68 NOVITATBS ZOOLOaiCAH XXIII. 1916. 



Forewing with costal margin rather straight, termen strongly oblique ; orange- 

 brown, mostly with coarse black strigulae ; markings black, very numerous ; some 

 spots at base, sometimes confluent with subbasal band ; subbasal band from costa 

 at about 2 mm. to hindmargin at about 3 mm., slightly interrupted about SG, 

 thickened posteriorly ; antemedian at 5-6 mm., sinuous, thickened at costa and 

 hindmargin ; some extended black clouding, or densely confluent striation, occupying 

 the median area from M and M 2 to hindmargin ; opposite to this (sometimes joining 

 it) a thick streak from beyond one-third costa ; a long, slightly curved streak from 

 costa and along DC, sometimes continued as a sinuous line to hindmargin ; distally 

 to this a narrow white, strongly pink-dusted band runs from costa, bending abruptly 

 after crossing R 3 , running to termen between this vein and M 1 , but throwing out 

 a less manifest (more orauge-dusted) sinuous continuation which runs narrowly to 

 hindmargin and is marked with white on M 2 ; a black line, thick anteriorly, distally 

 to the pale band ; some extended clouding in costal region near apex, a smaller patch 

 at hindmargin near tornus, black spots at apex and along a great part of termen, 



here interrupted by the pale band ; a pale line at base of fringe. Hindwing 



black, with indications of a narrow, slightly paler postmedian band. 



Underside blackish, the forewing with a very broad orange-red band from 

 middle of costal margin almost to termen, where it extends from R 3 to SM 2 , at 

 both extremities slightly marked with or encroached upon by the ground-colour. 



Mount Goliath, Central Dutch New Guinea, January and Febrnary 1911 

 (A. S. Meek). Type in coll. Tring Mus. 



This species and the two which follow, together with aroensis Roths. (Nov. 

 Zool. xi. 322) will — unless they prove to require a new genus — form a second 

 section of Eucharidema, with the coincident SO 1-2 arising from the cell, though 

 close to SC 3-5 . In the present species the stalking of R 2 is generally long, but 

 in the others only short ; in the ¥ of labyrinthodes it even arises from DC, 

 though close to R 1 . 



141. Eucharidema labyrinthodes sp. nov. 



c? ? , 68-72 mm. Head and thorax black. Abdomen mixed brown-grey and 

 blue-grey. 



Forewing shaped nearly as in euanthes, costal margin slightly more arched ; 

 glossy black, with purple reflection, the lines light ochreous brown, the median 

 and sometimes the distal paler anteriorly ; a narrow, straight, oblique bar from 

 costa at 5 mm. to hindmargin at 7 mm. ; a broader, more oblique band from about 

 middle of costa to R 3 , then more narrowly along that vein to termen aud closely 

 followed posteriorly by a second narrow bar before M 1 ; a narrow, slightly sinuous 

 bar from beyond three-fourths costa, crossing the preceding one and running to 

 three-fifths or two-thirds hindmargin ; another narrow bar arising at tornus, 

 crossing the last-mentioned and running into the midcostal bar ; a sometimes 

 isolated, sometimes continent spot placed between the medians just distally to the 



last bars ; fringe pale. Hindwing glossy dark blue-grey, palest at costa and at 



an ill-defined postmedian band, becoming almost black distally to the latter. 



Forewing beneath blackish, shading off to blue-grey posteriorly ; an orange 

 band much as in the preceding species, but relatively less broad and arrested before 

 reaching the termen. Hindwing beneath blue-grey, becoming blacker at termen 

 and broadly at apex.
