2. Gerydus? Plautus. 



Papilio (H. R.) Plautus, Fabricius, " alls dentatis, fuscis, supra 

 immaculatis, subtus lineolis transversis, atris albisque : habitat in 

 Indiis." 



Fabricius, Ent. Syst. iii. p. 291. n. 113 (1793). 



In the * Genera of Diurnal Lepidoptera ' this species is referred 

 with doubt to the genus Methone (Erycinidce). It may be a species 

 of Gerydus ; but it differs from any species in the British-Museum 

 collection. 



Genus 5. PITHECOPS, Horsfield, 

 Cat. Lepid. pi. 1. fig. 2 (1828). 



1. Pithecops Hylax. 



Papilio (P. II.) Hylax, Fabricivs, " alis integerrimis, supra fuscis, 

 immaculatis ; subtus cinereis, nigro punctatis ; habitat in India

 Java. (In the Horsfield Cabinet) B.M, 



This is not the species figured as P. Hylax by Donovan (Ins. Ind. 

 pi. 46. fig. 2) ; the latter does not agree with the Fabrician descrip- 

 tion, " Alaa subtus cinereas, punctis nigris, postice arcubus fuscis." 

 The P. Hylax of Mr. Doubleday's list is also distinct, being more 

 robust, marked above with white and with more brown lines below ; 

 it may stand as P. Zalmora, sp. nov.

 anticis apice, posticis macula punctisque marginalibus nigris : ha-
