A REVISION OF THE ORIENTAL HESPERIID^E. 241 



! Notocrypta QUADRATA, n. sp. (Plate XX. fig. 3, cJ .) 



a . Nearest to K feisthamelii, from which it differs in the general direction of the 

 termen of the fore wing, which forms approximately a right angle with the dorsum, 

 and in having the white band, which is cut short by vein 1 a and the upper edge of the 

 cell, broader and more regular in outline ; there are usually no hyaline spots, except 

 those forming the band, but this is not a feature of much importance, as one specimen 

 has a hyaline point near the middle of cell 4. On the underside the band is continued 

 to the costa by an opaque white patch. 



Expanse 365-085 mm. 



Hab. Kina Bala, Borneo (Waterstradt). 



Described from two specimens in coll. Elwes received from Dr. Staudinger, who has 

 others from the same locality. 



! NOTOCRYPTA PARALYSOS.

 Notocrypta paralysos, Watson, Hesp. Ind. p. 127 (1891). 



Though this species has the genitalia characteristic of N . feisthamelii, the pure white 

 spots on the hind wing below, two in number, distinguish it with certainty. 

 Hab. Andamans (de Roepstorff). 



! Notocrypta basiflava. 



Plesioneura basiflava, de Niceville, Jour. As. Soc. Beng. 1838, p. 290, pi. xiii. fig. 7, 6 . 

 Notocrypta basiflava, Watson, Hesp. Ind. p. 130 (1891). 



Hab. Nilgiris (Hampson). 



Notocrypta inornata, n. sp. (Plate XXI. fig. 15, 8 .) 



d . Upperside dark brown : fore wing with a large oblong cell-spot, notched on its 

 outer edge, and a large irregular oblong spot occupying about the middle third of 

 cell 2 pare white, and forming together an oblique abbreviated discal band ; a white 

 point near the basal third of cell 3. Underside of fore wing as the upperside, save 

 that the outer half of cell 1 a is almost entirely occupied by the white subtornal 

 blotch. Body, antennae, and legs concolorous with the wings ; club of the antennae 

 whitish beneath. Second joint of palpi clothed with black and grey hairs intermixed. 



Expanse 41 mm. 



Hab. Kina Balu, Borneo (Waterstradt). 



Described from a single example in coll. Staudinger. 



Notocrypta monteithi.
