66 L. de Niceville — Second List of Sihlcim Butterflies. [No. 2, 



characterised as follows : — Forewing with ten spots (sometimes eleven in 

 the female), viz., two oblong at the end of the cell, disjunct in the male, 

 but connected at their inner and opposite ends in the female, three apical, 

 and five discal in the male (sometimes six in the female) forming an oblique 

 series extending from the submedian nervure to the discoidal nervule in the 

 male (but sometimes to the subcostal nervure or first discoidal nervule in 

 the female) of which spots the first is subtriangular, touches the submedian 

 nervure and is subequal to the fourth, the second in the same space with 

 the first, is equal to the first subapical, and lies close to, but does not touch, 

 the first median nervule, the third the largest of all, is equal to or rather 

 larger than the first and fourth put together, and acute angled at its outer 

 end, the fourth is rhomboidal, the fifth rather larger than the second and the 

 sixth sometimes present in the female is shaped somewhat like one of the 

 strokes of a section sign (§). Hindwing above with a small oval discal 

 spot sometimes accompanied by a very minute dot in front of the third 

 median nervule. On the underside of this wing there are four or five discal 

 spots. Wings above and below rich dark vandyke brown, the spots lustrous, 

 semitransparent white. Expanse 2'2 to 2*4! inches.

 One female at 3,000 feet elevation. 



^Satarupa hhagava^ Moore. 



*? Hesperia semamora, Moore. 

 Since the publication of my first paper, Mr. Moore in his " Lepidoptera 

 of Ceylon" and elsewhere has defined many new genera and altered the 

 synonomy of several species, all of which I have tentatively adopted here* 

 This will account for the frequent changes in nomenclature that I have 

 been obliged to make in this list.
