placed under Archerms, Meyricl<, with the type of which, 

 Archernis callixaiitha, Meyr., they are, however, not con- 

 generic. To this genus a third species is now referred 

 provisionally, the type being a female. 



Prophantis? triplagalis, sp. n. 



Fore wings shining, purplish grey ; the costa and a line of 

 marginal dots yellow ; a square, pale yellow, dark-edged 

 spot in middle of cell ; a larger irregularly reniform blotch 

 from costa beyond cell pale yellow, with darker dentate outer 

 edge and a faint yellowish spot or two obliquely below it 

 towards base ; the outer dark edge really representing the 

 postmedian line, which is faintly marked on the cosfa and 

 can be traced to inner margin ; fringe grey, with base darker. 

 Hind wings like fore wings, with no inner spot. Head, 

 thorax, and abdomen rather darker than wings ; palpi dark 

 purple, white beneath ; tongue white ; legs and abdomen 

 beneath white ; fore knees dark brown. Underside of wings 

 duller than upper, with all the markings shown. 



Expanse of wings 30 millim. 



One female from the Khasias. 



Genus Mimoeista, Warr. 

 Mimorista marginalis^ sp. n. 



Fore wings yellow, suffused with fulvous brown ; a dark 

 subcostal streak, becoming fainter towards the postmedian 

 line ; costa above it brownish yellow, brighter yellow beyond 

 the outer line ; the lines thick, purple-brown, first near base, 

 curved and somewhat oblique outwards ; basal area fulvous; 

 a round dark brown spot in cell, with paler centre ; a square 

 brown-edged stigma at end of cell, its centre purple-grey; a 

 darker edged elongated oval stigma beneath the small spot in 

 cell ; a diffuse fuscous suffusion beyond the first line, ex- 

 tended along the median vein ; space between the two cell- 

 spots bright yellow ; postmedian line at three fourths, irregu- 

 larly dentate for first third, then describing a rounded sinus, 

 curving upwards to beneath the discal spot, where it touches 

 a purple spot between the first and second medians, then 

 sinuous and oblique to inner margin before two thirds ; a 

 broad purplish-fuscous marginal band, not quite touching 

 costa, with two curves on its inside and touching outer line 

 at the bottom of the sinus ; the veins slightly paler, and a 

 row of pale dots along hind margin between them ; fringe 

 greyish yellow, with darker interrupted line near base. Hind
