central belt relieved by a whitish border ; primaries without the 

 white spot ; secondaries with an ill-defined dusky discal belt ; fringe 

 white. Expanse 1 inch 3 lines. 



102. Remigia disseverans, Walker, Lep. Het. xiv. p. 1495 

 (1857). 



This species is identical with R. persubtilis of Walker, and allied 

 to his Ophiusa delinquens. 



103. RlIESCIPHA ELEGANS, n. Sp. 



Allied to R. servia, but with narrower wings, the palpi much 

 more slender ; the primaries with less distinctly sinuated margin ; a 

 small white dot on lower median interspace close to the margin ; no 

 yellow spots ; secondaries pale reddish instead of smoky brown, the 

 base and costal area white ; thorax burnt-sienna red like the prima- 

 ries ; abdomen very pale brown, almost white : wings below much 

 whiter than in R. servia ; body below snow-white, palpi and tibiae 

 of anterior and middle pairs of legs brown. Expanse 1 inch 7 lines. 



I find that the genus Rhescipha is most nearly allied to Tetra- 

 tocera.

This species is certainly nearer to Azazia than to Thermesia, with 

 which genus Walker placed it. 



The following genus has been a puzzle to me ; but it appears to 

 be more nearly allied to Euclidia than to any thing else. 



Calliscotus, n. gen. 



Form and general structure of Euclidia, but the body less robust, 

 the palpi shorter, with very short terminal joint, porrect ; abdomen 

 shorter ; primaries comparatively longer; subcostal branches of 

 secondaries emitted from a footstalk ; discocellulars concave but 

 very oblique. Type C. boweyi. 



106. Calliscotus bowreyi, n. sp. 



Primaries pale brown, crossed by numerous irregularly dentate- 

 sinuate black lines; a broad dark-brown subbasal belt, beyond 

 which are two large patches a little, paler than the ground-colour, 

 outlined in black ; in the middle of the upper one is a small ocellus, 

 representing the reniform spot, and pale brown edged with black 

 and encircled by a yellowish iris ; a few scattered white scales on 

 the external area; subapical area dusky; a dentate-sinuate pale 

 line, white, and followed by triangular black spots between the veins ; 

 an interrupted black marginal line : secondaries fuliginous brown, 

 with dusky external border ; a dark angulated discal stripe and a 

 blackish anal spot: body whity brown. Wings below whity brown,
