yellow ; a wedge-shajjed patcli of pale lilac filling the discoidal area to a little beyond the cell ; a 
pale-edged stripe of this colour crossing the disk a little beyond this patch ; a faint indication of 
a second wider stripe halfway between the first stripe and the outer margin and terminating 
in a large sienna-red patch at external angle ; a fusiform sienna-reddish apical dash ; fringe 
slaty grey tipped with white ; internal border white : secondaries bright chrome-yellow, with 
broad sienna-reddish external border, suffused internally with lilacine and externally with 
yellow ; base of costa and a faintly indicated, line from costa beyond the cell tinted with 
lilac ; two blackish dots at the end of the cell ; fringe as in the primaries : body below creamy 
white, sides of pectus cadmium-yellow ; palpi brownish. Expanse of wings 56 millim. 
Darjiling [Lidderclule, S^c). 
T. subignitus, from Borneo, is exactly like this species on the upper surface, but on 
the under sui'face it differs wholly in colour, though similar in pattern. T. luteoviridatus also 
resembles this species above, but on the under surface, though similar in colour, differs in 
pattern : it is the Drepana rajfflesi of Moore, and occurs in Java and. Sumatra. 
Tanaorhinus dimissus. (Plate CXVII. fig. 3.) 
Geometra dimissa, Wallcer, Cat. Lep. Het. sxii. p. 51 G. u. 20 (1861). 
Sea-green : primaries crossed by two irregularly dentate-sinuate divergent white lines, 
enclosing a black dot at the end of the cell : secondaries with a black dot at the end of 
the cell, and a denticulated white stripe crossing the wing just beyond the middle; face 
testaceous, top of head white ; thorax green ; abdomen white at the sides. Under surface 
of wings pea- green, with a black dot at the end of each discoidal cell, and a dark brown line 
from near the apex of piimaries to the outer third of abdominal margin of secondaries : body 
below white, with the front of pectus pea-green. Expanse of wings 59 millim. 
North India [Buckley] . 
There can be very little doubt that this species occurs in Darjiling. 
Tanaorhinus reciprocatus. (Plate CXVII. fig. 4.) 
Geometra reciprocata, Wallcer, Cat. Lep. Het. sxii. p. 515. u. 17 (1801). 
Dull olive-green : wings marked as in the preceding species, but the outer stripe of the 
primaries and that of the secondaries followed immediately by a series of whitish lunules ; a 
submarginal sei'ies of white spots is also added : thorax greenish, face oehraceous ; top of 
head and abdomen white, the latter tinted with green along the dorsal region. "Wings below 
green, paler than above ; differing from T. dimissus in pattern, from the fact that there are 
two dusky spots at external angle of primaries, and that there is a submarginal scries of dusky 
spots on the secondaries. Expanse of wings 66 millim.
