26. Gar cms cruentatus, sp. n.

 in colour it is considerably darker, blood-red mottled with

 what different in pattern : wings sericeous grey : primaries 

 with the costal border, including two cuneiform patches of 

 nearly equal size, the subapical fringe and two spots near the 

 base of the second median interspace gamboge-yellow ; sub- 

 costal area, base, and a broad oblique belt (only separated by
