the lower median veinlet, this band composed of the three median portions, a 

 smaller spot outside end of the cell, and sometimes two superposed smaller outer 

 spots below the subcostal ; two, or some times three, pale fulvous lunules bordering 

 the marginal band. Sinclwing with a submarginal black continuous macular band 

 centred with white points ; upper discal black sinuous line distinct, its outer area 

 pale fulvous. Female. Upperside deep fulvous. Foreiving with black marginal 

 band traversed by pale fulvescent-white lunules ; crossed by a broad fulvescent-white 

 discal band; a blackish discocellular duplex streak and inner discal sinuous line. 

 Hindwing with a submarginal black decreasing macular band centred with white 

 points ; an upper discal black sinuous line, its outer area diffused fulvescent-white. 

 Expanse, S S^-q, ? 4 inches. Habitat. — Hongkong. Described from a male 

 and female taken in Hongkong by Bishop Smith, from the late J. J. Weir's collection, 

 and now in the possession of Mr. Stanley Edwards. Both sexes were also taken in 

 Hongkong in May, 1892, by Mr. J. J. Walker, E.IST. This species is distinct from

 Foreicing with a broad black outer border, its inner edge commencing from middle 

 of the costa at a short distance beyond end of cell, whence it descends very obliquely

 decreasing macular band with white centred points ; an upper discal black sinuous 

 line, slender, its outer costal area paler fulvous. Female. Upperside pale fulvous. 

 Forewing with a broad fulvescent-whitish discal band ; outer black border traversed 

 by fulvescent-whitish lunules ; a blackish costal streak, discocellular duplex streak 

 and inner discal sinuous line, each diffused. Hindwing with a prominent black sub- 

 marginal decreasing macular band with distinct white central lunules ; upper discal 

 blackish line slender, its outer costal area fulvescent-whitish. Expanse, c? S^-q, 

 ? 3j^ to 4 inches. Habitat. — S. China. Described from specimens in our own
