Viridescente-testacea, suhtus lutea ; abdomen luteuyn ; aim anlicce 

 subtestaceo-virides, sirigis Iransversis fuscescentibus, linea fusca 

 usque ad marginem interiorem flexa^ fascia lata marginali 

 cervina intus valde incisa, linea marginali angulosa\ fusca ^ 

 maculis duabus subapicalibus nigris glauco marginatis ; pos- 

 ticce lutece, fascia exteriore nigra plus minusve lata, 



Ophiodes Tirrhaea, var. A, Guen. Nod. iii. 229. 



Greenish testaceous, luteous beneath. Abdomen luteous. Fore 

 wings green, with a slight testaceous tinge, and with brownish 

 transverse streaks ; a brownish line extending from and rejoining the 

 costa, and touching the interior border; exterior border broadly 

 fawn-colour, much indented on its interior side, and with a brown 

 zigzag marginal line ; it includes near the costa two black glaucous- 

 bordered spots ; reniform spot like that of O. Tirrhcea, but rather 

 larger and more excavated on its exterior side ; costal brown spot 

 triangular, larger than that of O. Tirrhcea. Hind wings luteous, 

 with a more or less broad black exterior border. Length of the 

 body 12 lines; of the wings 29 lines. 



This species seems to be fully as distinct from O. Tirrhcea as is 

 O. hottentota^ and may he chiefly distinguished by the much deeper 

 excavation of the marginal band.
