Genus Mycalesis, Hiibner. 



0. }ri/cahs{s medus. 

 Pttpilio medium, Fabricius, Syst. Ent. p. 488 (l77o). 

 Botli sexes. 



10. }rycalesis daidis. 

 Mijcalesk daidis. Ilewitson, Exot. Butt. iii. Myc. pi. 4. fig. 22 (1802). 

 One female. 



11. Mijcalesis jJagranft^ n. sp. 



Allied to M. terminus, from which it ditiers above in having 

 the primaries much more dee})l3^ coloured, the oehraceous 

 patch surrounding the infei'ior ocellus much smaller, the outer 

 border less iiTCgular ; secondaries greyish brown, the ocelli 

 and marginal lines as in ^f. teriitinus : wings below much 

 more grey in colom-ing, the ocelli slightly larger, bounded 

 within by greyish instead of clear pale buff; the submarginal 

 lines less undulated, the outer line closer to the margin and 

 consequently further from the inner line. Expanse of wings 

 2 inches. 



One female. 



Although this species upon the upper surface merely looks 

 like a deeply coloured variation of M. terminus, the grey 

 coloration of the under surface with the differently disposed 

 submarginal lines at once decide it to be a distinct species. 



Subfamily Ntmphalinje, Bates. 

 Genus Neptls, Fabricius. 



12. Neptis Brebissonii? 



Limenitis Brebissonii, Boisduval, Voy. de I'Astrol. L^p. p. 132. n. 2 

 (1832> 



One male. 



The only point in which this differs from the description is 

 in that the upper discal white patch of primaries is divided 

 into two spots as in N. venilia; the outer series of white spots 

 on the under surface of secondaries is also obsolete ; but this is 

 certainly a male character ; the female would have them well- 

 defined as in N. venilia. 



Genus Diadema, Boisduval. 



13. Diadema nerina. 

 Pupilio neriiia, Fabricius, Syst. Ent. iii. 1, p. 509 (1775). 

 One male, two females.
