its inferior extreicity ■with, bright orange; the inner edge of this area 

 straight, not angulated as in Z). vishnu ; the submarginal red lunules 

 narrower, of a more carmine tint, the terminal one not expanded, further 

 from the outer margin, yet not touching the yellow area ; there arc in 

 fact, as Boisduval says, " sept lunules," and not six lunules and two 

 spots as in D. vishnu. 



9. Terias maroensis, Butler; los. snp. cit. PL XXXVIII. Fig. 2. 



? . Nearly allied to T. excavata of Moore, from India, but of a decidedly 

 deeper yellow (bright sulphur) than the female of that species : the inner 

 edge of the external border decidedly arched, convex, not concave, towards 

 the costa, the sinuation upon the median interspaces not so deep and 

 more oblique (as in T. sari) ; the discal markings on the under surface of 

 secondaries less deiined and arranged in a much less irregular series. 

 Expanse of wings 42 mm.

10. Teuias laeatensis, Butler ; los. sup. cit. PL XXXVIIL Fig. 3. 



3' . Nearly allied to T. lifuana ; above most like my " JapancEO 

 IWias," fig. 10 (Trans. Ent. Soe. 1880, pi. vi.), but with less-pointed 

 primaries and narrower apical border; it, however, belongs to the T.- 

 cesiope group, the primaries below being marked with a curved series of 

 three subapical re:l-brown spots ; other markings much as usual, all well 

 defined ; the discal series of secondaries forming a nearly straight lino 

 between the first subcostal and second median branches. Expanse of 

 wings 39 mm.

13. Belenois consanguis, Butler, loc. sup. cit. 



Nearly allied to S. pitys from Timor, but a little smaller ; the external 

 border of primaries with more oblique inner edge, much broader towards 

 the costa and without any trace of a subapicaL white spot: primaries 

 below white, suffused with sulphur-yellow at the base only; external 

 area black internally, but of a reddish clay-colour towards apex; its 

 inner edge much less irregular than in £. pitys, being sinuated only on 

 the lower radial and lower (or first) median interspaces : eecondaries 

 saffron-yellow, the external border with purplish-black internal, and 

 reddish clay-coloured external half. Expanse of wings 48 mm.
