198 NYMPHA.LIDJE. 



cJ 2 • Closely allied to Discophora ; differs from that genus in 

 the absence of vein 10 in the fore wing, and in the 6 by the 

 difference in the secondary sex-marks, there being no trace of the 

 patch of specialized scales on the disc of the hind wing, though 

 the glandular pouch and tuft of short hairs at the base of the 

 dorsal margin of the hind wing are present. There is in addition 

 a small patch of specialized scales at the base of the abdomen 

 beneath. Antennae very long, longer than in Diseopliora : eyes 

 naked ; palpi obliquely porrect, third joint short.

6 $ • Upperside rich ochraceous orange. Fore wing : a spot 

 along the upper portion of the discocellulars, two fine lunate spots 

 beyond, an erect series of four discal spots, a subterminal zigzag 

 narrow band, the apical portion of the costa, the apex and the 

 terminal margin broadly black. Hind wing : a discal irregular 

 transversely elongate suffused mark and two series of lunular 

 continuous marks beyond black ; termen narrowly fuscous. Under- 

 side rich bright ochraceous ; a broad transverse band across both 

 wings from costa of fore wing to the tornus of the hind wing 

 slightly darker ochraceous, defined inwardly by an irregular sinuous 

 and broken, and outwardly by a straighter complete ferruginous 

 line ; some ferruginous spots at the bases of the wings, and on the 

 hind wing a discal series of three or four minute dark ocelli, the 

 lowest white-centred ; outer halves of both fore and hind wing 

 uniform, the black markings of the upperside showing faintly 

 through. Antennae, head, thorax and abdomen bright ochraceous. 



Exp. c? 2 82-87 mm. (3-25-3'42"). 



Hab. Sikhim ; Assam ; Cachar ; Burma and Tenasserim. 



Var. tessellata, Moore, occurs in the same localities. It is a 

 more richly-coloured form than E. eutliymius. It differs in both 

 sexes in the markings on the upperside o\ the wings being broader, 

 restricting the orange-ochraceous ground-colour, the bases of the 

 wing also slightly darker. The fore wing with a median black 

 irregular line in continuation of the black line defining the disco- 

 cellulars.
