Species of Eastern Lepidoptern. 7 



reddisli orange on the lower and outer portions ; a dark brown 

 discal square mark divided by vein 4 ; a brown band from 

 the hinder margin at two thirds, which runs straight up 

 outside the mark, and includes a row of black and white 

 minute points, and then bends on to the outer margin below 

 the apex ; the space between this band and the mai-gin 

 brownish, the hinder margin black : hind wings blackish 

 brown, pale and tinged with ochreous towards the abdominal 

 margin ; cilia of both wings ochreous, with a grey inner band ; 

 black marginal dots on both wings. 



Expanse of wings 1 j*-, inch. 



Cherra Punji. Three examples. 



Xanthoptera nigridia^ sp. n. 

 Xanthoptera nigridia, Swinh. MS. ; Hampson, I. c. 



$ . Dark pink-brown : fore wings with the orbicular and 

 reniform large and pale ; a black square mark in the disk, as 

 in the last species, but very indistinct ; the outer band from 

 just below the apex running into the black patch, and is there 

 lost in the rich black suffusion which covers all the outer 

 and lower portions of the wings ; a row of discal, indistinct, 

 very minute, white points ; cilia crenulate : hind wings dark 

 brown, nearly black, and fairly uniform in colour ; cilia with 

 a pale basal line, then brown with ochreous ends. 



? . Ochreous grey, suffused in parts with brown, with the 

 black discal patch and a brown band running through it to 

 the hinder margin distinct ; cilia crenulate as in the male : 

 hind wings ochreous brown, paling towards the base, with 

 black marginal points. 



Expanse of wings 1^ inch. 



Cherra Punji. One pair. 



The markings much resemble those in X. magna ; the 

 examples, however, are perfectly fresh and in good condition, 

 and the crenulated cilia of this species in both sexes appears 

 to be very distinctive, and in this genus many otherwise 

 totally different species have very similar markings.

(J . Antennaj and palpi black : thorax and fore wings 

 reddish brown, the latter with a small patch of white suffu-
