6. Nacaduba sp. ? (Tab, XXI. t fig. 7 5 .) 



I have received three female specimens of this species, all more or less varying in the 

 markings beneath, and as I am still without the other sex I refrain from precise identification 

 for the present. It is clearly somewhat closely allied to the A 7 , kankena, Feld.* 



Genus EVERES. 



Ever**, Habner, Vera. bek. Sohmetl p. 09 (1816 j ; Moore, Lep. Cayl. vol. i. p. 85 (1881). 



Evtres is closely allied to the two preceding genera. From Cattalitts, although so different in 

 colour and markings, it is really only structurally differentiated by the length of the costal nervure ; whilst 

 from Nacaduba, to which it is more superficially allied, the position of the first subcostal nervule is alone 

 sufficient to distinguish it. 



The extent of this genus is at present undetermined, and therefore we can only say that 

 its area embraces (but is probably not confined to) Southern and Central Europe, and eastward 

 throughout the Oriental region.
