Kesembles /. satwa, de Nicev., so closely that the differences only need be noticed. 

 Fore wing with a dark purple shade throughout ; no pale spot in cell 7, no modification 

 of veins 1 and 2 by way of sex-mark ; the yellow colour on the hind wing below more 

 extensive but much less bright ; club of antennas pure white beneath.

The hind wing below is described as " ferruginous-ochreous, glossed and marbled with 

 purple," and as having " a dark brown spot in the cell and a series of five or six 

 similar spots placed around the cell." The figure shows the termen of the hind wing 

 below rather broadly and suffusedly brown. 



Col. Swinhoe has kindly lent us an insect from Sikkim (Monro), labelled by Mr. de 

 Niceville " Isoteinon flavipennis, de Niceville, $ ," which agrees fairly well with the 

 figure above cited. The underside of the hind wing of this specimen is dull red- 

 yellow, darker next the termen, with seven dark purple-brown spots, one near 

 the middle of cell 7, one near the middle of the upper edge of the cell, and a 

 postmedian series of five others placed one each in cells 1 b, 2, 3, 4-5, and 6, and 

 running parallel to the termen. The fore wing is remarkable for the large size of the 

 hyaline spot in cell 6, which is oblong and nearly as large as that in cell 3 ; the one in 

 cell 7 is punctiform. In cell la on the fore wing above there is a yellowish-white spot 

 next vein 1 a beyond the middle.

ZOGEAPHETUS FLAVALUM.

Having regard to the statement in the original description of this species that 

 there are " no secondary male sexual characters," it is well to note that in the 

 type specimen (kindly lent to me by Mr. Rothschild) there is a tuft of long pale hair- 

 scales occupying the middle third of the dorsum of the fore wing above directed very 

 obliquely outward and upward and reaching as far as vein 1 a. It is, however, just 

 possible that this tuft may have been misplaced in setting the insect, and that its 

 normal position is on the underside of the fore wing, as in some other species.
