 Three males from Christmas Pass. 



In addition to the above there are three specimens of Terias 

 that I am unable to assign satisfactorily to any of the species 

 known to me. One is a male from Christmas Pass, which in the 

 form and development of the hind-marginal border on the upper- 

 side is intermediate between T. wthiopica and T. buileri, and on 

 the underside, although with much more distinct markings 

 than the latter, is much more faintly marked than the former and 

 has only the faintest indication of the ferruginous blotch near the 

 apex of the fore wings. The other two are females, from Christmas 

 Pass find Mineni Valley respectively, and are of a very pale whitish 

 yellow above, but of a rather yellower tint beneath ; on the 

 upperside there is no trace of any hind-marginal border in the 

 hind wings, and the border in the fore wings is of the width and 

 shape of that presented by the South-African female T. floricola, 

 Boisd., while the underside markings are extremely faint, without 

 any trace of the subapical blotch, and in one example scarcely 

 visible except as regards the terminal discocellular and (in hind 

 wings) subbasal ones. These females approach the white and 

 yellowish-white West-African examples which in collections are 

 usually placed as female T. senegalensis, Boisd.; but I have never been 

 able to identify this species, Boisduval (Sp. Gen. Lep. i. p. 672) 

 describing with extreme brevity merely a yellow form from 

 " Senegal," as very like T. hecabe (L.) but with the underside 

 markings exceedingly faint, and giving no note whatever of the sexes 

 or their differences.

Two males and a female from Christmas Pass, taken on 22nd 

 and 26th February. The males have the hincl-marginal black 

 markings more developed than usual, and the female is of the 

 typical heavily black-clouded form but with the hind-marginal 

 border of the hind wings less broad.
