! Odontoptiluh sura. 

 Achlyodes sura, Moore, P. Z. S. 1865, p. 786. 



Abaratha sura, Distant, Rhop. Mai. p. 390, pi. xxxiv. fig. 16, £ (1886). 

 Odontoptilum sura, Watson, Hesp. Ind. p. 105 (1891). 



? Pterygospidea angulata, Felder, Verh. zool.-bot. Gesellsch. Wien, vol. xii. p. 488 (1862) ; id. Reise 

 Nov., Lep. iii. p. 529, pi. lxxiii. figs. 10, 11, <? (1867). 



We use the name of sura in preference to that of angulata, FelcL, adopted by 

 Watson, which has three years' priority, because we cannot identify Felder's species 

 with any certainty. He gives the habitat of angulata as China and Luzon, and his 

 figure represents a species with a strongly angled band on the fore wing above, such as 

 we have never seen in sura.

! Odontoptilum helias. 

 Pterygospidea helias, Felder, Reise Nov., Lep. iii. p. 529, pi. lxxiii. figs. 12, 13 (1867). 

 Odontoptilum helias, var. helisa, Semper, Schmett. Philipp. p. 311 (1892). 



Hab. Celebes (Felder) ; Luzon, Samar, Bohol, E. Mindanao (Semper). 



A male and female of the variety helisa, Stgr. in litt., from Luzon differ from 

 typical helias in their smaller size and in having the pale preapical fourth of cell 1 a 

 on the fore wing below and a spot near the base of that cell clothed with bluish-white 

 scales. The hair-pencil on the scapulae of the male is brown, very pale in the basal 

 half and dark in its apical half, whereas in helias the entire pencil is blackish brown. 



Odontoptilum htpeeides. 

 Abaratha hyperides, Doherty, Jour. As. Soc. Beng. 1891, p. 195. 



" Very near Pterygospidea helias, Feld., from the Celebes, but the bands and the 

 discal hyaline spots of the fore wing are absent, and the apex of the hind wing is 

 broadly dark. From A. sura it differs in the fore wing, which is almost uniform dark 

 brown above and below. The hind wing is also less variegated above and below, 

 the white area is larger and more uniform, the inner line of spots is obsolete, the outer 

 united, and dark apically, nearly obliterated by white scales in the median spaces. 



" Hab. Sambawa. 



" Another species, more like A. angulatus, was found in Sumba, but no specimens 

 have survived." (Doherty, I. c.) 



We have not seen this species and do not know where the type is.
