Mr. H. Drnce on new Species o/Chalcosiidae. 141 



of both wings broadly black, the underside the same as above ; 

 the head and thorax black, the collar, tegulge, and a large 

 spot at the base of the thorax chrome-yellow, the abdomen 

 black banded with chrome-yellow, the anus black, antennas 

 and legs black. 



Expanse 2 inches. 



Hab. Sumatra. 



This species is very distinct from any known to me. 



Pompelon pJrilippensis, sp. n. 



Primaries dark brown, shot with bright dark blue along 

 the costal margin and at the apex, the same as in Pompelon 

 ampliatum, Butler. Secondaries dark brown, with a large 

 purplish-blue patch at the apex, somewhat the same as in 

 Pompelon marginator, Guer., but shading off to silky white 

 on the costal margin. On the underside this species closely 

 resembles P. marginator, but has the veins more distinctly 

 marked with blue-green. The head and antennae black, the 

 collar bright carmine, the tegulaa deep blue ; the thorax 

 and the upperside of the abdomen deep black ; the underside 

 of the thorax and the abdomen bright carmine, the latter 

 banded with black ; the anus bright carmine, the legs blue- 

 black. 



Expanse 3 to 3^ inches. 



Hab. Philippine Islands, Mindanao. 



This species is allied to P. marginator and P. ampliatum, 

 from which it is readily distinguished by the silky white 

 mark near the apex of the secondaries. 



Pompelon anethussa, sp. n. 



Primaries dark brown, the costal margin and the apex 

 shaded with dark blue. Secondaries dark brown, with a 

 large bright blue patch at the apex, which extends partly 

 round the outer margin ; the outer margin from the anal 

 angle to the blue patch near the apex broadly bordered with 

 brownish white. The underside of both wings pale brown, the 

 costal and outer half of the primaries thickly irrorated with 

 green scales. The head, thorax, and upperside of the abdo- 

 men deep black, the anus and underside red. 



Expanse 2\ inches. 



Hab. Malay Peninsula, Province Wellesley. 



This species seems to be allied to P. acrocyanea, De Haan, 

 from which it is at once distinguished by the pale margin to 

 the secondaries, and also to P. valentula, Swinhoe, but it is 

 a much smaller insect than that species.
