 Rinaca extensa. (Plate XCIV. fig. 2.) 



<$ . Near to R. thibeta, but considerably larger ; the primaries more elongated and consi- 

 derably more falcated in form ; the ocelli larger, that of the secondaries circular ; the two 

 dark bands across the primaries darker, more regular, oblique, not incurved towards the 

 costa ; the grey area beyond the zigzag discal lines of only two thirds the width and less rosy 

 in colour ; the outer border darker ; the subbasal band of the secondaries dark brown, strongly 

 dentated below the middle ; the discal lines wider apart, the inner one paler, the outer one 

 dark brown ; the discal belt considerably darker ; the submarginal stripe olivaceous instead 

 of gravel-yellow. Expanse of wings 5 inches 9 lines. 



Darjiling (Lidderdale). 



Mr. Moore possesses the female of this species, also from Darjiling ; it differs from the 

 female of R. thibeta in the same way as the male does.
