Hab. Perak, Pulo Laut (Doherty) ; Java (Fruhstorfer) ; Sikkim (Knyvett). 



Watsonia, gen. no v. 



Antenna? half as long as the costa ; club moderate ; apiculus acuminate, bent almost 

 at a right angle, two-thirds as long as the club. Palpi appressed, second joint densely 

 scaled, third almost concealed. Fore wing : distal two-thirds of the costa straight, 

 dorsum two-thirds as long as the costa, about one-sixth longer than the termen ; 

 vein 5 straight, a trifle nearer to vein 4 than to vein 6, vein 12 approaching 11 in its 

 apical fourth, base of cell 10 one-third longer than that of cell 9, of cell 8 about half 

 that of cell 9, of cells 6 and 7 mere points, base of cell 3 about half as long as that 

 of cell 4 and giving off a recurrent vein, that of cell 2 nearly or quite as long as the 

 first median segment ; transverse vein nearly parallel with the termen. Hind wing 

 suborbicular, a little longer than broad ; termen nearly straight between veins 1 b 

 and 3 ; first and second subcostal and median segments subequal ; cell less than half 

 as long as the wing ; transverse vein concave, slightly angulated at the origin of 

 vein 5. No hyaline spots in either wing. Tibial epiphysis present ; hind tibia? with 

 two pairs of spurs. 



Differs from Kerana in the shorter antenna?, straighter costa to the fore wing, the 

 position of vein 5, and the shorter base to cell 3 in the same wing. 



! Watsonia swinhoei, n. sp. (Plate XX. fig. 6, 6 .) 



6 . Upperside deep brown with a dull purple shade, except on the apical region of 

 the fore wing. Underside brown : fore wing with the dorsum broadly pale brown and 

 the apical region ochreous brown; hind wing with a faint purple shade. Fringes 

 brown. Antennae, palpi, body, and legs concolorous with the wings, antenna? a little 

 paler in front. 



$ . Similar to the male, but a little larger and paler. 



Expanse, d 47, $ 54 mm. 



Hab. Khasia hills (fide Swinhoe). 



Described from one pair given to me by Col. Swinhoe as a new genus and species. 

 There are other specimens in Col. Swinhoe's collection. 



Kerana. 

 Kerana, Distant, Rhop. Mai. p. 402 (1886) ; Watson, P. Z. S. 1893, p. 115. Type armatus, Druce. 

 No hyaline spots on either wing. Species brown or black above, generally with an 

 oblique yellow or red-yellow band on the fore wing. Antenna? more than half as long
