new Eastern Lepidoptera. 63 



the antennse ; a transverse black line beliincl tlie neck, three 

 longitudinal black lines running- down from it on the thorax ; 

 abdomen with five thin segmental black bands, tlie extremity 

 shot with metallic green. Wings hyaline, with the veins 

 black : tore wings with tlie base yellow, the costal line black, 

 the space between the costal lino and subcostal vein yellow, 

 and the basal half of the hinder margin smeared with dull 

 yellow, and some yellow irrorations here and there on all the 

 veins ; a black bar across the intcrno-median interspace a 

 little before the middle, a thin black band on the outer margin, 

 thickened into a square spot on the extremities of veins 2 and 

 3, and expanding at the apex, tlie space between veins 5 and 6 

 filled up with black, though in some specimens this band 

 does not quite extend to the outer margin : hind wings with 

 some yellow at the base and along the abdominal margin ; 

 the costa and outer margins with a thin black band, ex- 

 panding into a spot below vein 2, but not at the apex : legs 

 black, tarsi with the upper half whitish. 



Expanse of wings, ^ 1^^, ? 1/^ inch. 



Kiiasia Hills ; many examples of both sexes. 



There are two examples in the B. M. from the Khasia 

 Hills with S.fervida, Walker, from Moulmein, but it is not 

 fervida ; that species has no black bar in the interno-mediaa 

 interspace of the fore wings and the space between veins 5 

 and 6 is quite clear, and there are many other differences. 

 I have before me seventeen examples, and all of thorn are 

 constant in tlie characters given above. 



Family Deilemeridaa.
