with fine blackish-brown marks; $ hindwing almost still darker ochreous than forewing with or without dark 
dotting. Judging from the figure, the apex of the forewing in mulleri would be obtuser than that in catala. Larva 
small, short-haired, with yellow dorsal longitudinal stripes. Pupal web dense, white, long-stretched. Pupal 
stage 10 days. -—- [Our figure (43 f) is too light, particularly the hindwings.] 
E. calva Sivh. (44 g). $ and $ antennae, palpi, head, body, and forewings deep orange-ochreous calva. 
without markings; hindwings pale whitish-ochreous. Expanse of wings: 34, $ 41% mm. Allied with E. 
holoxutha Turn. Sambawa, Bali, Lombok. 
E. xanthura Swh. resembles Porthesia scintillans (Vol. II, t. 21 h). — Antennae and frons ochreous; xantlmra. 
palpi above brown, beloiv and at the tips white; body and wings blackish-brown. Thorax in front ochreous. 
In the forewing the costal line and an apical spot are ochreous-whitish, at the apex a black spot, at the margin 
an ochreous-whitish spot, of which colour are also the fringes. Hindwing nni-coloured, with purely white fringes. 
Forewing beneath a little lighter, at the margins even whitish, hindwing whitish, only in the dorsal third lined 
blackish. Expanse of wings: 27 mm. Sumatra. 
E. servilis Wkr. (= prima Wkr., incomta Sn., incompta Swh.). $ body and forewings brownish- servilis. 
grey or light greyish-ochreous, forewing with greyish-brown scaling which is more or less irregular and blurred, 
recognizable as transverse bands and spots. A greyish-brown discocellular spot is always present. Hindwing 
uni-coloured dirty whitish. All the fringes like their wings. The whole under surface uni-coloured, forewings 
brownish-grey, hindwings rather lighter than above. 29 to 32 mm. — Java, Celebes, Sambawa. •— cinerea cinerea. 
Heyl. <$ from Sindaglaja (Java), deviates from servilis by its ash-grey colouring, the forewing showing a large, 
black discocellular spot and a brown transverse line parallel to the margin, whereby the darker marginal area 
is separated from the discal area. Hindwing with fringes whitish-grey. 23 mm. 
E. calvella sp. nov. (45 i). $ closely allied with E. calva Swh. (44 g) and clersa Mr. (44 d), but different calvella. 
from both by the presence of a rather very indistinct oblique band on the forewing. This band extends about 
between the veins 2 and 6 straight and parallel to the margin at a distance of 4 to 5 mm, but at its posterior 
end it is slightly bent towards the margin or almost broken, so that the end is almost vertically turned 
towards the proximal margin, whereas at vein 6 it is reversely bent, so that the convexity is here turned towards 
the margin, the anterior end, however, not being quite recognizable as far as the costal margin. The band is 
in fact double, proximally lighter, clistally darker than the ochreous ground-colour of the wings. The latter 
are reddish-ochreous at the base and on the discocellular punctiform spot, but slightly contrasting with the 
ground-colour. The fringes like the latter, at the posterior margin, however, more reddish hairing. Hindwing 
with fringes uni-coloured pale ochreous, thus lighter than forewing. Body, particularly head and thorax, reddish- 
ochreous, abdomen apparently more of the ochreous colouring of the forewing. Under surface of both wings 
pale ochreous, like hindwings above, but the costal margin of both wings and the fringes of the forewing are 
somewhat darker ochreous. Head and thorax long-haired. Expanse of wings: 45, length of wings: 22 mm. 
Java (Coll. Seitz). — It also occurs smaller: 37 resp. 19 mm. 
E. alba Swh. In both sexes palpi grey, below white. Antennae grey. Head, thorax, and wings white, alba. 
Forewing with some indistinct red scales at the cell-end and at the base, dorsally speckled somewhat blackish. 
Hindwing in the dorsal area only of the $ hued brownish. Abdomen above blackish except at the base and 
anal brush which are ochreous. Under surface uni-coloured white. Expanse of wings: 39 mm. Sambawa. 
E. neola Swh. reminds us of E. alomaria (45 k). £ blackish-brown. Antennae, palpi, thorax below, neola. 
legs and anal brush ochreous-whitish, thorax in front orange. Forewing with a large, yellow apical spot enclosing 
two jet-black spots, another, smaller yellow spot behind the middle of the margin. Fringes coloured as the 
corresponding parts of the wing. Hindwing uni-coloured, fringes bright yellow which colour partly passes 
over to the margin. Forewing beneath as above, but the apical spots are absent and the costal line is yellow. 
Expanse of wings: 37 mm. Padang, Sumatra. -—- From the Kina Balu there is in Coll. Seitz a $ with an 
expanse of 29 mm, which presumably belongs to a form closely allied with E. neola. The larger half of the 
forewing is ochreous-orange, the border of the dark basal part extending from behind shortly within the anal 
angle almost rectilinearly to y 3 of the costal margin. In this yelloiv area there are 3 black spots (see fig. 43 g). 
The yellow marginal band of the hindwing is above 4 mm broad, beneath 5 mm. Forewing beneath as above, 
but the border between the black and yelloiv colour is less distinct, and of the black spots only that at 
the cell-end appears. AVe call this form neolella form. ?iov. (43 g as neobella). It certainly also approximates neolella. 
E. sexmacula Swh. 
E. flavolimbatulana sp. nov. (44 e) $: resembles E. bipunctapex Hmps. (Vol. II, t. 21 h), but the flavolimba- 
yellow marginal band of the forewing is not interrupted, and besides jlavolimbata Aur., but it has two black sub-
