Lamprogaster lepida Walk. Tr. Ent. Soc. N. S. IV, 226 ! (Ce- 

 lebes) agrees exactly with mine in the coloring of the wings; 

 but the body is metallic-green, head and legs reddish. It may 

 be nevertheless the same species as mine ; by all means, I 

 would not describe the single specimen I have as a new species 

 when there are so many closely related and conflicting species. 

 L. lutei'pennis (Celebes), Walk. J. Pr. Lin. Soc. V, 261, seems to 

 be the same species as L. lepida. L. sepsoldes Wk. is closely 

 allied, but has more hyaline wings. 



Kandari, Celebes, April 1874 (Beccar I); one specimen. 



Lamprogaster spec. Kapaor , N. Guinea , April 1872 [L. M. 

 D'Albe fits) ; one specimen. 



This species has nearly the same distribution of the spots on 

 the wings as the preceding ; but it is much smaller, the wings 

 are more hyaline ; the legs are black and only the first joint 

 of the tarsi reddish, but clothed with a dense whitish micro- 

 scopic pubescence which, in a certain light, makes them appear 

 white. I did not have this specimen with me in London and 

 could not therefore name it. 



Lamprogaster costaiis Walk. J. Proc. Lin. Soc. V, 247 (Dorei, 

 New Guinea) ! 



The description is recognizable, although Walker, as usual, 

 calls the yellowish wings « cinereous » . 



Dorei, N. Guinea, Dec. 1875, Beccar i. Two specimens. 



Lamprogaster superna Wk. (Gilolo) and quadrilinea (Aru), 

 seem to be closely alhed to L. costaiis. 



Lamprogaster sp. — Aru Isl.*^', Wokan (Beccari 1873). 

 One somewhat immature specimen. The wings are yellowish, 

 without any spots ; the legs reddish. 



Euprosopia potens Walk. {Platysloma) J. Pr. Lin. Soc. VI, 12! 

 (Gilolo, Ternate). 



Ternate, 1875 (Beccari); two specimens ((/9)-
