Orattia ifoiianii^ Moore, MS. 



Male. Anterior wing olivaceous- brown, darkest towards base, and with the apex broadly lilaceous. 

 Posterior wings olivaceous -brown , with a marginal and submarginsl row of pale spots. Wings beneath 

 olivaceous-brown ; anterior wings with four pale whitish discal spots, the first situated between first and 

 second subcostal nervulea, the second in cell a little before lower disco-cellular nerviile, third between hrst 

 4ind second median nervules, and fourth and largest between third median nervule and submedian nervure; 

 u few marginal white spots near anal angle (in a second unrealised male specimen in my collection there 

 arc traces of a fiubmarguial row of spots, distinct near apex and anal angle). Posterior wings with the 

 marginal and submarginol spots as above, but much paler; a small bluish white spot in and near end of 

 cell, and a series of four spots of the same colour beyond cell and placed between the nervules (in some 

 specimens there are six of these spots). Head blackish ; thorax above and abdomen fuscous. Head and 

 anterior portion of thorax spotted with white .; underside of abdomen spotted with bluish white. Head 

 heneath, sternum, and legs blackish ; palpi, sternum, and extreme base of wings spotted with white. 



Anterior wings provided with an elongate pseudo scent-gland or brand, situate between third median 

 nervule and submedian nervure. 



Female. I have as vet been unable to examine a female specimen from the Peninsula, and as 

 the male here described is of a somewhat varietal character I hesitate to give the diagnosis of the other sex 

 from a different habitat.

The specimen here figured and described is contained in the Godmau and Salvin collection, 

 is labelled " Singapore," and was received from Mr. Drnce. It is the only example of the 

 species I have yet seen from the Malay Peninsula. As will be seen from the description, 

 it is a somewhat varietal form, but until we have seen more specimens from the locality, 

 it would be extremely hazardous to consider it constant in that respect, especially as we have 

 already set-n that these niaonlar character* a it- generally of an inconstant and variable nature 

 in other species.
