178 Mr. L. B. Prout on 
20. Lrcheia latistria, sp. n. 
2 .—55 mm. 
Head and body coloured as in sharply marked dubia, the 
white segmental lines of abdomen rather strong. Wings 
shaped as in dubia, or with the termen slightly more 
crenulate. 
Fore wing with the coloration and essential markings 
of dubia and cyllaria; probably equally variable; in the 
unique type the prominent dark markings are the “semi- 
circular”’ costal patch between submedian line and apex, 
the costal end of antemedian and median lines, and a thick 
black longitudinal streak behind cell and proximal part of 
M? from base nearly to postmedian line, here crossing M’ 
and continuing in cellule 2 to termen; postmedian line 
moderately distinct ; subterminal line weak; broad but ill- 
defined terminal clouding between R’ and tornus. 
Hind wing blackish fuscous, with clean white markings, 
similar to those of guadriplaga, Walk., but broader. 
Underside as in the most sharply marked forms of dubia, 
the basal part of both wings being predominantly white ; 
cell-spot of hind wing smaller than in most dudva. 
Gilolo, 1904. 
Perhaps a local race of dubia, in which case quadriplaya 
aud cyllaria may also belong to the same protean species. 
21. Achea cyanobathra, sp. n. 
3 .—47 mm. 
Head and body dark brown, the abdomen darker dorsally ; 
pectus and hair of femora and tibiz partly more ochreous ; 
bases and tips of spines and narrow rings at ends of tarsal 
j ints also pale. 
Fore wing dark brown with very strong purple gloss (in 
the proximal area somewhat darker and much bluer, in the 
narrow terminal area wanting); a faint curved pale subbasal 
line from costa to SM’; antemedian line 6 mm. from base 
at both margins, almost straight, slightly waved, little paler 
than the ground-colour ; a weak dark spot representing the 
orbicular stigma; reniform nearly as in intercisa, Walk., 
but less conspicuous on the darker ground; postmedian line 
feeble, apparently formed as in leucopera, Druce, the veins 
beyond it with slight pale dashes; a dark double sub- 
terminal line slightly nearer the termen than in leucopera 
aud wanting the apical ornamentation of that species; a 
crenulate dark terminal line ; fringe with slender pale line 
at base and a less sharply defined one in middle.
