258 LEPIDOPTERA INDICA. 



msesoides abruptly truncate aud slightly bilobed ; seen from the side the uncus of 

 dara is slender, tapering and pointed at the top, that of msesoides, which is surmounted 

 by a prominent tuft of hairs, is blunt and rounded at the tip ; the clasp of dara is 

 much more slender than in msesoides, and its terminal crook much more produced 

 and bent." 



Our figures of the larva and pupa are from Davidson's original drawings not 

 previously published ; Davidson, Bell and Aitken recorded it as dara, but 

 Mr. Davidson has kindly sent me a pair of their bred specimens, remarking that it 

 seems to be diflfereut from his specimens of dara from Kashmir.

Imago. — Male. Upperside very dark brown as in P. gola, with the dark orange- 

 ochreous discal band and sub-apical spots much as in that species, but it is a distinctly 

 larger species. Foreioing comparatively broader, the spots at the end of the cell 

 absent, though in one example the lower spot is present. Hindioing as in P. gola. 

 Cilia as in gola, the yellow parts orange-ochreous, much darker than in gola. 

 Underside with the ground colour similar, but the discal baud of the hindwiug is 

 somewhat obscure and indistinct. Antennse, palpi, head and body similar. 



Female like the male. 



Expanse of wings, $ % 1-]^ to IfV inches. 



Habitat. — South India. 



Distribution.— The type male in Coll. Elwes came from the Nilgiris ; Evans 

 records it from the Palni Hills ; we have both sexes from Ootacamund. Elwes and 

 Edwards say, " The tegumen in the lateral a.spect regularly decurved. In gola the 

 tegumen in the lateral aspect is sinuate." It is undoubtedly a good and distinct species, 

 we have had it in our collection for some years, set aside as distinct from gola ; our 

 figures are from our Ootacamund examples.
