beneath costa from before middle to near apex, a cloudy grey quadrate 

 spot in disc at 3 / 4 connected with costa by a transverse mark, and a 

 subterminal series of irregularly placed cloudy grey dots or strigulae: 

 cilia ochreous-whitish. Hindwings 4 and 5 stalked; whitish-grey-ochreous; 

 cilia concolorous. 



Java, Buitenzorg; one specimen. A distinct form. 



ADELIDAE. 



Nemotois pecuniosa n. sp.

 but well separated above. Palpi clothed with very long rough blackish 

 hairs. Antennae blackish, basal joint purple. Thorax shining coppery-

 gently arched, apex obtuse, termen slightly rounded, oblique; 7 — 9 sepa- 

 rate ; yellow ; a shining coppery-bronze streak along costa from base to 

 a small silvery spot before middle, extended at base to dorsum, edged 

 beneath by suffused black irroration ; two silvery spots edged with a few 

 black scales transversely placed and nearly confluent in disc before middle, 

 and a third similar spot beyond upper of these and somewhat nearer 

 costa; a rather irregular transverse black line at 3 / 5 , somewhat inwards- 

 oblique from costa, followed on costa by a yellow spot beyond which is 

 a somewhat incurved transverse shade of suffused black irroration reaching 

 half across wing, remainder of posterior area purple irregularly suffused

Sumatra, Tapanoel, in December; one specimen, "on top of Sorik 

 Berapi near a triangulation post" (v. Hasselt). Near aurisparsella from 

 Borneo, but in that species, besides other differences, the eyes of <ƒ touch 

 on crown, and the termen of forewings is less oblique.
