Descriptions of the new Species. 

 Neope niphonica, sp. n. 



Allied to N. GaschkevitcMij rather smaller and sliorter in 

 wing ; above considerably darker, with orange, instead of 

 white fringe. Primaries below yellower, all the markings 

 thicker and darker, the discoidal markings more uniform, the 

 third being less zigzag or 3-shaped : secondaries with the 

 discal ocelli smaller and far more uniform in size ; the base, 

 abdominal area, subbasal spots, central belt, and external area 

 filled in with blackish olivaceous ; the external area washed 

 with lilac ; the pale band just in front of the ocelli spotted 

 with brown and tinted with lilacine below the angle. Ex- 

 panse of wings 2 inches 7-8 lines. 



The natural position for this species is between N. Gasch- 

 kevitcMi and N. agrestis. We have eight males and one 

 female, which I have compared with twelve N. Gaschkevitchii, 

 and find the differences constant. 



Lethe consanguis^ sp. n. 



Allied to L. Whitelgi, similar on the upper surface, but 

 differing below in the outer edge of the broad central belt of 

 primaries being more transverse, obliquely excised on the 

 costa, very slightly zigzag on the second median interspace,
