8 NOVITATES ZOOLOGICAK XXIII. 1916. 



postmedian, with sharper dark dot at the end of each tooth, and the distinct discal 

 spot of hindwing beneath. The submarginal band of the underside is on an average 

 narrower than in the other races, but varies considerably in all the forms ; the fore- 

 wing beneath lacks the dark suffusion which in the other races is so often present 

 behind the cell. 



Assam : Khasi and Naga Hills, Shillong ; Shan States : Maymyo. Type 

 from the Khasis in coll, Tring Mus. 



20. Hypodoxa multidentata sp. nov. 



8 , 44 mm. Coloration of upperside about as in H. emiliaria Guen., but with 

 the hair-tuft of the hindwing more rufous ; differs at a glance in the antemedian 

 line of the forewing, which forms four strong teeth proximad and three (besides a 

 smaller costal one) distad, the middle one of the three latter larger but somewhat 

 less acute, the other two very black and thick ; the postmedian line is more 

 strongly curved proximad at costa and here somewhat thickened, very slightly bent 

 inwards between the radials and only slightly outwards on R 3 and M 1 , otherwise 

 similar to that of the emiliaria forms ; that of the hindwing shows a rather 

 marked proximad bent between the radials. Underside quite different from the 

 emiliaria group, more recalling muscosaria Guen., etc. ; pale greyish, with large 

 blackish cell-marks and broad dark borders, occupying at least two-thirds of the 

 area between cell-marks and termen, its proximal margin nearly even throughout, a 

 small pale spot at costa of forewing, but no other pale spots ; extreme termen and 

 fringe again pale. 



Malay Peninsula (Adams). Type in coll. Tring Mus. 



Three $ ? in the same collection — Penang, November 1898 (Curtis), Mount 

 Marapok, Dent Province, British North Borneo, and " Borneo " without further 

 detail — show the species to be rather variable in colour on the upperside. Larger 

 than the 3, median area of forewing more or less pale, distal area and most of 

 hindwing with strong suffusions of rufous and blackish in varying proportions. 

 Easily known by the underside. 



21. Hypodoxa regina sp. nov. 



? , 48 mm. Face and palpus liver-brown mixed with black, the palpus pale 

 beneath. Vertex green. Thorax green, mixed on tegulae and on metathoracic 

 tuft with liver-brown and black ; beneath partly pale brownish, partly ochre-yellow. 

 Abdomen pale brownish, dorsally tinged with green and mixed with liver-brown, 

 on sides ochre-yellow, first segment with a pale dorsal belt, containing some black 

 scales at its extremities. 



Forewing pale green, somewhat mixed with white in middle ; markings liver- 

 brown, mixed with black scales, the black prevailing in the proximal region ; an 

 irregular patch at base, from M to hiudmargin ; first line strong, from costa at 

 4 mm. to hindmargin at 5 mm. or beyond, tolerably direct, but with small teeth 

 distally ; accompanied proximally by an irregular band, which commences about 

 SC and widens to hindmargin; discal dot small, black; postmedian line not thick, 

 only in anterior part distinct, posteriorly green with a few black scales ; dentate 

 outwards on the veins and fold ; arising at two-thirds costa, almost parallel with 

 termen to radial fold, projecting distad in two stronger teeth on ft 3 and M 1 , then 

 strongly oblique inwards, forming a strong proximad curve between M 2 and SM 2 ,
