white. Body ochreous, antennae white with grey pinnae. — Expanse of wings: 26 mm. Murree in Western 
India. Andamans. 
E. unimacula Moore is closely allied with E. digramma Bsd. (Vol. II, t. 21 h), but in the forewing unimacula. 
it has but one black apical spot, and the abdomen is brownish with an ochreous anal brush. Expanse of wings:

E. guttata Wile. (43 g) is closely allied with E. digramma , but the abdomen is not dark, forewing with guilaia. 
an orange spot at the cell-end and another, black spot at the proximal angle (whether invariably so?). The 
light lines of the fore wings are partly distally hued dark and the space between them filled up with brown. 
30, $ 40 mm. — Larva black with a chestnut head, long anterior and short lateral grey hair-tufts, the thoracal 
segments with grey dorsal brushes, the others with short brown brushes. India, also in the north. 
E. singapura Sivinh. antennae, body and forewing ochreous; fore wing with two narrow, whitish, singapura. 
almost straight transverse bands enclosing a narrow median area extending almost parallel to the margin and 
not or not quite reaching the costal margin. Hindwing yellowish-white like the whole uni-coloured under surface. 
Expanse of wings: 27 mm. Singapore. 
E. basalis Moore (47 e). head, thorax and palpi yellow. Abdomen and legs whitish. Forewing basalis. 
in the basal two thirds red-brown, the distal border of this area oblicpie and in the middle distally angled ; between 
this angle and the margin a red-brown spot; marginal area yellow. Hindwing and under surface whitish. Expanse 
of wings: 32 mm. Sikkim; Khasia Hills. 
E. immaculata Btlr. deviates from E. plana Wlcr. (43 f) by the white hindwings and the absence of immaculata.

E. dana Swinh. (44 d). <$: brownish ochreous, beneath lighter and brighter than above. Forewing dan a. 
proximally suffused with brown with two, rather closely juxtaposited, indistinct, light transverse lines beyond 
the middle, bordering on a band which in some specimens is darker than the rest of the wing. Hindwing blackish- 
brown. Fringes of both wings long and bright ochreous. Expanse of wings: 22 mm. Sometimes the forewing 
is almost not at all suffused with brown and the light transverse lines are hardly recognizable: f. danaica form, danaica. 
nov. Described from Cashmir, thus belonging indeed to the palearctic region, but as it could not be dealt with 
in the palearctic part of this work, it may be inserted here. 
E. madana Moore (43 f). $: body yellow. Forewing yellow, in the basal area brown; this brown madana. 
is extended pointedly like a tooth along the median vein. Discocellular spot black. A postmedian band which 
is bent out beyond the cell and broadest on the costal margin, sends a tooth to the margin between the veins 
5 and 6. Hindwing light. Expanse of wings: 64 mm. Sikkim. 
E. varia Wlcr. deviates from E. plana (43 f) by the abdomen above being black and the anal tuft varia.

median, red-brown band strewn with darker scales and increasing very much in width from the posterior angle 
of the cell to the posterior margin. 46, $ 58 mm, Widely distributed in India. — In Sikkim there occurs 
a form in which the forewing has a red-brown marginal area, the hindwing being hued reddish (f. siccimana siedmana. 
f. nov.). — javana Auriv. deviates from the type by the basal quarter of the forewing being dark femiginous javana. 
and connected with the transverse band. The posterior half of the thorax, and the abdomen blackish-brown. 
Hindwing of the $ blackish only at the proximal margin, that of the $ with a broad black transverse band 
covering the whole proximal margin, but gradually growing narrower towards the apex of the wing. Java.
