Pamphila maga, sp. n. 



$ . Superficially resembles P. virgata, but tbe thorax is much stouter, 

 and the primaries are without the yellow costal streak of that species, there 

 are two yellow spots in discoidal cell, the lower of which is oblong and much 

 the largest ; beyond are six other yellow spots forming a transverse series, 

 three of these are close together near the costa, one in each median 

 interspace, and one near the submedian nervure. Secondaries have one 

 spot in each median interspace. Under surface of primaries blackish ; costa 

 and upper portion of outer margin broadly suffused with yellow ; the yellow 

 spots of the upper surface are, with the exception of the sixth, reproduced, 

 the second to fourth each followed by a black spot, and there is a submarginal 

 series of indistinct black spots between apex and first median nervule ; a 

 projection from the yellow marginal border passes between the costal and 

 central spots. Expanse, 32 mm. 



One male example taken at Ichang in June, and I captured 

 one at Ningpo in April, 1886. 



Pamphila similis, sp. n. 

 $ ■ Exactly identical with the same sex of P.prominens, Moore, except 

 as regards the sexual mark, which in this species is replaced by two 

 subhyaline spots, one fairly large and triangular, the other, just above it, 

 smaller and comma-like. 



One male example taken at Chang Yang, in June. 

 Halpe submacula, sp. n. 



$ . Dark brown. Primaries have a double subhyaline spot in discoidal 

 cell, one in each median interspace beyond, and three forming a short 

 oblique dash just below costa and near apex ; there are also two small 

 obscure yellowish spots below the discoidal cell. Secondaries have three 

 central subhyaline spots, two of these are only separated by the second 

 median nervule, and the third is nearer the costa. Under surface dark 

 brown, clouded with yellowish, discal central and costal subhyaline spots as 

 above, but tinged with yellow ; the costa is streaked with ochreous to the 

 middle, and there is a submarginal series of ochreous spots extending to first 

 median : secondaries are brown, sprinkled with ochreous scales, with a pale 

 yellowish spot near base of costal nerve, another nearer its middle, and one 

 at its external extremity, the last constitutes the initial spot of a submarginal 

 series of double pale yellow spots, the third of which represents the terminal 

 spot of three, forming a longitudinal streak from the base of the wing ; another 

 longitudinal streak below is in connection with the last spot of submarginal 

 series, but its junction therewith is obscured by some blackish markings ; 

 fringes of both surfaces pale yellow, chequered with blackish. Expanse, 

 38—40 mm. 



Five male specimens from Chang Yang, taken in June. 

 Cyclopides chinensis, sp. n. 



Brownish black. Primaries with a short white dash near costa and 

 towards apex, broken up by the nervules into three spots. Under surface of 

 primaries brown, suffused with fuliginous over the discal area, upper half of 

 outer margins bordered with greyish, white dash as above ; secondaries 

 brown, inner half thickly sprinkled with greyish scales, and traversed by two 

 obscure darker bands. Fringes dark grey, both above and beneath. Expanse, 

 $ 32—34 mm., ? 36—40 mm. 



Several specimens of both sexes, taken in the neighbourhood
