468 MR. H. GROSE SMITH ON [June 17, 



traversed across the disk as far as the cell by the black nervures and 

 rays between ; a row of very minute bluish-white spots between the 

 veins near the margin. 



Underside. Anterior wings black at the base, shading into brown 

 towards the apex ; the patch and apical spot as above but larger, 

 especially that part of the patch which lies within the cell, where it 

 extends upwards till it joins the small white spot ; nearer the base 

 is another small white spot and several small white spots at the 

 base ; on the margin from above the upper median nervule to the 

 posterior angle is a row of small white spots, in pairs, alternately 

 longer and shorter. Posterior wings with the base and the space 

 between the costal margin and the upper subcostal nervule broadly 

 bright brown, with the veins and a ray between them dark brown ; 

 the central area and abdominal fold is white, shading into dull brown 

 towards the anal angle, and traversed by the dark brown veins with 

 rays of same colour between ; a series of minute spots on the margin. 

 A few white spots on the head ; thorax and abdomen black above, 

 brown beneath : antennae black. 



Expanse of wings 4 inches. 



Nearest to H. dinarcha. Hew., but very distinct from that species 

 or any of the group. 



55. Hypolimnas bartelotti, u. sp. 



Male. — Upperside. Anterior wings dark brown, a sinuate rather 

 narrow oblique white band in the cell at | of its length, an oval 

 spot at the end of the cell with a few white scales above it ; a 

 brownish-white patch on the disk about its middle divided into three 

 by the upper and middle median nervules, the middle part elongate 

 ovate, the upper part subovatc, smaller, the lower part linear, almost 

 obsolete, beyond which is a row of five round spots, the uppermost 

 and lowest the largest, but smaller than in dinarcha, Hew., the 

 three others minute ; the cilia at the ajDex, and also minutely between 

 the veins, white. Posterior wings paler brown, the nervures and 

 rays between dark brown ; the cell and the spaces above it, as far as 

 the upper submedian nervule and slightly below it, stramineous ; 

 on the margin two minute white spots between the veins from the 

 costal nervure down to the upper median nervule ; the cilia also 

 between those veins spotted with white. 



Underside. Anterior wings paler than above towards the apex 

 and blacker towards the base and the spots larger ; above the white 

 spot at the end of the ceU are two indistinct white streaks, and 

 between the spot across the cell and the base are four other white 

 spots ; a series of submarginal white spots between the veins, 

 commencing beneath the upper median nervule down to the posterior 

 angle. Posterior wings as above, the central stramineous patch 

 being whiter and more extended, a submarginal row of minute white 

 spots as above, but four instead of two between each vein ; the cilia 

 also spotted as above. 



Expanse 3^ inches. 



Also near H. dinarcha, but wings browner and comparatively
