Cirrochroa is somewhat widely distributed, for, beyond the range of the preceding genus, 

 from India to the Papuan Islands, it is also represented in Australia*

Male. Anterior wings above brownisb-ochraceous with a broad transverse yellow foBcia crossing 

 wing at end of cell and the whole apical area black. Posterior wings brownish-ochraceous, with the 

 following black markings : — a narrow, linear waved fascia crossing wing near end of cell and Btrongly 

 augulated at third median nervule, followed by a row of spots placed between the nervoles (absent between 

 the discoidal and first median nervules) and a marginal and two submarginal much-waved fascia). Wings 

 beneath paler; anterior wings with the central fascia whitish, containing a triangular brownish spot 

 at inner margin; apical area brownish, with two long, ovate, contiguous greyish spots at apes, and an 

 indistinct waved darker submarginal Jineate fascia ; posterior wings with the central black fascia above 

 replaced by a broader pale violaceous fascia beneath, beyond which the colour is more or less shade* \ with 

 violaceous, the black spots margined with reddish and two submarginal pale violaceous fascia?. Body 

 and legs more or less concolorous with wings. 



Female. Besembling the male, but with the anterior wings above with a small subapieal greyish 

 streak, and Wiu-atli with the pale central fascia crossed by a narrow pale fiinualud brownish fa-- in 

 attached to the triangular spot at inner margin; the apical brown area also possesses an indistinct 

 violaceous much-waved fascia. 



Exp. wings, (J and 2 , C5 to 68 millim. 



Hab, — Malay Peninsula ; Penang (coll. Gosse) ; Province Wellesley (colls, Disk and Saiier) ; Malacca 

 (Pinwill— Brit. Mus.) ; Singapore (Wallace). — Borneo (Dmce). 



% Cirrochroa satellita. (Tab, XIX., fig. 9 3 .)

 Soc. 1878, p. 3-42, n. 4. 



Male. Wings above brownish -ochraceous, both wings crossed a little beyond cells by a broad bright 

 ochraceouB fascia, after which the wings are blackish ; the pale fascia of posterior wings contains an 

 incomplete series of black spots placed between the nervules — that at anal angle largest — and two narrow, 

 waved, black submarginal fascia!, the outer of which, above the median nervules, is blended with the 

 posterior black arm. Wiri^s k-tu-nih j.aW. the Mark an-as brownish, the central pale fascia- enntaining 

 at their inner margins a narrower greyish fascia, widest on anterior wings, where it is also more 

 ochraceous ; anterior wings with a submarginal, hinately maeuJar, violaceous fascia, beyond which is a 

 straighter and more distinct pale fascia ; posterior wings with a macular violaceous fascia as on anterior 

 wings, followed by two dark, narrow waved fascife, the series of black spots larger and more continuous. 

 Body and legs moro or less concolorous with wings. 



Exp. wings, <f , 55 to 58 niillim. 



Hab,— Malay Peninsula; Perak (Dr. Townsend— coll, Godm, & Salv.)— Borneo (Druce) ; Sandatan 

 Pryer — colL Dist.)— China ; Hong Kong (coll. Godm. & Salv.), 



This does not appear to be an abundant species, at least so judging from present 

 collections, and is slightly variable in the number of black spots visible on the upper surface 

 of the posterior wings. 



The specimen figured was collected in Perak by Dr. Townsend.
