SATYRIN^. 271 



abdominal margin long ; cell long, narrow ; discocellulars long, very oblique. 

 Palpi short, porrect, clofclied witb sliort dense velvety hairs ; apical joint pointed ; 

 antenna with a well-formed blunt-tipt club. Type G. trimacitla (Lethe trimacula, 

 Leech, Entomologist, 1890, p. 27). Habitat. W. China. This latter species is 

 here placed near Debis with doubt ; its pattern above is peculiar, and that on the 

 underside of the hind wing is very different ; there are also seven ocelli present, the 

 two upper being geminated. 



Genus DIONANA. 



Imago. — Male. Wings large. Forewing triangular ; costa much arched, apex 

 obtusely pointed, exterior margin oblique, slightly wavy, posterior angle rounded, 

 posterior margin straight ; cell short, less than half length of the wing, broad ; 

 first and second subcostal branches emitted before end of the cell ; discocellulars 

 outwardly-oblique, upper short and angled close to subcostal, concave below the 

 angle, radials from the angles ; median branches equidistant apart. Eindwing 

 broadly ovate, costa arched in the middle, apex rounded, exterior margin convex, 

 sinuous, broadly angular at end of middle median veinlet ; cell broad, fusiform ; first 

 subcostal branch emitted at nearly one-third before end of cell ; discocellulars long, 

 outwardly-obhque, radial from the middle ; two upper medians from end of the cell, 

 lower at about one-fourth before the end. Thorax stout, densely hairy ; palpi nar- 

 row, hairy in front, apical joint short, slender; legs rather long, stout, middle and 

 hind femora slightly hairy beneath ; antennge long, with elongated very slender club ; 

 eyes hairy.

Imago. — Male. Upperside olivescent ochreous-brown ; marginal lines blackish, 

 ochreous bordered ; cilia pale ochreous. Forewing crossed by an ochreous-yellow 

 oblique discal narrow band, which terminates just below the lower median veinlet, 

 is crossed by brown veins, and slightly sinuous anteriorly on its outer edge ; 

 beyond is a subapical series of four ochreous-ringed black spots and a contiguous 

 upper costal ochreous spot. Hindwing with a submarginal series of five large black 

 ocelli, each with a narrow ochreous ring, and the two lower with a white pupil. 

 Underside paler, but brighter olivescent ochreous-brown ; marginal lines pale 

 olivescent-ochreous bordered. Forewing with the oblique discal band more 

 prominent and paler yellow ; there are five prominent submarginal ocelli, 

 each with a small black centre, a white pupil, a yellow ring, then a brown ring, 

 and all encompassed within an outer yellow band. Hindwing crossed by a slightly-
