discocellular black linos; iibdominnl margin Krci'iiish ^rc}'. Underside groonish yoUow, lighter 
and darker in portions, marked as above, discoidal markings on both wings, lower part ot 
disc of fore wing with blackish patches. 
" Expanse 3j inches." {Moore, l. c.) 
I have received a number of mule specimens fi'om Omei-slum iiud Muupin. 
Refening to its distribution in India, de Nicevillc {1. c.) observes that the 
range of JE. sahadeva extends from Nepal to Shillong, and that it is decidedly 
a rare species. Elwes (Trans. Ent. Soc. ]jond. 1888, p. 357) states that this 
species is rare in Sikkim. 
Euthalia pyrrha, sp. uov. (Plate xxi. fig. 4, $ .) 
Female. Dark olive-green. I'rimaries have an oblique yellowish macular band, somewhat similar 
to that of E. coiifucius ; there are two yellowish or whitish subapical spots ; a broad pale 
band on submarginal area i.s preceded by a blackish band and followed l)y a series of blackish 
lunules on the outer margin ; the stigmata in discoidal cell and submedian interspace are 
outlined in black, and iu shape are very similar to the same marks in E. l-anlama. Secondaries 
have the discoidal mark faintly outlined in blackish ; the central band is indicated by three 
yellowish spots, surrounded with black below costa, and a blackish spot in each interspace to 
the first median, one or both of the last two with yellowish centres ; submarginal band and 
marginal lunules as on primaries. Fringes black, chequered with white. Under surface 
yellowish green ; markings on primaries as above, but the central band is white, and there is 
a patch of black in the submedian interspace below the termination of the band ; the diseal 
area is more or less suffused with blackish : secondaries have the central hand represented by 
a series of six blue-tinted white spots, the fourth often small and sometimes absent, the second 
large and trigonate ; submarginal band indicated by a series of dark green spots. Antennae 
blackish above, reddish beneath ; clubs black above, tipped with reddish. 
Expanse 89-93 millim. 
This species greatly resembles E. kardama on the under surface of secon- 
daries, but the confucius-\\ke band of the primaries at once separates it. In 
one specimen from Omei-shan the central band of secondaries is hardlv 
represented on either surface. 
Occurs in the Province of Kwei-chow and at Moupin and Omei-shan in 
June and July, but appears to be rare. 
All the specimens that 1 have received, five in number, are females ; and as 
these agree with, the male of ]]. sahadeva in the antenuic and character of 
discoidal markings on both siufaces of the wings, I am inclined to think that 
E. fyrrha may ultimately prove to be the female of E. sahadeva, Avhicli occurs 
in the same localities and of which the female is unknown.
