at the end of the cell; the secondaries are luteous, margined with pale 

 fawn of the same color as the primaries and with a small round black dot 

 at the end of the cell; upon the underside the primaries are as on the 

 upperside, save that there is an orange basal ray near the costa, and that 

 the inner margin is whitish; the secondaries are bright orange-yellow on 

 the lower side with the outer margin darker than on the upperside. Ex- 

 panse 32 mm. 



SOLOE Walk. 



9. S. bigntta sp. nov. J^.— Allied to 5. trigutta Walk., but without the 

 discal dot on the posterior wing; the primaries are relatively broader and 

 more rounded on the apex, the species is also smaller than S. trigutta; 

 front orange; the thorax and the abdomen are tinged with luteous, and 

 the legs are concolorous; the upperside of the wings is creamy-white; 

 the primaries have two black dots in the cell, one near the middle and 

 one near the end; the outer margin of the secondaries is slightly suffused 

 with gray; on the underside the primaries are heavily clouded with slaty- 

 gray upon the costa and at the apex, and the secondaries have the costal 

 margin near the base slightly washed with yellow; the spot at the end of 

 the cell of the primaries reappears upon the secondaries, and in some 

 specimens there is a faint indication of a discal dot at the end of the cell 

 of the primaries upon the underside. Female like the male. Expanse: 

 (J*, 27 mm. ; 9 , 30 mm. 



This species may be distinguished from its allies by the mark- 

 ings as well as by the opacity of the wings. In ^S". trigutta Walk. 

 and 6". tosola Ploetz, the wings are semi-diaphanous.
