MR. A.. G. BUTLER ON THE BUTTERFLIES OF MALACCA. 
Genus Hesperia, Eabricius. 
1. Hesperia harisa, ( Ismene liarisa) Moore, Proc. Zool. Soc. p. 782 (1865). ? , Malacca. 
2. Hesperia vitta, Butler, Trans. Ent. Soc. p. 498 (1870) ; Lep. Exot. pi. lix. fig. 9 
(1874). d, Malacca. 
The examples from Malacca have two minute transparent dots placed obliquely beyond 
the cell of primaries. I have no opportunity of comparing the type at present, and 
therefore do not know if there is any trace of these dots in the Bornean form. 
3. Hesperia badra, ( Goniloba baclra) Moore, P. Z. S. p. 778 (1865). S $, Malacca. 
Genus Cobalus, Hiibner. 
1. Cobalus elia, (Hesperia elia) Hewitson, Trans. Ent. Soc. ser. 3, vol. ii. p. 489. n. 9 
(1866). d ?, Malacca. The type was described from Sumatra. 
2. Cobalus ciliatus, n. sp. Hark chocolate-brown ; primaries with two small spots 
placed obliquely upon the median interspaces, and three dots in an angular line beyond the 
cell hyaline white ; secondaries with a broad abbreviated transverse band from the ab- 
dominal margin, and the fringe (excepting at apex) white ; body above greyish ; head and 
pro thorax shot with golden green ; abdomen irregularly white at the sides. Primaries 
below as above ; secondaries crossed by a broad angular white band, its lower half twice 
as broad as its upper, connected with the white fringe by a white spur upon the second 
median interspace ; body below white, abdomen laterally banded with black liturm, anus 
brown. Expanse of wings 1 inch 7 lines. ? , Malacca. 
Genus Pamphila, Eabricius. 
Section Gegenes , Hiibner. 
1. Pamphila aria, ( Ismene aria ) Moore, P. Z. S. p. 784 (1865). S ? , Malacca. The 
type was from Bengal. 
2. Pamphila julianus, (. Hesperia juliamis) Latreille, Enc. Moth. ix. p. 763. n. 99 
(1823). Malacca. Originally discovered in Java. 
3. Pamphila Matthias, (Hesperia matthias) Eabricius, Ent. Syst. Suppl. p. 433 (1798). 
S ? , Malacca ; S , Penang. 
Section Pamphila (tyjncal). 
4. Pamphila augias, Linnaeus, Syst. Nat. i. 2, p. 794. n. 257 (1767). d, Malacca; 
Penang. 
5. Pamphila mjssoides, n. sp. Above very like P. mcesa of Moore, deep chocolate- 
brown, banded and spotted with tawny ; below similarly marked to P. mcesa , but suffused 
with deep tawny throughout. Expanse of wings 1 inch 1 line. S ? , Malacca. This 
species is at once distinguished from P. mcesa by the tawny colour of its bands (in 
P. mcesa they are ochreous) ; the outer band of primaries is also somewhat less irre- 
gular ; and the ground-colour of the underside is tawny instead of yellow.
