My collectors failed to meet with this species. Its distinctive character 
appears to be a central series of four black spots on under surface of 
secondaries. 
This species is allied to //. kumara, de Niceville (Journ. Asiat. Soc. Beng. 
1885, p. 121, pi. ii. fig. 10, <3 ),but differs in having a double spot in discoidal 
cell, and the secondaries are more elongate in shape. 
Halpe caBllis, sp. nov. (Plate XLII. fig. 16, d .) 
Male. Blackish brown, clothed about the base of primaries and disc of secondaries with fulvous hairs. 
Sexual brand well defined ; there are six white spots on primaries placed as in H. varia, 
Murra3% but that at end of cell is double. Under surface of primaries fuliginous, much 
suffused with ochreous brown about costa and apex, spots as above : secondaries ochreous 
brown, with very faint indications of white central spots. Fringes whitish above, greyish 
beneath, with faint chequering. Antennae black above, ringed beneath with yeUow ; club 
yellow beneath, tipped with castaneous. 
Expanse 40 millim. 
One male specimen taken in Western China at Chia-kou-ho in August.

Subtus subobscurior cum 4 punctis lutcis, duobus in disco et duobus alteris minimis ad

I have six male specimens from Pu-tsu-fong and Wa-ssu-kow. 
These examples diifer from a hand-coloured drawing of MabiUe's type in 
having the primaries dusted with yellow towards base, and the under surface 
is much more ochreous. 
Halpe Subflava, sp. nov. (Plate XLII. fig. 21, d .) 
Male. Fuliginous brown. The primaries, which are sparingly powdered with ochreouB on costal 
area, have six small semitransparent spots placed as follows : — two, colon-like, in discoidal 
cell ; two towards apex, and one in each median interspace. The sexual brand is well 
formed but not conspicuous. Secondaries have some long silky ochreous hairs on discal area, 
but are without spots. Fringes white, those of primaxies slightly suffused with dusky from
