streaks ; discocellular black 

 spot prominent. 



Exp. 2 1 inches. 



Hah. Darjiling {A.Orote). In coll. F. Moore. 



Ajppias narendra. 



Allied to A. indra and A. Lucasi. 



Male. Upperside — fore wing with broad black apex showing 

 two white spots ; hind wing with a narrow black-speckled 

 margin, the speckles also slightly extending up each vein. 

 Underside — apex of fore wing buff-brown, black subapical 

 band broad : hind wing buff-brown, densely speckled with 

 brown scales, a series of these forming irregular, uninterrupted, 

 zigzag, transverse streaks ; discocellular spot small, black.

Hah. Ceylon. In coll. F. Moore. 



Terias cingala. 



Upperside yellow ; fore wing with broad brown outer mar- 

 ginal band ; hind wing with narrow brown marginal band. 

 Cilia brown. Underside pale yellow ; hind wing with two 

 slightly perceptible dusky transverse streaks. 



Exp. 1^ inch. 



Hah. Ceylon. In coll. F. Moore. 



Form of wings as in T. venata^ but differs in having the 

 marginal band on fore wing scalloped and broadly terminating 

 at posterior angle as in T. drona. From T. rama (the Cey- 

 lonese ally of T. venata) it differs also in the same manner, as 

 well as being without a black discocellular streak on the un- 

 derside of fore wing and the three subbasal brown spots and 

 two prominent transverse streaks on the hind wing. 



Terias pallitana. 

 Upperside yellow : fore wing with broad apical marginal
