more elongate; the submarginal row of spots of A. melusine 

 are only represented by four spots near the apex. 



It is a larger insect than A. melusine, but very close to it. 



Expanse of wings 2 j inches. 



Hoi. Fergusson Island (Meek). 



Cupha fumosa . 



. Upperside : both wings fuliginous dark brown, the cells 

 and basal two thirds of the wings paler fuliginous brown ; 

 the anterior wings are crossed from the middle median nervule 

 to the inner margin at one third from the outer margin by 

 three ill-defined bright brown spots placed under each other 

 between the veins. Posterior wings crossed beyond the cell 

 by a similar row of spots, outside which is a row of very 

 indistinct dark brown spots. 



Underside with the basal three fourths paler fuliginous 

 brown, without any transverse lines or markings ; the outer 

 fourth is darker purplish brown, the inner side of the outer 

 fourth is crossed from near the costal to near the inner 

 margin by a row of orange-brown spots, centred with black 

 and nearly surrounded by pale violaceous brown ; a pale sub- 

 marginal dark line crowned by pale violaceous-brown lunules. 



Expanse of wings 2 inches.

Doleschallia Comrii, Godm. & Salv. 



< . Upperside : both wings resemble D. dascylus , Godm. & 

 Salv., in colour, but the basal third of each wing is darker 

 chocolate-brown. Anterior wings with a row of spots across 

 the disk arranged as in D. dascylus -, the spots are eight in 

 number, the two nearest the costal margin white and small ; 

 the next four spots are pale blue centred with white, the 

 fourth spot being larger than the third; the fifth spot is very 

 large and elongated on the outer and inner sides, the latter 

 extending as far as the cell; the fifth spot is abbreviated 

 inwardly, but is wider than the fourth ; the seventh and 

 eighth spots are much smaller and are situate further from the 

 margin. 



Underside scarcely distinguishable from D. dascylus. 



Expanse of wings 8J inches.

The presence of both sexes of this species in the same 

 collection enables me to describe the male of D. Comriij 

 hitherto, I believe, undescribed. The female specimens in 

 Mr. Meek's collection agree almost exactly with the figure
