d*. Hyperythra swinhoei, Butler, Ami. & Mag. Nat, Hist. ser. 5,

$. " Mhow, February 1882; takeu also. at Depalpore late in 

 November ; there are two examples in my collection from Solun, 

 month not marked, and one from Umballa taken in April 



" Corresponds with my Kurracbee examples of Hyperythra phan- 

 tasma, named by you in P. Z. S. May 1881, p. 615, except as to 

 shade of ground-colour of wings; but one of the Solun examples is 

 identically the same as the Kurrachee ones." — 'C. 8. 



The example sent is of a brownish flesh-tiut ; it is darker and more 

 strongly marked than the males hitherto received ; it has the 

 characteristic subapical black spots on the secondaries strongly de- 

 fined ; in H. phantasma, an almost white species, of which I only 

 know the female, these spots are entirely absent. A male (in the 

 Museum collection) appears to me to be unquestionably a dark form 

 of H. swinhoei ; it is of the same colour as the female now sent ; 

 and was taken by my sister, Dr. F. Butler, at Jubbulpore. 



124. Nemoria carnifrons, sp. n. 



Pale opaque emerald-green ; wings crossed beyond the middle by 

 a straight white stripe ; fringe whitish ; primaries with the costa 

 white; vertex of head pale buff; frons reddish brown; collar and 

 shoulders white, thorax and tegulae green ; abdomen white : wings 

 below paler than above ; body below white ; anterior coxae and 

 femora reddish. Expanse of wings 24 mm. 



" Mhow, in September 1881, common here during that mouth. I 

 have also specimens from Solun taken in June." — C. S.

"Kurrachee, September 1879; one taken there in May, and 

 three in December." — C. S. 



126. Thalassodes, sp.

 defined reddish lines ; the central baud on these wiugs marked with
