in R. sabina, Cr. (Pap. Ex. t. 289. f. A-D)'. The spots near the 
apex of the wing are white, not fulvous, and are situated further from 
the costa than in Hombron and Jacquinot’s plate. The specimen is 
not in good condition ; and the examination of more examples may 
prove that the species is really distinct from any of those above 
mentioned. 
13. JUNONIA VELLIDA. 
Papilio vellida, Fab. ; Donov. Ins. N. Holl. t. 25. f. 3. 
A single specimen of this widely ranging species is in the collection. 
14. CETHOSIA OBSCURA. 
Cethosia obscura, Guér. Voy. Coq. Zool. p. 277, t. 15. f. 4 (New 
Ireland). 
Mr. Brown has sent two specimens of this rare species, which we 
believe has not been obtained since the voyage of the ‘Coquille,’ 
when specimens were taken at Port Praslin in New Ireland. 
15, D1ADEMA INEXPECTATA, Sp. 0. 
3g Exp. 3-4. Allied to D. alimena (L.), but differing in the 
much narrower band of blue which traverses both wings, and which 
becomes nearly obsolete as it turns towards the costa of the fore 
wings ; beneath the fore wings are devoid of the blue patch which 
traverses the median nervules, the apex of the wings is darker, and 
an oblique band of spots which passes from the costa to beyond the 
cell is evanescent; the hind wings show only traces of the pale 
transverse band of D. alimena, and the submarginal spots are much 
larger; the basal portion of both wings is deeper red-brown. 
The specimens of the widely ranging D. alimena are all fairly 
constant in their characters; and from them the male specimen in 
Mr. Brown’s collection differs in the above particulars. 
16. DrapEMA UNICOLOR, sp. n. (Plate XXIII. figs 1, 2.) 
3 Exp. 3°6. Above uniform dark brown; the margin of the 
secondaries hardly paler, with a narrow black submarginal line; a 
row of minute bluish spots parallel to the outer margin of both 
wings: beneath slightly paler; three bluish spots in the cell near 
the subcostal nervure, and a distinct row parallel to the outer margin; 
a marginal dark band with a central lighter band surrounds the outer 
margin of both wings. 
Allied to D. perryi, Butl. (P. Z.8. 1875, p. 613, t. 67. f.3), but 
differing in the uniformity of the colouring of the upper surface and 
the reduced size of the submarginal spots of both wings, and other 
characters. 
This species seems to be separable from any yet described. We 
compared it with the type of D. perry, and found that Mr. Brown’s 
specimen differed in several particulars. 
1 The former of the last-named species is distinct from the latter, though 
placed together by Kirby (Cat. Lep. p. 192), as is quite apparent from a com- 
parison of the two sufficiently accurate figures.
