NOVITATES ZOOLOGICAE XXIII. 1916. 13 



Forewing slightly narrower, costa less broadly white, the faint lines more 

 yellowish, the antemedian straight and very oblique (from well proximal to one- 

 third costa to middle of hindmargin), the postmedian more continuous, lunulate 

 outwards between the veins and strongly oblique outwards (almost parallel with 

 antemedian) at hindmargin. Base of costa beneath more strongly infuscated. 

 Discal dots beneath obsolescent. 



Dradjad, G. Kendang, Preauger R., W. Java. Type in coll. Tring Mas. 



Apparently an endemic development of Comibaena tenera, which commonly 

 has the median spnrs rather weak and the discocellulars of the forewing somewhat 

 approaching the Hercoloxia form. 



30. Gelasma dysgenes sp. nov. 



<$, 40-45 mm. Face black. Palpus with third joint short; black above, 

 cream-whitish beneath. Vertex and antennal shaft dirty white ; pectinations 

 about three times as long as diameter of shaft. Thorax above blue-grey, beneath 

 dirty whitish ; abdomen dirty whitish. Foreleg mostly blue-grey, middle- and 

 hindleg dirty whitish. 



Forewing with apex rather more acute than in fuscifimbria Prout, termen 

 rather straighter ; blue-grey,* not very opaquely scaled, costal edge very narrowly 

 ochreous ; lines whitish, placed and shaped about as in fuscifimbria, the antemedian 

 rather strongly angled inwards on SM 2 , the postmedian rather deeply lunulate 

 inwards at fold ; cell-mark weak, elongate ; a very fine pale line at base of fringe, 



tips also pale, the rest darker than the wing. Hindwing with the tail at R 3 more 



pronounced than in glaucaria Walk, and fuscifimbria Prout; antemedian line 

 wanting ; postmedian with the projections at R 3 and M 1 rather pronounced. 



Underside rather paler, the lines and cell-marks wanting ; fringes slightly 

 infuscated proximally, whitish distally. 



Vrianatong, Tibet. Type and others in coll. L. B. Prout. 



On account of the shape, this can scarcely be a very differently coloured form 

 of glaucaria or of fuscifimbria, though evidently a close relative. Not at all 

 variable. 



31. Gelasma magnipuncta sp. nov. 



<$ ? , 23 mm. Face red. Palpus red above, pale beneath, third joint in <S 

 moderate, in ? very long. Vertex and shaft of antenna white ; pectinations long, 

 ceasing abruptly at little beyond one-half. Thorax concolorous with wings, 

 abdomen rather paler. Legs red above, whitish beneath. 



Forewing with SC 1 stalked, anastomosing with ; dull olive, costa narrowly 

 ochreous, strongly marked with fuscous ; a darker olive line before one-third, 

 somewhat lunulate-dentate; a large roundish or oval fuscous-olive cell-spot; a 

 whitish postmedian line from costa at nearly two-thirds to hindmargin at three- 

 fourths, strongly lunulate-dentate and curved somewhat basewards near the 

 margins and opposite the cell, accompanied proximally by a dark olive shade 

 which thickens somewhat at the lunules ; terminal line dark olive ; fringe 



concolorous. Hindwing with termen waved, almost subcrenulate, moderately 



toothed at R 3 , M 1 about connate or just separate ; similar to forewing, without 

 antemedian line.

 more of greenish.
