TIRUNA ROEPSTORFFII (Plate 50, fig. Z,S). 

 Tiruna Eoe'jniorffii, Moore, Proc. Zool. Soc. Loiul. 1883, p. 31G, pi. 32, fig. 8, $ . 



liiAGO. — Male. Colour and pattern of markings similar to Karadina Anda- 

 manensis. Upperside pale olive-brown, but darker than in K. Andamanensis. Fore- 

 wing with a similarly-disposed submarginal and marginal row of olivaceous-white 

 spots; the marginal series smaller, conical, and extending to the apex, the two sub- 

 marginal spots between the median veinlets indented on their outer edge and the 

 lowest spot divided into two ; a discal row of much paler spots, and a similar rounded 

 spot within lower end of the cell ; sexual mark blachish, Hindwing with the sub- 

 marginal row of spots narrower than in K. Andamanensis, the marginal row smaller 

 and conical ; discoidal patch oUvaceous-ichite. 



Expanse, 3|- inches. 



Habitat. — Andaman Isles. 



This is a very rare species, the only example known to me being the type speci- 

 men of the male in the collection of Herr G. Semper, of Altona. In general form, 

 colour, and pattern, it much resembles the Karadina Andamanensis, and is a mimick 

 of that species. 



Indo-Malatan allied species op Tiruna. — T. Oehsenheimeri (Lucas, Eev. et Mag. 

 Zool. 1853, 315, i ) ; the type specimen of which has been personally examined 

 and a comparative description of it given in my " Monograph of the Euploeinoe," 

 in P. Z. S. 1883, p. 317. Habitat. Java. 



Genus NARMADA. 



Narmada, Moore, Lepidoptera of Ceylon, i. p. 13 (1880), Proc. Zool. Soc. Loud. 1883, p. 318. 

 Euploea {Stidoploea part), Marshall and De j^ice'ville, Butt, of India, i. p. 90 (1882). 



Imago. — Male, Foretoing elongated, triangular,' costa slightly arched, apex 

 somewhat acute, exterior margin oblique, posterior margin slightly convex ; upper 

 discocellular with a short spur emitted within the cell. Two sexual marks between the 

 lower median and submedian veins, the upper streak clothed with widely-separated 

 short scales of irregular shape, having broad bluntly bidented or rounded tips, and 

 the lower streak clothed with widely- separated short tridentate-tipt scales ; both 

 these streaks, on the underside of the wing, being clothed with short regularly- 

 disposed round-tipt ribbed scales, interspersed with a few narrow whitish scales and 

 a very few extremely slender clavate white scales. Hindwing triangular. 



Type. — N. Coreoides. 



This genus differs from typical Stictoploea in the more triangular form of both 

 wings, the forewing being narrower, more acuminate, and the sexual marks shortei*. 

 Pattern of markings and coloration similar to typical Crastia (C. Gore).
