This insect, described from a sini^lo example, seems to be 

 intermediate between cruentata and kammeri. 

 Expanse 46 mm. 

 Uab. Warmasin, 6000 feet, November and December. 



Delias caroli, sp. n. (PI. VII. fig. 1.) 



^ . Head, leg^, palpi, and antennae black ; thorax black, 

 with black hairs beneath and bluish-white hairs above; abdo- 

 men mostly white, with bluish-white hairs at base and at base 

 of hind wings. 



Upperside : fore win<TS white, with narrow black costal 

 border and large apical patch bounded by end of cell and 

 continuing obliquely to angle. 



Hind wings white, with undefined black border tapering 

 from costa to angle ; fringes black. 



Underside : fore wings black, with narrow white band 

 along the inner margin, and four apical white spots fading 

 into a narrow white subterminal line. 



Hind wings black, with lenticular scarlet basal patch 

 ending in a white dot on costa ; a single minute red spot at 

 end of cell near to nervure 5 ; a narrow scarlet subterminal 

 band from costa to angle, split up by the black nervures, eacii 

 surrounded by a few white scales ; a patch of white scattered 

 scales between the angle and the base. 



The female is similar, but the white is slightly suffused 

 with yellow, and the upperside of the abdomen is yellow, 

 while the black margin of the hind wing is wider. 



Near to hornemanni, but differs in the position and form 

 of the red band on the hind wings. 



Expanse 58 mm. 



Hab. Warmasin, 6000 feet, November and December. 



Delias I'othscJiildi, sp. n. (PI. VII. figs. 2 & 6.) 



rj . Very close to microsticta ; the male differs in the 

 white of the upperside being yellower, the black border of 

 the hind wings much wider. 



On the underside of the hind wings the conspicuous red 

 basal patch is replaced by yellow, the orange spots on the 

 margin are not present, and the three oblique yellow streaks 

 and the yellow spot at the angle are also absent. 



Expanse 52 mm. 



Hab. Momi, 4000 feet, November and December. 



The female of the above corresponds with a form of female 

 of microsticta sent home by Mr. Meek, but 1 believe 

 undescribed, differing from this very much as the male differs.
