210 Messrs. F. D. Godman and 0. Salvin on neio 



Guadalcanar. Many of those previously obtained are con- 

 tained in this collection ; but we find the following species 

 require names. 



Danais garamantis, sp. n. 



S . Alls anticiB eloagatis, margine externo leviter concavo, posti- 

 carum margine externo fere angulato, dimidio angulo anali 

 proximo fere recto. Alis fuliginoso-nigris : anticis plaga magna 

 discali venis quinque-partita (una parte in cellula inclusa), plaga 

 altera tripartita subapicali, maculis tribus costalibus et sex sub- 

 marginalibus semihyalinis ; posticis plaga mediana venis bene 

 sexpartita et maculis quinque submarginalibus semihyalinis : sub- 

 tus fere ut siipra, posticis macula basali, altera ad medium costse 

 et serie duplici submarginali albis. Exp, 3-5 poll, Angl. 



5 mari similis, anticis magis abbreviatis et posticarum margine 

 externo magis rotundato vix angulato. 



Hah. Aola, Guadalcanar Island ( C. M. Woodford) . 



A distinct species apparently allied to D. Schenki, a com-

Mr. Woodford's collection contains a few specimens of both 

 sexes, all taken on Guadalcanar, 



Acrcea polloma, sp. n. 



A. moluccance affinis, sed alis anticis fere unicoloribus medialiter baud 

 semihyalinis ; posticis plaga pallide sulphurea fascia fusca bipar- 

 tita, parte costali quoque venis quadripartita : subtus maculis 

 anticarum submarginalibus vix obviis, margine externo posticarum 

 multo angustiore facile distinguenda. Exp. 3" 75.
