very narrow, often inten'upted, sometimes almost linear ; the 

 discal .series of wliitc decreasing spots well marked : secon- 

 daries reddish oehreous, similar to E. commumcans] thorax 

 bhick ; head and tegula3 spotted with white ; abdomen bright 

 ochre-yellow, banded with black. 



Expanse of wings 2 inches 10 lines to 3 inches. 



Silhet {Soioerhy (fc Stainsforth), Type, B.M. 



We have eight examples of this species ; although rather 

 variable as regards the transverse bands of primaries, they 

 are all so similar that I have no doubt they represent but one 

 species. 



7. Eusemia villicoides^ n. sp. PI. XIII. fig. 2. 



Allied to E. vetula, but with the sulphur-yellow spots of 

 primaries enormously enlarged, the three on basal area uniting 

 into one patch, enclosing two black spots (the upper one 

 romided within cell, the lower irregular, sometimes uniting 

 with the black at base) ; the discal yellow spots placed one 

 above the other and subquadrate ; submarginal spots as usual, 

 the one at anal angle rather larger ; base streaked with plum- 

 baginous, an irregular discal line of the same colom* : secon- 

 daries orange instead of red ; the internal fasciole broken up 

 into two rounded black spots ; two large subapical yellow 

 spots upon the black margin : thorax broad and black, ptery- 

 godes sulphur-yellow : abdomen orange, transversely ban-ed 

 Avith grey : wings below paler than above, the yellow spots 

 still larger, so that almost the entire basal half of primaries 

 is pale yellow ; secondaries with four elongated apical and 

 two small submarginal pale yellow spots. 



Expanse of wings 2 inches 6 lines. 



Hakodadi [Whitely). Two specimens, B.M. 



8. Eusemia superha, n. sp. PI. XIII. fig. 3. 



Allied to E. eupTiemia, much larger. Primaries with four 

 white dots at the base of costa; two ochreous dots at base of cell ; 

 a small ochfeous spot and a plumbaginous dot at base of 

 intenio-median interspace, and an ochreous interno-basal dot ; 

 four large ochreous spots on basal area, one just before middle 

 of cell, a second, larger, at end of cell, a third, elongated, 

 oblique, crossing the middle of the internal nervure, a fourth, 

 subquadrate, below base of first median branch ; an ochreous 

 spot at external angle ; a large, ochreous subapical blotch ; 

 several plumbaginous streaks between the ochreous spots ; 

 secondaries as in E. eupliemia : thorax black, spotted in front 

 with white : abdomen orange, banded Avith black : male with
