3. Pseudonympha Cowani, sp. n. 



Allied to the preceding, but considerably larger; above 

 with a white subapical spot replacing the ordinary subapical 

 ocellus, and the secondaries with two ocelli as in P. ankova ; 

 the large ocellus of primaries and the dark submarginal lines 

 as in the allied species. Under surface of primaries similar 

 to P. ankova, but with the outer border creamy white, with 

 dark brown submarginal and marginal lines, a cream- 

 coloured subapical patch followed by two or three snow-white 

 dots : secondaries cream-coloured, the central belt broadly 

 zigzag ; both it, the basal, and abdominal areas mottled with 

 brown ; three large ocelli, one at costa near apex, the others 

 on the median interspaces ; two slightly undulated submar- 

 ginal lines and the fringe brown. Expanse of wings 1 inch 

 8-9 lines. 



4. Pseudonympha ankova. 



Myodesis ankova, Ward, Ent. Month. Mag. vii. p. 31 (1870) ; Air. 

 Lep. p. 15, pi. 12. figs. 3, 4 (1874). 



5. Pseudonympha ihitina. 



Mycaksis ihitina, Ward, Ent. Month. Mag. x. p. GO (1873). 



A slight variety with unusually distinct markings on the 

 under surface. 



6. Pseudonympha turbata, sp. n. 



Wings above fuliginous brown : primaries with two large 

 white-pupilled and red-zoned black ocelli upon the disk, the 

 lower one twice the size of the upper ; fringe grey : secon- 

 daries with three ocelli, two of medium size on the median 

 interspaces, and the third very small upon the radial inter- 

 spaces ; a feebly indicated submarginal dusky line ; fringe 

 grey. Wings below olivaceous brown, indistinctly mottled 

 with darker lines : primaries with four abbreviated ferrugi- 

 nous streaks across the discoidal cell, the second of these 

 streaks extending slightly below the cell ; a ferruginous an- 

 gulated stripe beyond the cell, its lower portion broadly arched, 

 so as to bound the inner edge of the large inferior ocellus ; the 

 latter also has a ferruginous external border ; the subapical 

 ocellus extremely small, with scarcely a trace of the red zone 

 of the upper surface ; a subapical dusky patch upon the outer 

 margin : secondaries with the disk slightly lilacine ; the mar- 

 gins of the ordinary belt irregularly angulated somewhat as 

 in P. ankova, the external border dark brown at apex; a 

 discal series of six minute spots, the first punctiform and 

 black, the three following punctiform but white, the last two
