286 Mr. O. E. Jaxson's remarlcs on Butterflies. 



Menetries is widely distinct from the insect usually called P. 

 venata in collections ; I have seen a specimen from N. China 

 in Dr. Staudinger's Collection. 



19. Pamphila sylvatica, Bremer (No. 119a). 



20. FampMla leonina, n. sp. (No. 119). 



Bright fulvous, with black veins and moderately broad 

 purplish-broAvn outer borders (narrower than in the preceding 

 species) ; primaries Avith a slender oblique linear black brand ; 

 secondaries with the basal area and abdominal border dusky ; 

 wings below clearer than above, Avith black veins and linear 

 black margin ; primaries with the base (excepting ujjou the 

 costa and the brand) as above black ; legs and front of palpi 

 yellow, hinder part of palpi and venter white. Exj^ause of 

 wings 1 inch 8 lines. 



This species is allied to P. sylvatica, but markedly distinct ; 

 it is frequently mistaken for the P. vmata of Bremer, but (as 

 I belieA'e) simply because it has black veins ; in the form of its 

 wings it is totally dissimilar.
