A EEVISION OP THE OEIENTAL HESPEBIIDtE. 117 



Var. akgustipennis, nov. 



This form, which is apparently confined to W. Java, is readily distinguished by the 

 characters given in the table above, and particularly by the greater length of the costa 

 of the fore wing in proportion to the dorsum.

This also is a long-winged form, from Kina Balu, Borneo (Waterstradt), and wants 

 the white spots in cells 4 and 5 on the fore wing above. The hind wing above is very 

 slightly spotted (in the male) or without spots (in the female). 



All the insular forms of leucocera appear to be of a darker colour and less spotted 

 on the hind wing above than those from Continental India.

We have received three specimens from Bali and one from Arjuno, Java, collected 

 by Mr. Doherty, which may constitute a distinct local race ; they are, however, only 

 distinguishable from spilothyrus by the almost complete disappearance of the spots on 

 the hind wing below, and agree exactly with a specimen of his P. ruficornis sent by 

 M. Mabille ; they have the costal spot of the fore wing white instead of yellow, thus 

 resembling South Indian specimens (P. fusca, Hampson) in which this spot is usually 

 but not always white, and not Ceylon specimens in which it seems to be always yellow.

In addition to the characters laid down in the table above, this species differs 

 from C. nigricans, de Nice'v., as follows : — The white spot in cell 1 a of the fore wing 

 is irregularly roundish, not reaching halfway across the cell, and placed next the apex of 

 the lower edge of the white spot in ceil 2. On the underside the hyaline spot in
