the last joint. The anteanEe are filiform, with minute setae at the 

 joints. 



Expanse 23 mm. 



Described from a single specimen (? female) taken by Mr. Dudgeon 

 at about 5000 feet, near Darjeeling, May 15, 1887. 



Setina? punctata, n. sp. (Plate XXXII. fig. 18, $ .) 



This species is nearly allied to S. dasara, Moore, which I have 

 from the Naga Hills and Sikkim, and which also occurs in the North- 

 west Himalaya. It is also less nearly allied to 5'. nebulosa, Moore, 

 of which I have both sexes from Sikkim, but distinguished from 

 both these by having no bands across the wings. 



From iS. dharma, Moore, and >Sf. punctilinea, Moore, it is also 

 distinct, as I have compared these species in Mr. Moore's collection. 

 It comes nearest to S. discisigna, Moore, from the Khasi Hills, but 

 differs from it in having no purplish brown on the hind wing, no 

 black spots on the head or thorax, abdomen and legs yellowish 

 instead of purplish brown. 



Described from two females, one from Sikkim, and one from the 

 Naga Hills. I doubt whether the Indian species are congeneric 

 with Setina of Schrank, in S. nebulosa at least the male antennae are 

 pectinate ; but I leave them so at present as my series is not suffi- 

 ciently good to rearrange them. 



Lyclene simplifascia, n. sp. (Plate XXXII. fig. 19,$.) 



This species is nearly allied to L. nubifascia. Walk., of which I 

 have numerous specimens of both sexes, but differs in the following 

 particulars : — The double row of spots across the fore wing is not 

 bent outwards at the hind margin, and except in very fresh speci- 

 mens is hardly visible. The fore wings are much deeper in colour. 

 The dark bands across the fore wings are very faint, often quite in- 

 visible on the upper surface, and always narrower, especially in the 

 female. 



If I had not several fresh specimens of both sexes I should not 

 have ventured to separate it, but finding that both Mr. Moore, Col. 

 Swinhoe, and Mr. Butler have separated it in their collections without 

 naming it, I have decided to do so. I took this species as well as 

 L. nubifascia commonly at light at Darjeelin*, on Tonglo, also on 

 the top of the Kishilah in West Bhotan, from June to August. The 

 antennae of the male are pectinate as in L. nubifascia.

In order to identify the numerous species of Bitone I have from 

 India, and before describing any new species, I was obliged to revise 

 the whole genus, and have carefully gone through the specimens in 

 the British and Oxford Museums and in the collections of Messrs. 

 Druce, Moore, Leech, Col. Swinhoe, and Dr. Staudinger, all of whom
