248 MESSES. H. J. ELWES AND JAMES EDWARDS : 



AUGIADES BOUDDHA. 



'Pamphila bouddha, Mabille, Ann. Soc. Ent. Er. 1876, p. lvi. 

 Augiades bouddha, Leech, Butt. China &c. p. 603, pi. xli. figs. 7 ? , 14 <J (1893-94). 



Closely resembles A. siva, Moore, but the spots on the hind wing are larger and 

 more quadrate. 



Hah. Moupin (David). 



! Augiades bouddha, var. consors. 

 Augiades bouddha, var. consors, Leech, t. c. p. 604, pi. xli. fig. 10, $ . 



We believe that this insect, which comes from Moupin, is really the female of 

 A. bouddha, and that the female specimen from Omei-shan, figured on Leech's plate 

 xli. fig. 7, belongs to another species. Mr. Leech himself observes that the Moupin 

 female, the original of his plate xli. fig. 10, agrees better in the colour of the spots 

 on the hind wing with the type male of bouddha figured by him than the Omei-shan 

 female, the original of his plate xli. fig. 7 ; at the same time, the latter, which has 

 the spots on the hind wing bright fulvous instead of white, agrees very well with 

 Mabille's description of bouddha, female. The specimens figured appear to be the 

 only ones which Mr. Leech had seen, and we have seen no others. 



! Augiades brahma. (Plate XXV. fig. 61 b.) 



Pampldla brahma, Moore, P. Z. S. 1878, p. 691, pi. xlv. fig. 8. 

 Telicota brahma, Watson, Hesp. Ind. p. 57. 



Hab. Masuri, N.W. Himalayas {Lang) ; Kumaon (Ramsay) ; Fort White, Chiii 

 hills, 7000 ft, (fide de Niceville). 



The differences between A. siva and brahma, as given in the table, are well marked 

 and constant ; therefore the occurrence of the latter species in the Chin hills, where 

 A. siva would be expected, is very curious. 



! Augiades crateis. (Plate XXV. fig. 61«.) 



Augiades crateis, Leech, Butt. China &c. p. 603, pi. xli. figs. 9 ? , 11 d (1893-94). 



Differs from A. brahma, Moore, in being larger, darker, and more strongly marked, 

 especially on the hind wing below, and in the male genitalia ; both have the whitish 

 line on the black sex-mark in the male. 



Hab. Omei-shan, Chia-kou-ho (Leech). 



! Augiades ochracea. (Plate XXIV. fig. 60.) 



Pamphila ochracea, Bremer, Bull. Acad. Pet. iii. p. 473 (1861) ; id. Lep. Ost-Sib. p. 33, pi. i. fig. 11 



(1864). 

 Pamphila rickuchina, Butl. Cist. Eut. ii. p. 275 (1878). 

 Augiades ochracea, Leech, Butt. China &c. p. 605 (1893-94).
