from Siam, and rothschildi, Leech, from China. It more 
resembles the former. 
3. Body as in rothschildt. 
Upperside of fore wing with cell all black or bearing a 
pale streak. The spot at end of cell may or may not be 
joined to the patch in 3. The basal black is not so extended 
as in typical nigrobasalis, but is more so than in_ the 
specimen of that form from the Shan States figured in Nov. 
Zool. v. pl. xvi. fig. 2. The two inner submarginal spots in 
cellules 14, le are either absent or the spot in le only is 
present and the spot in 16 represented by a bluish lunule. 
The subterminal spots are larger than in the allied forms, 
especially so in proportion is the spot in 7; there is a minute 
dot in 8 at the apex. Hind wing with some dark scaling 
at extreme base. ‘he black marginal band is as broad as in 
rothschildi and with an evenly defined edge. ‘The sub- 
terminal spots are a little smaller than in this form and the 
anal lobe is margined with yellow to half or more than half 
its width. 
Underside more resembling typical eudamippus than 
rothschildi. On the hind wing the blue edging of the lunules 
is only faintly marked, the subterminal spots are smaller, and 
the silvery band is broken on the anal lobe by the extended 
yellow.

7. Acca ventlia jobina, subsp. n. 
(Pl. V. figs. 2 3, 3.9.) 
& 2. Approaches pseudovenilia, Fruh., from Dutch New 
Guinea, but the band is broader. On the fore wing the spot 
in the lower median space is smaller than the others, and the 
band is heavily margined with blue distally ; the subapical 
spots are larger and closer together than in pseudovenilia. 
On the hind wing the band narrows anally and is heavily 
margined with blue distally. 
1 ¢,3 2 2 from Jobi. 
A single ? from the island of Mioswar in Geelvink Bay 
may represent another race. It is much larger than other 
forms, the fore wing measuring 31 mm. The band is very 
broad, the spot in 2 on the fore wing measures 7 mm, and on 
the hind wing the band is 6 mm. wide at its middle. It is 
margined with violet-blue, though less heavily than in 
jobina. ‘The subapical spots are very large.
