Additions and Corrections 
to the Indo-Australian Nymphalidae. 
P. 464: Penthema adelma Fldr. was recently found in Kwantung. Specimens of my collection belong 
to a special form with a parted spot before the apex and larger transcellular and submarginal spots of the fore¬ 
wings. 
P. 470: Cupha madestes zosima subsp. nov. It differs from C. madestes Hew. by the duller yellowish- 
brown median band of the forewing projecting convex between the middle and posterior median, as well as by 
the hindwings being brightened up in the submarginal area, which make the black postdiscal spots of the under 
surface distinctly visible. The red-brown marginal area of the under surface is divided by more imposing pale 
loam-yellow spots. The light oclireous median zone narrower, proximally bordered by a more intense reddish 
yellow. Island of Woodlark. Quite a number in the Coll. F ruhstorler. 
P. 472: Niceville confines the occurrence of Atella alcippe cervina Btlr. to the Yule Island. I have 
now received similar specimens from the Island of Woodlark. The race from the Humboldt Bay was separated 
as arid Nicev. Ground-colour above somewhat paler and the wing-contour shorter than in arruana Fldr. 
P. 483: Cynthia arsinoe agatho subsp. nov. Approximating melena Fruhst. from New Mecklenburg, 
but of a smaller habitus, the white patches of the forewings more extensive, less dull. The hindwings more 
intensely red-yellow with much broader black submarginal spots. Under surface of the forewings again of a 
purer white, the hindwings, however, throughout darkened. New Hannover. 
P. 484: Cynthia sapor lando subsp. nov. $ on both surfaces darker red-yellow than C. obscura Ribbe, 
the black dots more prominent, as well as the whitish-violet subapical spots of the under surface of the fore¬ 
wings. The upper surface of the hindwings with more intensely yellow intraradial spots, but reduced white 
parts in the anal angle. $ still more subject to melanism; the yellowish-green macular bands of the forewings 
almost covered by blackish shades. The white filling between the black undulate bands of the hindwings more 
extensive. Under surface entirely altered, of a rich purple red-brown, instead of greenish yellow. The white 
median band of the hindwings narrowed, the red-brown stripes, however, more extensive. Island of Choiseul 
of the Salomons. 
P. 493: Terinos ter pander blachieri Fruhst. $$ above slightly approximating T. ter pander natunensis 
Fruhst ., though with a less extensive intramedian red-yellow submarginal band of the hindwings, which is 
generally more darkened and, in the 9, reduced to a rudimentary stripe. Ground-colour of the upper surface 
dark bluish-violet, approximating more the T. Clarissa- forms than those of the terpcmder-hrariches. $ above 
about like the $ of ter pander teos Nicev. from Sumatra, but the distal band of the forewings longer, more 
extensive; the basal area of the hindwings, however, confined to a roundish macula before the cell-apex. 3 
beneath decidedly more approximating the teos-£ from Sumatra than T. ter pander robertsia Btlr. from Perak. 
The ground-colour as well as the longitudinal striping, however, considerably darkened, the greyish-violet 
parts of the basal zone of both wings in teos are changed into a dull smoke-brown. The red-brown submarginal 
dots of the hindwings smaller, the violet bordering of the two anteterminal undulate bands of the hindwings 
of a more intense violet blue and particularly the proximal one greatly narrowed. — blachieri is the most intensely 
coloured branch of the collective species, which we were hitherto able to ascertain on the Continent only from 
the Malayan Peninsula. Thus we may almost positively expect another race from Siam, which, of course, 
is then going to form an intermediate form from the lightest and large-spotted robertsia to the most poorly 
coloured blachieri. 
P. 493: Terinos terpander Hew. 1862 is synonymous to T. nympha Wall. (1869). For T. nympha Fruhst. 
having been enumerated on p. 495, another name must be substituted. I propose Terinos praestigiosa nom. nov. 
P. 495: Terinos militum is a proper species, not a local race as it was erroneously dealt with on p. 495. 
In the Museum of Geneva there are T. militum- specimens from Cochin China. 
P. 506: Place Cethosia cydippe L. instead of C. chrysippe L. as the oldest name. 
Cethosia cydippe salwattensis Fruhst. The white oblicpie band of the forewing about like in claudilla 
Fruhst. and lucina Fruhst. from Jobi, narrower than in from Mysole. Hindwing with a series of pronounced 
yellow submarginal spots appearing beneath as an enlarged white periphery of the black lunae. The black 
marginal area of the hindwings throughout more reduced than in Mysol-^^. — Salwatti. Type in the British 
Museum.
