The following key to the subspecies of M. albertisi will) I trust, be of use : 



{Subterminal band of hindwing very strongly dentate and orange in colour 2. 

 Subterminal band of hindwing not so strongly dentate and not orange, 

 more uniform in colour with wing ....... 3. 



rOblique pale band of forewing wider .... a. albertisi Oberth. 



'* lOblique pale band of forewing narrower . . . a. aigion Frühst. 



fPostocular orange patch on forewing absent or barely indicated . . 5. 

 '' \Postocnlar patch on forewing conspicuous 4. 



{Postocular patch smaller, general colour darker and duskier 

 a. milnei Rothsch. 

 Postocular patch larger, general colour brighter, more rufous 

 a. kumusii Rothsch. 



rSubterminal band of hindwing more dentate 6. 



' ISubterminal band of hindwing much less dentate . a. setakwaensis Rothsch. 



/"Larger, much darker, and duskier ... a. mambarensis Rothsch. 



' iSmaller, brighter rufous ..... a. astrolabiensis Stich. 



Morphopsis biakensis Joicey & Talbot 

 (PI. IV. ff. 3, 4) 



The Tring Museum has the following specimens of this species : 



1 c?, 1 ?, Suer, Mafor Island, May and June 1897 (W. Doherty) ; 5<?(?, 



Kapaur, December 1896 (low country) (W. Doherty); 2 <5<$, Humboldt Bay, 



September— October 1892 (W. Doherty) ; 1 c?, N.W. Dutch New Guinea (H. Kühn). 



This species differs at first sight from M. albertisi by its smaller and ronud 



hindwing, and the strongly lobed area of forewing below vein 1. 



Taenaris 

 Here I have a unmber of new forms to describe and some remarks to make. 



Taenaris diana bisae subsp. nov. 



<$. Above differs from d. diadema Frühst, in the brown above median and 

 between costa and vein 4 being darker. Below there is little difference ; 1 S has 

 an incomplete secondary ocellus above tornus of hindwing, and the second $ has no 

 trace of this. 



? . Differs very considerably from ? d. diadema ; the pale area is almost pure 

 white, not suffused with cream yellow, and on both wings is much more sharply 

 separated from the brown suffused portions of the wings ; the outer edges being 

 sharply defined. Below the anal ocellus of hindwing is round and single, and the 

 pale areas also much whiter. 



Hab. Pulo Bisa, N. of Obi Island, 2 S3, 1 $, September 1897 (W. Doherty). 



Taenaris dina insularis subsp. nov. 

 (PI. III. ff. 1 t?, 2 ?) 



Herr Fruhstorfer in Seitz informs us that up to the time of writing dina 

 Stand, had only been found in what was then the German portion of N.E. New 

 Guinea. The Tring Museum possesses a c? and ? from Salawatti, a <? (?) and a ? 

 from the Snow Mountains which represent two new r and distinct subspecies.
