I860.] MR. A. G. BUTLER ON NEW EXOTIC BUTTERFLIES. 41 



Allied to Dcedalma dorcete, Hewits., but very distinct, the hind 

 wing being totally unlike in outline, the front wing above having 

 only one row of spots ; below, the lower ocelli of the front wings are 

 absent, and replaced by large greenish oblong spots ; the markings 

 of the hind wings are also very dissimilar. 



4. Debis Isabella ( d ), sp. n. (PL III. fig. 4.) 



Upperside rich brown ; outer margin of hind wings ferruginous, 

 anal portion submargiuated with two black lunules ; a submarginal 

 row of six black spots, indistinct at the apex and anal angle. Body 

 brown ; palpi ochreous ; antennae ferruginous, with orange tips. 



Underside — front wings grey, glossed with violaceous ; base, a 

 transverse central band, and a triangular dash tapering from the 

 costa near the apex deeper grey ; outer margin clouded with ochre- 

 ous ; a transverse brown line near the base ; a very irregular more 

 indistinct brown line beyond the end of the cell ; outer margin with 

 two marginal grey lines, wavy towards the apex ; a submarginal row 

 of six pale grey ocelli, the uppermost one very indistinct. Hind 

 wings grey, clouded with brown and ochreous ; a broad irregular 

 central band pale ochreous above, below grey inwardly, brown out- 

 wardly, margined by a rich-brown line on each side ; a small brown 

 dash at the end of the cell ; outer margin with three marginal brown 

 lines ; a submarginal row of six large ocellate spots bright ochreous, 

 with large black centres irrorated with silver. Body greyish ochreous. 



Expanse of wing 2f inches. 



Hab. Philippine Islands. 



Closely allied to Debis chandica ( <S ), Moore (E. Indies) ; it differs 

 from it as follows : — Front wings much more elongate ; outer margin 

 more distinctly emarginate, forming an angle at the fold between the 

 second and third median branches. Hind wings more elongate ; the 

 central caudate projection more produced, the outer margin more 

 deeply sinuated. On the upperside, hind wings, outer margin richly 

 suffused with reddish ferruginous, upon which the submarginal spots 

 are distinctly visible ; fringe of the wings dark ; antenna; ferruginous. 

 On the underside, front wings, central line much more irregular and 

 more indistinct ; both the marginal lines of the outer margin waved 

 near the apex. Hind wings, central band much more regular in out- 

 line, not so much produced at the centre of its lower edge, not so 

 broad near the costa, but broader below the median nervure than in 

 D. chandica ; submarginal ocelli smaller and further apart. 



5. Het^era pellucida, sp. n. (PI. III. fig. 5.) 

 H. phelis, Boisd. MS. 



Upperside transparent, iridescent. Front wings with the margins, 

 nervures, and an oblicpie streak at the anal angle brown. Hind wings 

 with the marginal edges, nervures, outer margin, and a submarginal 

 irregular band adjoining it brown ; a large ocellus at the apex black, 

 glossed with ultramarine blue, pupillated with white and encircled 

 with orange ; two small circular white spots near the hind margin
