ANISODES, Giien. 

 Anisodes aimiilifera. (Plate CXXXVI. fig. 10.) 



Closely resembling A. metasjnlata of Venezuela, but with niuuli sliorter palpi ; iiiucli 

 less red, of a dull rosy clay-colour; tbe front of thorax and costa of primaries lilacine ; edge 

 of costa golden orange; discocellular spot larger; the discal greyish transverse streak 

 replaced by an irregular zigzag grey line, the spots beyond it larger and less black ; marginal 

 spots larger : secondaries with the discocellular spot smaller; otherwise differing as in the 

 primaries. Under surface of both species almost identical. Expanse of wings 37 millim. 



Dharmsala ; at sugar in October. 



This species should stand between A. metaspilata and A. carnearia of Ceylon.

EOIS, Hiihi. 

 Eois lacteipennis. (Plate CXXXVI. fig. 11.) 



Primaries sericeous cream-whitishj faintly irrorated with I'osc-colour ; a rosy or lilac 

 band, bounded internally by a carmine or purple-edged, irregularly sigmoidal, whitish stripe, 

 from external angle to lower radial vein : secondaries cream-whitish, densely irrorated, 

 excepting on outer margin and fringe, with blood-red, shading into lilac towards outer margin ;

Allied to E. ostrbia of Europe. 



Eois protensa. (Plate CXXXVI. fig. 12.) 



S . Intermediate between E. ostrina of Europe and E. jaklma of Japan ; but smaller 

 than either ; it differs from E. jakiina in its more produced primaries, paler colouring, 

 narrower costal border to the primai'ies, in the middle line of these wings being more central, 

 passing through the discocellular litura, which is much more strongly marked, the sub- 

 marginal line inaugled towards the costa, less irregular in other respects, much darker; the
