428 COL. C. SWINHOE ON NEW [ Nov. 5, 
margins of fore wings whitish, and with the white subcostal marks 
as on the upperside. 
Expanse of wings 12 inch. 
Hab. Sikhim. One specimen purchased from Mr. Paul Mowis, 
and one received from Mr. Irvine. 
From £. signata, Butler, this differs in its extremely dark colour, 
broader wings, the outer margin of both fore and hind wings being 
even, not sinuous asin L. signata. On the fore wing the antemedial 
diffuse black line is inwardly oblique, this line in EB. signata being 
erect and excurved; there is no duplex medial transverse line, 
which is conspicuous in E. signata. 
MacaRID&. 
GUBARIA SUBALBATARIA, 0. Sp. 
Male. Palpi and antenneze dull ochreous ; head, thorax, and general 
colour of both wings chocolate-grey ; head between antennee ochreous 
yellow, as also is the abdomen, which has a chocolate-grey dorsal 
stripe, broad at the base, and tapering to and terminating at about 
one third from the apex; all the grey portions are powdered with 
white ; in reality the ground-coloration is white, but the chocolate- 
grey irrorations are so dense as only to leave the ground-colour show- 
ing through in places; there is a very broad medial oblique white 
band right across both wings, and this band is also thickly covered 
with grey irrorations, making it look dirty greyish white; the band 
does not quite touch the costa of the fore wings, it has an inner sin- 
uous grey, and a straight outer darker line, this line being sometimes 
inwardly margined with pure white ; a brown lunule at the end of cell 
in fore wings, a broad one at end of cell in hind wings, a costal sub- 
apical angular dark patch on fore wings and one (sometimes two) 
dark distal streaks outside the band on the hind wings; marginal 
line brown ; fringe ochreous grey, interlined. 
Underside: body and legs ochreous, unmarked ; wings with a broad 
band as above, but pure white, space inside the band being also white, 
marked with brownish and ochreous striations, the space outside the 
band dark chocolate-brown, with a whitish subapical spot on fore 
wings, and a whitish marginal patch on hind wings towards anal 
angle, but this patch is wanting in some specimens. 
The female differs from the male in being of dark olivaceous-grey 
colour; the palpi, body below, legs, and abdomen above and at the 
sides are white instead of ochreous, there being merely some ochreous 
colour in the centre of the abdomen below; the antennae are grey 
speckled with white, the central broad stripe across the wings above 
is duller, the outer margin diffuse, the straight line being wanting ; 
in the wings below the outer third is nearly black and unmarked, 
except for the subapical white spot on the fore wings, the inner two 
thirds is pure white, irrorated with purplish brown, more thickly so 
near the base inside the band, which is indicated by a blackish sin- 
uous line. 
Expanse of wings 1,5; inch.
