the base, subequal to outer margin ; cell less than two-thirds the 

 length of costa ; vein 12 reaching costa before end of cell; 

 middle discocellular considerably longer than lower one ; vein 5 

 considerably nearer to 4 than to 6 ; vein 3 well before end of cell ; 

 vein 2 sliglitly nearer to base of wing than to end of cell. Hind 

 wing : outer margin even ; vein 7 immediately before end of 

 cell ; discocellulars faint ; vein 5 not traceable. Female : veins 2, 3, 

 and 4 all close together ; vein 3 about equidistant from 2 and 4 ; 

 vein 2 more than twice as far from base of wing as from end of cell. 

 Male : with a circular glandular patch on hind wing at origin of 

 vein 2, distorting the lower margin of cell, and altering the relative 

 positions of veins 2, 3, and 4. The male is also furnished with a 

 short tuft of hair attached to the underside of the fore wing close 

 to the origin of vein 1 .

These two forms occur together in Burma, Sikhim, and the

35. Genus Onryza, nov. (Plate II. fig. 5.) 



Type, meiktila, de N. 



Antennae and palpi as in Halpe. Fore wing : inner margin con- 

 siderably longer than outer margin ; cell less than two-thirds the 

 length of costa ; vein 12 reaching costa well before end of cell ; middle 

 discocellular considerably longer than lower one ; vein 5 nearer to 

 bottom of cell than to vein 6 ; vein 3 well before end of cell, about 

 equidistant from 2 and 4 ; vein 2 nearer to end of cell than to base 

 of wing. Hind wing : outer marghi evenly rounded ; vein 7 well 

 before end of cell, straight, upper margin of cell curving downwards 

 at the bifurcation ; discocellulars outwardly oblique ; vein 5 not 

 traceable ; veins 2, 3 and 4 all close together, lower margin of cell 

 bent upwards at vein 2. Hind tibitc with two pairs of spurs, the 

 upper pair minute. Male with a patch of long recumbent hairs on 

 the upperside of the hind wing, attached along vein 8 from close to 

 the base of the wing.
