 in dense forest. 



51. Gitrinophila terias sp. nov. (pi. XIV, fig. 53). 



This species is allied to erastus Hew., and resembles the smaller 

 and more widely margined specimens of Terias brigitta. Intermediate 

 in size between erastus and other species of the genus. 



? . Upperside pale yellow as in erastus $ . 



Fore wing with black distal area, broader apically, and extending 

 narrowly along costa from above the cell, inner edge slightly curved 

 anteriorly to vein 4 and thence straight to inner margin before the 

 outer angle. Hind wing with black marginal border at least 2 mm. 

 broad from vein 7 to anal angle, with some sparse scaling along inner 

 margin ; this border slightly incurved between veins 5 and 7, as in 

 erastus. 



Underside creamy-white, deep yellow at base. A marginal series 

 of black spots on both wings, the apical spot in both wings being the 

 larger ; these spots with ill-defined edges as in erastus. 



Coloration of body and appendages as in erastus. 



Length of fore wing, 16 mm.

52. Liptena ilma lathyi subsp. nov. (pi. XIV, fig. 52). 



This striking form is at once distinguished by the white patch on 

 the fore wing above. 



S . Upperside with ground colour as in ilma Hew. Fore wing 

 with a large white discal patch, variable in size, reaching to just above 

 vein 3, filling base of cellule 3 and generally the base of 2, extending 

 a little below vein 2 and distally reaching the submedian, curved on 

 its outer edge, and from 3 to 5 mm. broad at vein 2. Black disco- 

 cellular spot much larger than in typical form. Hind wing with large 

 discocellular spot, and white costal area reaching vein 7.

 extended brown apical patch, and the postdiscal brown line on the 

 hind wing strongly marked.
