cJ. We have not seen this species. The antennae of the type, judging from 

 figure, are doubtless those of another Sphingid glued on ; they are much too long. 

 The hindtibia is stated to have one weak, short spur, which is of course a mistake. 

 The species is apparently related to dohnii, from which it differs inter alia in the 

 conspicuous black stigmata of fore- and hindwing and the bright brick-rt-d ujjper- 

 side of the hindwing, and comes very close to terraneu, if it is not the same.

257. Smerinthulus dohrni spec. nov. (PI. II. f. 5, i). 



S- Body above dark ferruginous, pronotum darker, a large anterior patsh on 

 mesothoracic tegula pale, golden behind, some golden scales on metauotum, ai)ex 

 of second and seventh abdominal tergites and a lateral spot each at apex of fifth 

 and sixth tergites also golden ; a series of conspicuous pale golden mesial apical 

 spots on segments 3 to 0. Underside somewhat paler than upper, abdomen with 

 pale golden side-dots. 



Wings, upijerside. Forewing like body ; costal edge pale for the greater 



jiart : lines all transverse ; see figure. Hindwing brown-black, the ferruginous 



colour appearing at abdominal margin and anal angle, costal area buft'-pink. 



Underside clayish tawny ochraceous, speckled with brown ; a brown line 

 lieginning at costa of forewing midway between subcostal fork and apex and 

 running straight to anal angle of hindwing, being very little curved on forewing 

 and not at all on hindwing ; it crosses M' of hindwing halfway from cell to distal 

 margin; a trace of a brown line on forewing just outside cell; a distinct S-sluiped 

 line on hindwing crossing M at base of M-. 



Not dissected.
