Indo-Malaijan and Afiican Lepidoptera. 91 



Hasora amhoinensis, nov. 



S ? . Both sexes of a uniform dark olive-brown colour 

 above, without any marlcings ; palpi below and pectus greyish 

 white, thorax and abdomen below with greyish-white hairs : 

 fore wings below with a metallic blue-green broad costal 

 band from the base to one-third from the apex ^ the inner 

 space of the wing dark brown, limited by a transverse pale 

 sliade from the costa to the middle : hind wings with a 

 broad, white, nearly straight discal baud, from the costa near 

 the apex to the anal angle above the large black anal patch ; 

 it is nearly even for two-thirds, then narrows, and slightly 

 enlarges again above the patch, is then broken, and has a 

 wliite spot on the abdominal margin adjoining the black 

 j^atch, and a short thin anteciliar white streak ; the whole of 

 the portion of the wing on the inner side of the band is 

 metallic blue-green, and there are a {e\v blue-green scales 

 outside the band. 



Expanse of wings \^q inch. 



Amboina ; one pair. 



A female is in the B. M. mixed up with H. alexis, Fabr., 

 but its shape is quite different from that of alexis. Watson 

 very properly separates alexis from chromus, Cram., and it is 

 difficult to understand why t!iey are mixed up together in the 

 15. M. collection over the name alexis with other forms into 

 what might be called a real '^ job lot," merely on account of 

 their superficial resemblance to one another. 



Family Plutodidae. 

 Synegia secunda, nov. 



(?, Pale yellow ; palpi orange above, an orange spot on 

 the frons : fore wings with an olive-brown stripe along the 

 costal margin, a black dot at the eud of the cells of both 

 wings ; fore wings with antemedial and postmedial transverse 

 thin bands, continued across the hind wings as subbasal and 

 medial bands; a submarginal line, continued across the 

 upper disc of the hind wings, where it runs into a thick 

 nearly straight band which crosses the disc of the wing from 

 above the anal angle to the outer margin below the apex ; all 

 the bands olive-brown, and tlie spaces between the bands on 

 both wings sparsely irrorated with olive-brown atoms ; black 

 marginal dots on both wings. Underside much paler, no 

 irrorations, but the bands more or less faintly indicated. 



Expanse of wings l^o inch.
