Stmbrenthia silana, n. sp., PL II, Fig. 9, <3^ . 



^ . Upperside black, forewing with a very regular streak from the 

 base to beyond the cell extending slightly below the median but not 

 touching the subcostal nervure, a subapical irregular streak not quite 

 reaching to the costa or the outer margin, beyond which is a curved 

 narrow lunular line ; a broad band placed obliquely from the second 

 median nervule to the inner margin. Hindwing with a broad discal 

 band, a submarginal one less than half the width of the discal band be- 

 coming attenuated anteriorly, an obsolete (hardly traceable) very fine 

 marginal line ; all these markings bright ochreous paler in the middle. 

 Underside with the markings as above but glossy opaline white, the 

 black ground-colour replaced by prominent black and yellow tesselatious. 

 Hindwing with a discal series of five imperfect somewhat cone-shaped 

 ocelli of moderate size, the three nearest the anal angle centred with 

 brilliant metallic blue ; three lunules of that colour at the anal ano-le. 

 Both wings with the margin black, a submarginal fine line defined with 

 yellow on both sides. 



9 . Larger, the foreiving broader, the outer margin evenly curved. 

 Markings throughout paler, except the blue ones on the underside of the
