HALPE. 623 
Female. Similar to the male, but with a small more or less triangular whitish spot in the sub- 
median interspace resting against the nervure. 
Expanse 40 millim. 
Occurs in Western China in June and July. I have received specimens 
from Omei-shan, "Wa-ssu-kow, Chia-tiug-fu, and Kwei-chow. 
Halpe latris, sp. nov. (Plate XLII. fig. 17, 6 .) 
Male. Fuliginous, powdered with ochreous, especially on the basal and inner marginal areas of 
primaries and discal area of secondaries, the latter with some long silky hairs of the same colour. 
Primaries have seven subdiaphanous creamy spots placed as follows : — two at end of the 
discoidal cell, one in each median interspace, and three subapical, the costal one minute. 
Sexual brand well defined, but not conspicuous. Fringes whitish grey, those of primaries 
chequered with the ground-colour, and those of secondaries tinted with yellow towards outer 
angle. Under surface fuliginous, costa and apical third deeply suffused with ochreous brown ; 
spots as above, but suffused with dusky ; there are indications of the sexual brand, the 
lower preceded by a whitish longitudinal dash ; secondaries ochreous brown with a whitish 
spot in each median interspace, and one above towards costa ; following these spots there 
are some pale elongate marks ; submedian interspace has a fuliginous streak increasing in 
width towards outer margin ; fringes as above, but those of secondaries are more strongly 
chequered in the middle. Antennse black above, shaft ringed with buff beneath; clubs 
tipped with castaneous. 
Expanse 34 millim. 
Occurs at Ta-chien-lu in July, but appears to be scarce. 
This species is closely allied to H. sitala, de Niceville (Journ. Asiat. Soc. 
Beng. 1885, p. 121, pi. ii. fig, 5, 6 ), from S. India, but differs chiefly in having 
a blackish triangular streak in the submedian interspace on under surface 
of secondaries. 
Halpe bivitta. 
Pamphila bivitta, Oberthiir, Etud. d'Eutom. xi. p. 28, pi. vi. fig. 46 (1886). 
" Las quatre ailes en dessus sent brunes, entourees d'une frange plus claire qui est entrecoupee de 
noiratre aux ailes superieures dont I'apex est plus obscur que le fond des ailes. Une tache 
cellulaire, trois subapicales juxtaposces et deux infracellulaires en echelon, jaunatres, avec 
nn reflet brillant qui leur donne line apparence vitreuse, sont les seules que contiennent les 
ailes superieures en dessus ; les inferieures sout sans aueune tache. Mais il y a chez le m.ale 
aux ailes superieures, au-dessous de la tache cellulaire jaunatre, une sorte de bouton velu 
jaunatre. 
brun rougeatre, sauf le disque des superieures qui est noiratre ; cellcs-ci reproduisant les 
taches du dessus et en outre ornees d'une raugee maculaire, submarginale, jaune pale mat, 
qui descend droit du bord costal vers le bord infericur. Les ailes inferieures sont pourvues 
de deux traits argentes, droits, nets, assez longs ; I'un d'eux est surmonte d'une petite tache
