ON NEW AND LITTLE-KNOWN LEPIDOPTERA. 27 



which is detached from the rest, placed nearer the base of the wing ; 

 a submarginal series of dots as in the forewing. Female, coloured and 

 marked exactly as in the male, but differs in shape, the apex of the 

 forewing not being produced, and the hind wing is angled at the termi- 

 nation of the third median nervule. 



Very near to G. gopara, de Niceville, which is probably a synomym 

 of G. h/'f/gsiij Distant, from which it may instantly be known by the 

 absence of the oblique discal white fascia on the upperside of the 

 forewing in both sexes of that species. The immaculate character of 

 the forewing above distinguishes this from all the species of the genus 

 known to me. On the underside the markings are precisely as in 

 G. gopara, except that the white band of the forewing is wanting. 



Described from numerous examples in the collection of Hofrath 

 Dr. L. Martin and my own, some of which were taken in January 

 and March. 



11. ALLOTINUS APUS, n. sp., PL S, Fig. 17, $ . 



Habitat : N.-E. Sumatra. 



Expanse : 9 , 1*4 inches. 



Desckiption : Female. Uppeeside, both idngs dull plumbeous- 

 black, the forewing darker than the hindwing. Forewing with a large 

 oval discal pure white patch, anteriorly extending slightly into the 

 discoidal cell and lower discoidal interspace, posteriorly ending on the 

 inner margin, but that portion of the patch posterior to the submedian 

 nervure as well as the portion reaching to the base of the wing is not 

 pure white, being sullied with plumbeous scales. Hindwing immacu- 

 late. Undeeside, loth icings creamy-white mottled with numerous 

 small and large pale brown dots and spots. Forewing with three 

 increasing spots in the cell larger than the others, and an outer-discal 

 series of six larger spots, the series broken at the third median nervule, 

 the three posterior spots shifted inwardly towards the base of the wing ; 

 a marginal series of five larger spots. Hindicing with seven larger 

 basal spots arranged in two series, four and three, the outer series 

 the larger ; an elongated spot at the end of the cell ; an irregular discal 

 series; and a marginal series as in the forewing. Cilia throughout 

 whitish.
