Genera and Sj)ecies of PyvaViJix. 147 



this second ocellus is a costal half-ring, followed by a smaller 

 one, and some black subapical markings ; second line at two 

 thirds forms an irregularly waved sinus outwards, then is 

 curved inwards to beneath the discocellular, and ends on inner 

 margin nearly in middle ; hind marginal area, except just 

 beyond this line, suffused with fuscous ; a row of small black 

 dots along hind margin ; cilia pale, with two dark lines. 

 Hind wings like fore wings, but without first line and ocellus. 

 Head, thorax, and abdomen ochreous mixed with fuscous; 

 basal segments of abdomen paler, the second with a blackish 

 ring. Palpi dark fuscous ; legs pale ochreous. Underside 

 like upper, but somewhat duller ; hind wings with an addi- 

 tional line from inner margin within the submarginal. The 

 female is paler, more smoothly scaled, the suffusion being 

 ochreous rather than fuscous, and the ocelli and lines are 

 darker and more distinct. 



Expanse of wings 22 millim. 



One male, one female, from the Khasias. 



Genus Pleonectusa, Led. 



Pleonectusa pallidalis, sp. n. 



Fore wings pale silky ochreous, finely dusted with sandy ; 

 costa brown close to base ; lines pale fuscous, first near base, 

 very obscure, followed by a minute dark dot in cell ; disco- 

 cellular spot oblong, brown, edged outwardly with paler; 

 exterior line curved outwards from three fourths of costa to 

 three fourths of inner margin ; a fine dark marginal line and 

 a thicker basal line to the fringes, which are quite pale 

 ochreous. Hind wing the same, with exterior line only. 

 Head, thorax, and abdomen all sandy ochreous. Underside 

 paler and duller. 



Expanse of wings 24 millim. 



One male from the Khasias. 



This species is very decidedly paler, more ochreous, than 

 adnn'xtalis, Wlk. There are in the British Museum collection 

 four specimens from North-west India placed under admixtalis 

 which approach the present species in coloration, and may 

 belong to it ; but these have the two marginal lines and the 

 costa of fore wings more strongly marked. 



Pleonectusa subpurpurescens, sp. n. 



Fore wings dull dark brown, with a slight purple tint ; a 

 darker discal spot and slightly curved exterior line at three 

 fourths; fringe unicolorous. Hind wings rather paler, bronzy
