Aciloa palatinus ferruginosa, subsp. n. 
Differs from typical palatinus and the race palatinoides in 
having the ground-colour of fore wings above much redder ; 
the submarginal..reddish-brown spots of hind wing are tri- 
angular and touch at their bases ; the eround-colour of the 
fore wing below is uniform dull orange, without the brown 
apical area of the other forms. In palatinus and its known 
races the costal black patch contains an orange patch at its 
lower end ; in the new race the costal patch is entirely black 
and there are two black spots between veins 2 and 3, of 
which the upper is the larger. Hind wing below similar to 
that of palatinus, but more reddish in tint, the submarginal 
band black.

Aciloa superba orientalis, subsp. n. 
This race differs from the figure given by Strand in Seitz, 
Grossschmett. Erde, vol. vi. p. 11, pl. v.@ (1913), in having 
the fore wing considerably darker. Strand’s figure shows a 
discal area pale yellow; in the new race this area is dark 
plumbeous grey and corresponds to the colour of the sub- 
basal area of Strand’s figure. The subapical spots are not 
of equal size, the lower being twice that of the upper; the 
ellow band of hind wing is narrower and the marginal spots 
smaller and well separated. Strand does not figure the 
underside, and his description (Joc. cit. p. 12) is very short ; 
I therefore give a detailed description of the new race :— 
Fore wing: basal third orange-brown 5 a large costal black 
atch at end of cell, subbasal black patch on vein 2 ; median 
band yellow, becoming orange towards costa, apical area dark 
brown, subapical pale spots as above; a submarginal black 
band, commencing on inner margin and extending or gradu- 
owing to a point to vein 6; this band inwardly 
ally narr 
and and outwardly with orange 
edged with narrow orange b 
patches. 
Hind wing yellowish white, 
brown border ; submarginal spots as above, but 
black patch at anal angle; obscure reddish-brown patch on 
discal area extending from costa to cell.
