The representative of L. emolul 

 in the Palni Hills is very dis 

 tinct, and I propose to call i 

 topa ; it is smaller than emo 

 lus, the border is broadei 

 on the forewing ; below the 

 bands are filled in with darbei 

 colouring as in Nacaduba ccB' 

 lestis, the markings are moK 

 regular, the discal band onth( 

 forewing is formed of almos 

 separated spots, that in spacs

 ginal lunules are promi

 all black and there are 2 smal 

 black spots at the anal angle 

 the ciliated tails seem absent
