9. Amboina. 
Originally described from a female obtained at Celebes. 
We have a male in the Museum probably from the same col- 
lection.

Liparida. 
63. Artaxa simulans, sp. n. 
A remarkable copy of Ophthalmis lincea from the same 
locality. Primaries black-brown, densely irrorated with black 
scales ; a large ochreous spot at apex: secondaries with the 
basi-abdominal half black and the externo-apical half bright 
orange, the line of demarcation between the two areas being 
elbowed outwardly at the inferior angle of the cell: head, 
antenne, collar, tegule, and prothorax ochreous ; remainder 
of thorax and abdomen black; anal tuft pale testaceous. 
Wings below as above. Expanse of wings 47 millim. 
Amboina. 
This is one of those instances of mimetic assimilation so 
perfect as to catch the eye at the first glance. That the Aga- 
ristid is the species copied cannot be questioned, since it is 
not only a common form, but it belongs to a group which, like 
the allied Zygenide, is evidently distasteful to insect enemies. 
64. Stilpnotia, sp. 
A white species, too much injured to be described, but 
interesting as representing the genus in a locality where it 
would not have been supposed to occur. 
¢. Amboina.
