of tlic lower posterior angles of tJie last free ter<2,ite, known 

 as the Julien organs, which were not found in the telmessia. 

 Th<^ figures given {I.e.) by Le Corf show this very clearly. 



E. telmessia in Cyprus is of a richer and darker colora- 

 tion generally than one finds in E. jurtina. In marking 

 both sexes resemble the race hisjndla Hb., of the latter 

 species, but are somewhat smaller. 



The males have an androconial patch of a more defined 

 shape, the tip appearing prominent in outline because the 

 ground-colour of the discal area around it is lighter. The 

 patch itself is brighter and more velvety than in the male 

 of E. jvrtina. Only in one or two examples do the males 

 show a tendency to a submarginal band on the fore-wings. 

 The apical spot is ocellated and occasionally has a small 

 extension at the lower edge, which has become separate 

 in one example as a small black dot. 



The females have more resemblance to the race hispvUa, 

 the disc is never ochre yellow, but a rich foxy-brown instead. 

 The wide submarginal band is always lighter than the 

 discal area and is lighter still around the apical spot, while 

 on the inner margin it has become rjuite evanescent. There 

 is a tendency for this band to break up into blotches, as 

 is the cliaracteristic of the race kiirdistnna Tiiihl. On the 

 hind-wings there is but little development of the band, 

 which is only of a very dull foxy-brown sufficient to 

 differentiate it from the prevailing dusky ground. The 

 apical spot is bipupillate in about 50% of the specimens, 

 the lower pupil being always the smaller and often very 

 small. One or two examples have a slight dot in the 

 interneural space below this. 



The shading of the underside of the hind-wing below 

 in the female is sometimes of a very pleasing arrange- 

 ment of light greys with delicate shades of light orange 

 thrown in.

lupinus in 1901. My specimens included both forms." —

B.M. this is an error. — H.J.T.]
