Mr. A. G. Butler on the Genus Azelina. 37 
on the outer line, but an abbreviated streak of black scales 
immediately beyond it; the incomplete zigzag discal line 
represented by three well-defined brown >-shaped markings ; 
a band of black scales, interrupted by elongated red spots on 
the veins, running across the apical area and then along the 
outer margin: secondaries with the apical half washed with 
fiery cupreous; discal line much abbreviated, not extending 
above the third median nervule: thorax pale ash-grey, with 
the collar and a dorsal crest pale rust-red; abdomen grey, 
washed with reddish. Under surface darker and redder than 
in the preceding species; primaries with a white-edged 7- 
shaped black marking at the end of the gell; apex, as well as 
the discal patch, white; the discal line obsolete: secondaries 
with the black discocellular spot linear; discal line replaced 
by a very irregular series of whitish-edged grey spots: body

There was not the slightest occasion for Walker to doubt 
the generic location of this species; and therefore he placed a 
note of interrogation after it; in other species, where there was 
not even an approach to the generic characters of Azelina, 
he unhesitatingly described them as members of the genus.
