band of tlie fore wings and its corresponding medial band 

 of the bind wings, together with the discal white band of those 

 wings, are all nearly straight, whereas in retorta the two 

 former are crenulated. 



Expanse of wings 2yo inches. 



Waingapo^ Sumba Island {Doherty). 



12. Sinrama kalaoensis, nov. 



^ . More or less like a male retorta, but the transverse 

 lines are obsolete, the black ring of the ocellus is distorted 

 and not evenly curved, and there is no trace of white in it. 

 It is perhaps nearest to S. fanesta, Butler, but that form is 

 easily distinguishable by its scarlet-crimson palpi and the 

 distinct row of submarginal black spots on the fore wings. 



? . More or less of the pattern of retorta, but is a very 

 peculiarly variegated form : the type specimen looks bleached 

 in parts, but this is not the case ; my two examples from the 

 mainland of Flores are identically the same: the black ring 

 of the ocellus is also much crenulated, and this does not seem 

 to be the case in any other form of this genus. 



Expanse of wings 2 {^ inches.

13. Baniana pannicula, nov. 



^ . Palpi ochreous, brown at the sides ; frons, head, and 

 collar ochreous ; thorax and abdomen dark grey ; a black 

 stripe behind the collar and one on each side of the thorax : 

 fore wings ochreous, minutely irrorated with grey ; a promi- 

 nent black spot at the end of the cell ; a large black square 

 patch in the disk, edged with white on its upper side, out- 

 wardly diffused into the broad blackish brown which occupies 

 the outer third of the wing, this brown palest near outer 

 margin and contains five pale dots in a submarginal row on 

 its upper half ; another large black patch, nearly triangular, 

 with its lower part touching the hinder margin before the 

 middle and ending in a tuft of scales : hind wings pale 

 blackish brown, palest towards base. 



Expanse of wings 1^^ inch. 



Labuan, British N. Borneo. 



Belongs to Hampson^s section II. A ; differs from intorta, 

 Swinh., which I have from Bombay, Karwar, and Burma, 

 chiefly in the prominent black cell-spot and the pale submar- 

 ginal dots of the fore wings, very like unipuncta, Hmpsu., 

 from Natal, but that also has no dots,
