432 IMr. Butler on Butterflies from India. 



Hiipolimnas charyhdis, u. sp. 



Nearly allied to H. holina, rather larger ; the Avliite fascicles 

 on the bright ultramarine patches of the upper surface narrower 

 and more elongated : the white discal spots on the female reduced 

 to dots (excepting two near the costa of primaries); the suli- 

 marginal notched spots and the crescents close to the margin 

 narrower and suffused with brown ; below intermediate in 

 character between H. holina and H. jacintha, the oblique white 

 belt beyond the cell of primaries being distinct, but broken up 

 into spots ; the belt beyond the middle of the secondaries sordid 

 -whitish, with a lirownish tint in the male, and a creamy tint in 

 the female, corresponding with the sub marginal belt in colour; 

 the latter, the undulated whitish marginal stripe and the discal 

 series of pearly white spots (piite as in //. jacintha. Expanse of 

 Avings $ 3 inches 7 lines ; ? 4 inches 2 lines. 



Bombay (Dr, Leith). 



Nearest to D. incommoda in general appearance.

 costa of primaries, on the secondaries decreasing in size toAvards 

 the abdominal margin ; primaries Avith the usual bluish costal 

 spots ; a broad brilliantly shot oblique ultramarine belt beyond 

 the discoidal cell; vmder surface slightly paler, sericeous; the
