E. magna Swinh. (44 b). palpi, antennae, head and anterior part of thorax light yellowish-grey, 
otherwise the thorax and forewings are dark grey and speckled with black, abdomen dark brown. Forewing 
with a broad yellow marginal band proximally bordered undulately, and with a large black spot in the upper 
discoidal area. Hind wing lighter grey than forewing, with a whitish marginal band. Beneath the forewing 
is grey with a light yellow marginal band, hindwing whitish. Expanse of wings: 56 mm. E lighter than $, 
Fore wing with a narrower whitish-yellow marginal band, a pale discal line as in the $ and besides with a pale 
proximal line which is twice sharply broken. Hindwing almost purely white. Abdomen with a golden browm 
anal brush. Expanse of wings: 44 mm. Khasia Hills. 
E. cina sp. nov. (43 c) from Kina Balu resembles celebesicola Strand (43 c), but the yellow is much 
lighter, the dark dusting finer and more scanty, beneath the forewing is black in the basal half, in the terminal 
half yellow without a black longitudinal band in the dorsal area, the forewing has above traces of two lighter 
submedian transverse lines, extending subparallel to each other and to the margin and being less distant from 
each other than from the margin, resp. from the base. Hindwing black with yellow fringes and marginal line, 
beneath the yellow marginal band is considerably broader (in the costal area almost reaching the middle). -—- 
Different from E. anna Sivinh. and others by the palpi not being blackened on the sides. Expanse of wings: 
E 32, ^ 41 mm. (Coll. Seitz and Zoolog. Museum Berlin). 
E. phaea Hmps. (47 e). Blackish-brown. Forewing with an indistinct antemedian line, a black 
discocellular spot, a whitish postmedian line, a subterminal row of white moon-spots as well as some black and 
some olive marks in the marginal area. Expanse of wings: 22 mm. Khasis. 
E. flavociliata Sivinh. (44 a). Allied with E. conspersa Fldr. (45 k), but browner, finely dusted purple- 
brown, fringes ochreons-yellow etc. Abdomen brown with an ochreous-whitish anal brush, head and collar 
ochreous, thorax brown with some ochreous hair in front and on the sides. Expanse of wings: 49 mm. Perak. 
E. recraba Swinh. (44 b). In E and $ antennae, thorax and forewings are light chocolate; forewing 
with 2 light, sinuate transverse lines which are both single in the <5\ whereas the postmedian one of the 2 
is double; in the E the discocellular spot is brown and very indistinct, in the $ black and very prominent; 
E with some white spots at the margin, in the $ the white colouring of the marginal area is more extensive. 
Hindwing white. Abdomen black with an ochreous anal brush. Expanse of wings: E 39, $ II mm. Java. 
E. renifera Sivinh. (44 f). E ochreous-brown, antennae black with a whitish shaft, forewing towards 
the margin lighter and with an antemedian brown double line extending obliquely from the middle of the costal 
margin to the basal third of the posterior margin, as well as with a brown patch at the cell-end, a discal 
brown band and black marginal spots. Hindwing brownish-black. Expanse of wings: 19.6 mm. India. 
E. inconcisa Wkr. (44 e). Head and thorax light yellow. Abdomen black with black anal wool. Fore- 
wing light lemon-coloured, strewn with black scales forming very indistinct antemedian, median and post¬ 
median bands. Hindwing white with ochreous fringes. Expanse of wings-: E 36, 48 mm. Sikkim. Khasia 
Hills; Sultanpore. 
E. negrita Hmps. (44 h, misprinted into nigrita). E'- body black, anal brush orange. Legs whitish. 
Wings black, at the base white, this colour sometimes (except the costal margin of the forewing) extending 
to the middle; fringes sometimes white at the tips. $: white, hued blackish, especially in the marginal area. 
Expanse of wings: E 33, $ 40 mm. Sikkim. 
E. renominata Hmps. (= uniform is Hmps.) E- head, thorax and forewing smoky-brown, the latter 
with a lighter costal margin and fringes. Abdomen and hindwings pale. Expanse of wings; 36 mm. Nilgiris. 
E. divisa Wkr. (45 i). Both sexes purely white, antennal teeth and sometimes the collar hued reddish- 
yellow. Abdomen jet-black with an orange anal brush. Wings lustrous purely white. Expanse of wings: $ 
34 mm, $ 42 to 50 mm. India: Sikkim, Naga Hills, Nepal. West China. 
E. stirasta Sivinh. Certainly closely allied with E. decussata Moore (44 e). Both sexes ochreous-yellow. 
Forewing with a black discocellular spot, a brown, round spot at the posterior margin near the base and a 
brown discal transverse band from the middle of the posterior margin as far as towards the apex of 
the costal margin, where it is somewhat narrowed. Hindwing lighter yellow, and without markings, like 
the whole under surface. Expanse of wings: E 37, $ 41% mm. Shan States. 
E. abjecta Sivinh. resembles Porthesia scintillans (Vol. II, t. 21 li). Forewing light reddish brown, 
dusted black, with an antemedian and a postmedian, light, narrow transverse band bent convex towards the 
margin, but these bands are not always recognizable. Hindwing according to the figure apparently pale yellow 
with a brown marginal line. Vertex white, thorax somewhat like the forewing, abdomen brown with an ochreous 
anal brush. — Expanse of wings: E 12%, ? 29% to 34% mm. Lower Sind (India).
