? . The inner series of spots on upper surface of primaries distinct. 

 Expanse, $ 74 mm., $ 80 mm. 



Two male and one female specimens taken in July at Ichang. 

 One male example, Chang Yang, July. 



Satyrus maculosa, sp. n. 

 J . Dark greyish brown. Primaries with three large black yellowish 

 ringed spots towards outer margin ; the two lower ones are contiguous. 

 Secondaries have two similar spots above anal angle ; fringes pale grey 

 tipped with darker. Under surface pale grey ; basal two-thirds and outer 

 margin of primaries thickly sprinkled with brownish ; a dark brown line 

 traverses the wing before the three large ocelli ; three narrow black lines on 

 outer margin enclose two whitish ones. Secondaries reticulated with 

 brownish on basal two-thirds ; ocelli five in number, the two nearest costa 

 contiguous, the other three lie towards anal angle, the fifth least in size ; a 

 dark wavy submarginal line and two parallel with outer margin enclosing a 

 whitish one ; fringes pale grey. Expanse, 36 mm. 



One female example taken in July at Chang Yang. 



Allied to Satyrus arvensis, Oberth., but differs from that 

 species in having five ocelli of equal size, and further in the 

 absence of white pupils. 



Pararge catena, sp. n . 



Brown suffused with fuliginous. Primaries traversed by an angulated 

 indistinct dark line bordered externally with paler, most clearly towards 

 costa ; a submarginal series of six black spots set in ochreous rings, the first 

 of which is very small and the last two larger than others ; marginal line pale. 

 Secondaries with a pale angulated central band and a submarginal series 

 of six ochreous ringed black spots, the third very small and the sixth equal 

 in size to the fourth and fifth, but ill-defined ; a pale line parallel with outer 

 margin ; fringe pale ochreous, chequered with brown at the ends of nervules. 

 Under surface of primaries grey-brown ; a pale ochreous bar, edged with 

 brown, crosses the discoidal cell, and is preceded by a small spot of the same 

 colour ; beyond the cell is an angulated dark line edged externally with pale 

 ochreous; this edging forms a triangular patch at costa, and unites with a 

 quadrate spot of the same colour on inner margin ; there are six pale 

 ochreous spots towards outer margin, all of which, with the exception of the 

 first, have black centres with white pupils ; beyond these is an interrupted 

 short ochreous band, two pale ochreous lines enclosing a brown one 

 parallel with outer margin. Secondaries brown, with an olive tint ; some 

 spots and an interrupted white band near the base ; central band white, 

 angulated and intersected at the angle by a short longitudinal bar ; a sub- 

 marginal series of six ocelli, the first bipupilated and the third very small, 

 the first three are distinctly bordered externally with white and the last three 

 less distinctly ; lines parallel with outer margin whitish ; fringes as above. 

 In the female the white markings are rather broader. Expanse, 55 mm. 



Seven male specimens taken in July, and one female captured 

 in August, at Chang Yang. 



In some respects this species agrees with Pararge dumetorum, 

 Oberth., Etud. d'Ent. xl. pt. iv. fig. 20 ; but it is easily separated 

 therefrom by the ocelli on both surfaces of primaries.
