346 Le^idojjtera from Manipur and the Borders of Assam. 



121. Pterothysanus atratus, sp. n. (PI. VIII. fig. 3.) 

 Primaries above smoky brown ; a large spot near the base 

 of interno-raedian area ; a second larger spot within the end 

 of the cell, two small spots beyond the cell ; two spots, well 

 separated, beyond the middle of the costal border ; an oblique 

 subapical /-shaped marking, a spot at outer third of second 

 median interspace, and a large excised patch crossed by the 

 first and second median branches, all white ; a marginal series 

 of irregular angular pink spots : secondaries white ; base, 

 costal margin, an irregular angulated band, widest at inner 

 margin, crossing the wing before the middle, and the external 

 third (the inner edge of which is acutely incised and undu- 

 lated) smoky brown ; five rather small submarginal white 

 spots ; a marginal series of irregular angular pink spots. 

 Body orange-ochreous, spotted with black ; venter black, with 

 two parallel series of small white spots. Expanse of wings 

 74 millim. 

 Near Assam. 



Apart from differences of pattern this species is readily 

 separable from P. laticilta by the pink marginal spots, in 

 which respect it shows some relationship to P. pictus.

123. Eupterote lucia, sp. n. (PI. VIII. fig. 4.) 

 $ . Nearest to E. amoena from Java ; of about the size of 

 the largest specimens of that species ; of a more brilliant 

 chrome-yellow colour ; all the wings crossed by three central 

 or nearly central purplish-brown lines, dentate-sinuate on the 

 primaries and zigzag on the secondaries, the third line partly 

 bounded externally by a nearly straight band of the same 

 colour, followed at a short distance by a series of dots on the 

 veins, which towards costa of primaries are united by an 

 undulated brown line, forming the inner edge of three imper- 

 fect confluent rings, the lower two of which enclose brown 

 spots ; the outer edge of the rings commences as an ill-defined 

 sinuated submarginal line ; costa of primaries irrorated with 

 brown towards apex ; markings below less perfect, but 

 widening towards costa of primaries, chocolate-coloured. 

 Expanse of wings 95 millim. 

 Near Assam.
