ground colour and markings. The band on the fore wing may be 

 described as chestnut-brown. Expanse, 1*7 in. 



Hab. Tore; November-December, 1900 (H. B. Rattray). 



Besides the type above described, there are five more speci- 

 mens in Major Rattray's collection, all varying somewhat as 

 regards the chestnut band on the fore wing. One specimen 

 resembles A. delius on both wings as to the reddish chestnut 

 colour ; a second specimen has the chestnut band visible from 

 the costa to the median nervure ; whilst a third melanistic 

 variety has no red band in evidence. They were all collected in 

 the same month, and in the same locality. 



Kallima rattrayi, sp. n. 



Allied to K. rumia, Westw., but the female has no white 

 discal patch on the hind wing, and the oblique band on the fore 

 wing is yellow instead of white. 



(? . Very similar to 7i. rumia in colour and markings ; the mauve 

 band on the fore wing somewhat brighter in colour, the characteristic 

 white spots being nearly obsolete. Under side similar to that of 

 K. rumia. Expanse, 2*3 in. 



$. Fore wing : General colour light brown, the apical area some- 

 what darker, and relieved by two white spots near the apex ; an oblique 

 band of buft"-coloiired spots crossing the wing, and terminating above 

 the first median nervule. Hind wing entirely light brown, the white 

 patch being absent. Under side resembling that of A', rumia, but 

 with light spots on the fore wing slightly smaller. Expanse, 2-6 in.

EUPH^DRA RATTRAYI, Sp. n. 



Allied to E. zampa, Westw., but distinguished by the chestnut 

 patch near the base of the fore wing. 



^ . Fore wing : Ground colour rather darker green than in E. 

 zampa, with an oblique band near the apical area creamy white, broader 

 than in the above-named species ; near the base a deep chestnut-red 

 patch, with a suffusion of the same colour extending between the ner- 

 vules towards the hind margin. Hind wing with the central area red- 

 dish brown, deeper in colour on the subcostal nervules ; hind margin 

 bluish green, relieved by internervular white spots suffused with blue. 

 Under side : General colour of both wings yellowish buff, tinged with 

 green ; the white bands and spots similar to those of E. zampa, with 

 the three whitish spots rather more strongly indicated than in the 

 latter species. Expanse, 2*7 in. 



5 . Scarcely different from that of E. zawpa, the oblique apical 

 band being somewhat broader, the white spot near the posterior angle 

 indicated by a faint bluish line. Under side somewhat more dingy in 

 colour, the apical area having a greenish tint ; all the other white 

 spots and markings strongly pronounced, especially those at the end 

 of the cell of the liind wing. The dark outlines of the white spots on 

 the hind margin less strongly indicated. Expanse, 3-4 in.
