198 LEPIDOPTERA INDICA. 



ocelli; tte second and third smallest, the fourth largest, and all encompassed 

 by a pale violescent-white outer line. Sindwing with a linear series of seven similar 

 sized prominent ocelli ; the second, third, and seventh being the smallest. Female. 

 Upperside. Foreiving with the median ocellus as in male. Hindwing with a distinct 

 very small lower median ocellus. Underside paler olivescent-brown ; transverse 

 discal white band and ocelli as in male, except that the lower small ocellus on the 

 forewing is undeveloped. Male on the underside of the forewing with a glandular 

 patch of dark ochreous-brown scales on middle of the submedian vein, these 

 scales being long and narrow, but broadest anteriorly with rounded fronts. 

 On the upperside of the hindwing is the ordinary subbasal tuft of yellow hairs, the 

 tuft only partially overlapping a very prominent and abnormally elongated glandular 

 patch of bright ochreous-yellow scales, these scales being somewhat shorter 

 and broader than those on the forewing, the patch itself extending from above 

 the base of the first subcostal and then bending through the interspace between its 

 two branches to nearly half-way towards the outer margin of the wing, and thus 

 being prolonged outwardly much beyond the tuft of hairs, its end terminating 

 straight and erect between the two veins. Expanse, ^ If to If ; ? 1| inch. — 

 Dry-season brood (Plate 66, fig. 2, c S). — Male. Upperside as in the wet-season 

 brood. Underside darker brown basally, paler and violescent-brown externally, the 

 transverse discal band of nearly the same width and as prominently defined ; 

 marginal lines less defined. Foreiving with the five linearly-disposed nearly 

 obsolescent minute ocelli, of which the upper and the fourth are the most developed. 

 Hindwing with seven small indistinct ocelli, of which the second and third are 

 minute and nearly obsolete. Expanse S 1| inch. Habitat. Java (Horsfield) ; 

 Sumatra; Nias. In Coll. F. Moore; British Museum; Hewitson. — C. Distanti 

 (Plate 66, fig. 3) n. sp. An alUed species, the male possessing on upperside of 

 hindwing a similar elongate bright yelloio patch of scales prolonged conspicuously 

 beyond the hairy tuft, but is curved on its terminating edge between the veins ; the 

 upperside of the wings olivescent-brown, ocellus similar ; underside dark olivescent- 

 grey, the transverse discal line narrower than in Horsfieldii and olivescent-white, 

 marginal lines also olivescent-white ; forewing with only two moderate-sized ocelli, 

 a subapical and a median, each encircled by a pale outer olivescent-white ring ; 

 hindwing with seven ocelU, all encompassed by a similar coloured outer line. 

 Expanse c?, If inch. Habitat. Selangir, Malay Peninsula. In Coll. Swinhoe.
