vermicularia, the build rather more compact. In the tbrewiug SU' is free, 11' 

 connate, M' connate ; in the hindwing G is closely ajjproximated to the cell to 

 almost one-half, SC- well stalked, M' well stalked. 



66. Prasinocyma geminata spec. nov. 



c??, 29-34 mm. Face and head green, extremely narrowly white between 

 the antennae. Palpus with third joint in c? rather short, in ? quite moderate ; 

 red above, white beneath. Antennal shaft whitish ; pectinations in cj moderately 

 long, ochreous. Thorax and abdomen dorsally green, the latter with small white 

 spots and white anal extremity. Fore and middle legs crimson above and on 

 inner side ; hindleg white, hindtibia in d somewhat dilated, with slender pencil. 



Foreaing very broad ; SC free (in one wing of one example exceptionally 

 running into C), R' not or scarcely stalked, M' separate; very pale blue-green, so 

 densely marked with bright green as to leave only fine spots and strignlation of 

 the pale colour (similar to puk-hraria Swinli.) ; costal edge narrowly pink, becoming 



more ochreous towards apex ; discal dot small, black ; no other markings. 



Hindwing ample, apex somewhat squared, termen bluntly elbowed at R', M' 

 separate at origin from R^ ; concolorons with forewing ; a small black discal spot 

 on DC, a more elongate green, posteriorly black-marked one on DC-. Underside 

 paler, unmarked ; costal edge of forewing as above.

 Anderson), all in coll. Brit. Mus. ; the type (S) dated May 3. Also a S from 

 the same locality. May, in coll. Bethune-Baker. 



Differs from tieavei Front, which also has a double discal spot on the hindwing, 

 in its much brighter, yellower-green colour, pink costal edge of forewing, much 

 shorter palpus, etc. 



67. Prasinocyma (?) debilis spec. nov. 



(? ?, 25-28 mm. Head and face green, narrowly white between the antennae. 

 Palpus green above, whitish beneath. Antennal shaft white, pectinations in 6 

 strong and coarse, much as in Thalassodes. Thorax and abdomen green above, 

 whiti.sh beneath, abdomen dorsally with small white spots at ends of segments. 

 (J hindtibia with iiair-pencil. 



Wings green, smoothly scaled. Forewing with extreme costal edge 



yellowish ; a dentate antemedian white line which does not reach costal margin, 

 its deepest tooth pointing distad on the snbmedian fold ; postmedian also dentate, 

 l)Ut scarcely traeealile except as a row of white dots on tlic veins, forming an 

 outward cnrve through most of its length, incurved beiiind M- ; a small dark 



green cell-spot ; terminal line slightly darkened ; fringe concolorons. Ilindwiiig 



similar, without first line. 



Under-snrface nearly uniform whitish green, with costal edge of forewing 

 yellow ; only in the d with costal part of forewing somewhat greener than 

 the rest.

 of dots, more approximated to termen and as a rule less connected into a line,
