(a) Markings on the upperside similar to T. aurifera, Butler; yellowish 

 siibmaryinal band of the hindwing sometimes traceable to the costa. 

 Underside of the forewing with the submarginal band not connected with 

 the basal suffusion. T. sp. Sikhim and Bhutan, up to 4,000 feet. 

 Occurs from May to August, and is not uncommon. Exp. 58-78 

 millimetres. This species also requires a new name, unless the type of 

 T. acuta, Wlk., has a similarly-formed palpus. 

 139. T. helops, Wlk. 



Sikhim (Hampson). I do not know this species. 

 140. T. lucasi, Wlk. 



Throughout India (Hampson). Neither Mr. Elwes nor myself have 

 seen this species from Sikhim or Bhutan. 



143. T. lineosa, Wlk. 



Sikhim and Bhutan, 3,000 to 9,000 feet. The variety generally 

 procured at the high elevation is T. lineosa, and that from the lower 

 T. major. It occurs from May to August. The orifice in the palpus 

 narrow and small. 



157. T. nessusj Drury. 



Sikhim and Bhutan, 2,000 feet. It occurs in June, July, and 

 August. I have taken the larvae on several occasions at 2,500 feet. 

 It is green, with oblique lateral white stripes tinged throughout with 

 violaceous ; there is a blind white ocelluon the fourth and a smaller one 

 on each of the fifth and sixth somites. Horn brownish. Head green. 

 Anterior legs buff. Food-plant Convolvulacece. Pupa is brownish 

 variegated with reddish-buff, a frontal line of pale red extending from 

 the head to the tail ; some whitish lateral marks on the first three 

 abdominal segments. 



158. T. actea, Cram. 



Sikhim and Bhutan, up to 6,000 feet. All my specimens were 

 taken between July and September. They do not seem to show any 

 variation except in the extent of the flesh-coloured markings on the 

 hindwing. The larva before the last moult is pale green with a large 

 bright green oval ocellus on the fourth somite, pupilled and ringed 

 with black ; the fifth to tenth somites each with a smaller paler green 

 oval ocellus, surrounded with pale blue ; horn reddish-brown ; head 

 and legs green. After the final moult the larva is chocolate-brown 

 with slight oblique lateral striations. The ocellus on the fourth somite
