EUTHALIA. 
139 
In some of the male specimens the markings are creamy white, and in a 
few females they are pure white. The width of the bands is variable in both 
sexes ; in one or two examples of the male the spots forming the band on 
primaries are very small, and tlie inner portions of the lower ones much 
suffused with the ground-colour. Tlie bronze tinge on the primaries varies 
in intensity ; one specimen has all the wings suffused with yellowish. 
Euthalia hebe. (Plate XXI. fig. 7, d .) 
Euthalia hebe, Leeclij Entomologist, xxiv., Suppl. Jan. p. 4 (1891). 
Male. Olive-green, suffused with yellowish. The yellowisTi central fascia is composed of seven 
more or less quadrate spots, the upper five of which are placed in a series running from 
middle of costa towards inner angle, and the last two are situated further in, and are directly 
under the third spot of the whole series ; towards apex are three other yellowish spots, the 
first on the costa, and the last just above third spot of central series ; the discal cell is crossed 
by two yellow bars, and clouded with yellow beyond termination of cell. Secondaries have a 
broad yellow central fascia terminating at tlie submedian nervure. Under surface pale sage- 
green ; the markings as above, but those of primaries are bordered with black towards inner 
angle. Antenna) dark brown, tipped with black. 
Expanse 80 millim. 
I have two males from Chang-yang (native collector), and two from 
Omei-shan. 
This species is unlike any Euthalia with which I am acquainted. The 
second and third subapical spots and the initial pair of central series are 
really the inner and outer portions of two longitudinal bars, whose centres 
are occupied by fuliginous clouds. It appears to be a very scarce insect.

Kirby, Rhopal. Exot. pt. xvii. {Euthalia) p. 8, pi. iii. figs. 3, 4, 6 (1891). 
Male. Pale yellowish brown, with olivaceous reflections ; the markings are very like those of 
Euthalia (Adolias) anijie, Hewitson*, but the outer edge of the central band is less indented ; 
the second transverse band is nearer the outer margin, and there are no indications of any 
round spots on the space between these bands ; below the median nervure is a large, ill- 
defined, triangular, fuscous-brown patch, limited externally by the central band, and extending 
upwards as far as the second median nervule. Secondaries brown, tinged with olivaceous, 
with a l)road yellow patch occupying the costal half of the wing, but not quite extending to 
the outer margin. Under surface yellowish, the inner marginal area of secondaries tinged 
with green ; the markings are similar to those of E, anyie, but there are no pale spots on the
