398 COL. C. SWINHOE ON NEW [Nov. 5, 



and a discal corresponding row of spots smaller than the suh- 

 marginal row. 



Hind wing coloured and marked almost exactly as in O. pavana ; 

 two spots at the end of the cell, and five rows of spots and macular 

 lines on the wing, subbasal row consisting of two spots, antemedial 

 row of four spots almost in a line, passing just inside the two spots 

 at the end of the cell ; a curved row of discal spots, a submarginal 

 macular line, a band of white between these rows, another macular 

 line close to the border line, which is also black, with a red band 

 between. 



Expanse of wings 1 inch.

 HUPHINA NAMA, var. ANDAMANA, U. Subsp. 



Smaller than typical H. nama ; the male is similarly coloured and 

 marked above : below, in each of the six specimens before me, the 

 cell in the hind wings is not clear pale yellow as in typical H. nama, 

 more than two thirds of it from the base being filled up with the 

 greenish coloration of the rest of the wing ; the pale yellowish streak 

 which usually runs from tlie base right through the cell near to the 

 outer margin in this subspecies merely consists of a large patch 

 occupying the outer third of the cell and a small space beyond. 



The female, however, is entirely unlike the female of typical 

 H. nama ; it nearly resembles its male, but the apical band on the 

 fore wings above and below is much deeper ; the marginal band on 

 the hind wing above is also broader and darker, and the costal 

 border and basal portion of both wings are broadly irrorated with 

 blackish -brown atoms. 



Hind wing below as in the male.

This is, of course, merely a curious local form of //. nama, but as 

 I have never seen it from any other locality I think it is worth 

 recording. 



Appias hippoides, var. epiccena, n. subsp. 



Male. Similar to the male of A. hippoides, but the Hack bands on 

 both wings above and below are much narrower. The female, how- 

 ever, is altogetlier different, being white above like its male; fore 

 wing with a broad, even, black, costal border, extending downwards 

 nearly halfway into the cell ; the bas^e suifused with black, and 

 filling nearly the basal half of the cell, and the marginal bands of 

 both wings resembling in form the maigiuiil bands of the male, but 

 uniformly black and quite double the breadth : underside also as
