is larger than the others. Otherwise the specimens agree with Godart's 

 description. In the female there are distinct reddish-bordered ocelli on 

 the forewing, and the sordid spots are larger. The underside is some- 

 times reddish, as is often the case with the female of /. lemonias. There 

 seem to be two perfectly distinct seasonal forms, that of the dry-season 

 resembling a dead leaf below. 



Sumba, Sambawa, those from the latter island not examined. 

 The species is certainly very close to the Javanese J. erigone.

In the male there is no distinctly rufous area except a submarginal 

 band on both wings, evanescent apically on the forewing. In some 

 females nearly the whole upper surface is more or less rufous, outward- 

 ly brighter, a dark area over the apex and disc of the forewing, th& 

 subapical spots united, a small distinct ocellus (obscure in the male) 

 between the lower median branches. Below, the male is dark with 

 the ocelli distinct, while the above-mentioned females are glossed with 

 silvery-grey scales over both wings, obscuring the subapical band and 

 the ocelli, the median transverse line distinct, angled at the upper 

 raedian vein. These females evidently belong to the dry-season brood, 

 just appearing at the time I left Sumba, and resembling the other form 

 much as /. almana resembles asterie. I have not observed any male of 

 this brood. 



Sumba. This very distinct species, as Mr. "Wallace justly calls it» 

 was previously known only from Timor,

I see that Doubleday, followed by M. Oberthiir and Dr. Semper, 

 places this species in the very heterogeneous African genus Salamis, 

 the type of which somewhat resembles a DoleschalUa. The only species 

 of SalaTTiis at all like Yoma are 8. anacardii and anteva, forming Wallen- 

 gren's genus Protogoniomorpha, a name which ought to be barred on 

 account of its enormous length. But in these species the cell of the
