P. 591. G. acilia gades subsp. nov. Approximates C. acilia dola Fruhst. from Fergusson, but it exhibits gades. 
still more extensive white bands, so that gades may be considered the Cyrestis with the widest bands. From 
dola as well as tervisiaFruhst., gades can be distinguished besides by a reduced red-yellow anal area of the hind- 
wings. Type from the Aroa River, British New Guinea, an entirely similar race also in the Yule Island. 
P. 593. Chersonesia sanna Fruhst. originates from the Batu Islands. A similar race was discovered 
also in Pulo-Babi, while Chersonesia peraka (p. 594) was found in Simalur. 
P. 610. Neptis nycteus Nicev. is not a race, but only the $ of N. manasa Moore. Evans has ascer¬ 
tained the identity of the two forms. 
P. 615. Phaedyma columella kankena Evans is a darkened, small race of the Nicobares. Icankena. 
P. 618. Neptis shepherdi ahas subsp. nov. is closely allied to the Australian name-form, though all ahas. 
the spots and bands, particularly those of the hindwings, are narrower. Yule Island. 
P. 619. Neptis melba Evans. Upper surface similar to N. naraycina Moore , but a spot is absent at melba. 
the base of the third interval. Beneath it is pale ochreous, but the apical marginal lines of the forewings and 
the cliscal bands of the forewings are almost extinct. Sikkim, very rare, 1 C in the British Museum, 2 more 
in the Coll. Evans. 
P. 625. Pantoporia pravara tamesa Fruhst. 3 the most allied to esra Fruhst. from Java, but of a smaller tamesa. 
habitus. Claviform spot of the forewing narrower, the subapical spots, however, in spite of the small size of 
the specimens larger than in specimens from Java. Island of Bali, type in the Coll. Martin. Flying time August. 
Very nearly allied to tamesa is the -pravara- race of East Java which I introduced as Pantoporia pravara 
caprotina Fruhst. It agrees with tamesa in the small size as well as the considerable transcellular spots of the caprotina. 
forewings. But caprotina differs from esra from West Java by its paler under surface and the considerably 
narrowed, white submarginal bands of the hindwings. East Java. Type from the Tengger Mountains, about 
800 m, collected by H. Fruhstorfer. 
P. 626. Pantoporia perius hierasus subsp. nov.. Specimens from West Sumatra differ from these of hierasus. 
the name-type from Kwangtung by shortened though broadened white spots of the forewings. The median 
band of the hindwings more than a third broader. P. perius avitus subsp. nov. A melanotic insular race, recogni- avitus. 
zable by the reduction of all white spots and bands. The components of the submarginal band of the hindwings 
are, on account of their small size, greatly isolated. On the under surface of both wings the black anteterminal 
line appears twice as broad, the white waves accompanying it considerably narrowed. Island of Lombok, 
flying time May-June, at an elevation of about 600 m. Very rare, only one $ in my collection. 
P. 627. P. euloca Shelf., described from Sarawak, might be placed near P. asura from which it differs eidoca. 
by a narrowed white band, exhibiting a double instead of single row of submarginal spots of the hindwings. 
P. 632. Pantoporia selenophora gitgita Fruhst. 3 closely allied to jadava Felder, but it differs from gitgita. 
this Javanese race by the widened white median band of both wings, as well as by the more imposing white 
subapical spots of the forewings. Island of Bali. 
P. 634. Pantoporia nefte yasana Fruhst. $ the nearest to nefte Cr. from Java, but with still more exten- yasana. 
sive white bands of the upper surface of both wings. $ remarkably different. The median band of the red- 
brown $ scarcely half as broad as in the nefte-Q from Java. Another form being analogous to the $-form of 
gandara Fldr. differs from the latter by the lighter greyish-brown bordering of the nearly whitish transverse 
bands. Island of Bali. 
Pantoporia marguritha balina Fruhst. $ differing from marguritha Fruhst. by more purely white and balina. 
broader bands of the upper surface as well as the entirely duller under surface. Bali, flying time August. 
P. 639. Limenitis houlberti Oberth., an interesting, entirely isolated species from Tseku, North Yunnan, houlbcrii. 
3 upper surface brown with a reddish-brown, black-streaked submarginal band and a broader loam-yellow 
median band being interrupted beyond the cellule. Under surface with a faded marking, an extensive bluish- 
green basal zone of the hindwings as well as a black submarginal cucullate-band on both wings. 
P. 641. Limenitis aemonia vicina Eecke, from Simalur, one of the forms of the satellite islands of Su- vicina. 
matra forming the connection between L. procris L. and L. aemonia Weym. The black spotting resembling 
more procris than aemonia. 
P. 646. Parthenos sylvia theriotes subsp. nov. An intermediate form between P. guineensis Fruhst. thcriotes. 
(120 b) and P. pherekides Fruhst. (120 a), though it is more closely allied to the latter race than to that from 
Finschhafen. 3 to be separated from EC of the Milne Bay by the darker ground-colour of the upper surface, 
but more extensive and more stretched spots of the forewings. The intranerval striation of the postmedian 
zone of the hindwings neater than in P. pherekides. The black submarginal band of the under surface narrower,
