isolated, not pupilled, excepting towards anal angle ; under 

 surface altogether redder thau in G. cimon, the ocelloid patches 

 on the secondaries smaller, forming a narrower belt, less brightly 

 coloured, and with their outer marginal black spots narrower 

 and more lunate in character; outer border more uniform in 

 colouring, tawny, with greyer marginal band. Expanse of wings 

 99 rnillims.

 This very fine species appears to belong to the C. cimon 

 group ; it is not in the Museum series. 



134. Chaeaxes feevens, sp. n. 



S . Size and general form of G. Layardi : pattern above very 

 similar to that of G. haya, but with the broadest portion of the 

 outer border of the primaries produced inwardly, the divided 

 black spot on the discocellulars and the black marginal lunate 

 streaks on the secondaries of G. parmenion (C latona, S) ; the 

 apical patch and submarginal spots of the hind wings however 

 remain as in G. laya : on the under surface the pattern and 

 colouring show distinct affinity to G. cimon and allies, the band 

 before the middle is however better defined, standing out in 

 rufous on a yellowish background, and on the primaries it is 

 more oblique than in any of the allied species.
