not mottled, and though the pattern of the anterior wings ib similar, the markings of the posterior wings are 

 distinct, which consist of a basal fascia with dark niarginH ; a regular and similarly coloured and margined 

 fascia near centre, and a somewhat similar marginal fascia. 

 Exp. wings, df and ? , 40 to 46 millim. 



Hak. — Malaj Peninsula ; Province WfiEesley (coll. Disk) ; Malacca (Brit* Mus. and coll, Moore), — 

 Borneo ; Sandakan (Pryer — coll. Bist.). 



The few North Bornean examples I possess only differ from Malaccan specimens by the 

 smaller sub apical yellow fascia to the anterior wings, and. could a long series from both 

 localities be examined that variation would doubtless be found to pervade the species in 

 both areas.

Female. This species is allied to I he preceding (.V. pcrnko), from which it differs by the different 

 shape of the cellular streak and the absence of the yellow sub marginal lines to the anterior wings ; the 

 yellow fasciae to posterior wings are much broader {but this we have already seen is a variable character) ; 

 the markings on the under surface of the wings are darker, larger, and more regular, especially on the 

 anterior wings - 



Exp. wings, 48 to 50 millim. 



Hab. — Burma; Moulmein (Brit. Mus,) — Teuasserim (Brit* Mub.) — Malay Peninsula; Malacca 

 (Pinwill— Brit. Mub.). 



I only know this species from the specimens contained in the British Museum, one of 

 which from Malacca ia here figured.

Male and Female. Wings above rich dark brown, with the following orange-coloured markings: — 

 Anterior wings with a large cellular streuk much resembling that of .V. <linititu/n, but sometimes more oi- 

 lers truncate at its apex, as in the specimen ligurcd ; this is followed by a subapical transverse streak and 

 two irregularly shaped spots, situate one on the area of the median nervules and one on the inner margin ; 

 a broad submarginal fascia, strongly sinuated and toothed interiorly, followed by a submarginal line of the 

 same colour. Posterior wings crossed by two broad fascire, on© near base and the other near outer margin, 

 and a submarginal line of the same colour. Wings beneath ochraceous, the anterior wings with a broad 

 subcostal pale fuscous fascia, which is obliquely detiexed beyond cell, and forms a large looped spot 

 extending from costa to first median nervule ; a pale fuscous fascia beneath cell, which forms an irregularly 

 looped spot beneath and attached to the other looped spot, and which outwardly extends to inner margin ; 

 a pale fuscous submarginal line and the outer margin broadly of the same colour ; posterior wings marked 

 as above, but the colour much paler and the dark portions much narrower. Body above rich dark brown,
