is discernible. Hindwings dark lilac brown, transparent at base. In $ the outer area of forewings is a rusty red 
the submarginal line is more distinct. 22 mm. Borneo. 
S. cymographa Hmps. (39 k). Very similar to a small sanguinolenta , but the basal and marginal areas rymoyrapha. 
are not so dark. Hindwings do not vary. 20 mm. One $ from Borneo. 
2. There is no ridge of metallic scales between the antennae, except in haernoxantha. 
S. sanguinolenta Mr. (39 k and Vol. 3, pi. 53 g). In China this species extends into palaearctic territory sanyuino- 
and was therefore already dealt with in Vol. Ill, p. 295. In forewings the brown marginal area is outlined in a 
simular way to India, but also the base is dark with short bright red striations. 18 22 mm. Sikkim, Assam, 
Borneo, Sumatra. 
S. haernoxantha Zerny. Resembles sanguinolenta (39 k) by the presence of the hyaline groove at base haemoxan- 
of forewings, but differs by the metallic ridge between the feelers. The pale yellow central band of forewings 
is narrower, from inner margin to submedian fold it is interfilled with blackish and carmine red. The red inner 
outline of the dark outer area is more delicate and anteriorly is entirely absent. The pale submarginal line proceeds 
in its lower part close to the margin and terminates at anal angle. In sanguinolenta it is indistinct there. ^17 mm. 
Malacca. Perhaps it is identical with the above mentioned specimens from Borneo and Sumatra. 
S. haematica Hmps. This has no scent scales or other features. The second segment of palpi is hairy haenafica. 
posteriorly, the third is short. Forewings yellowish red. Yellow specks at base and also a few on costa, in central 
area and at apex. Inner, central and outer lines are indicated. There is a brown spot at disco-cellular. Hind¬ 
wings red, yellow at base. 22 mm. Borneo, Tonkin. 
6. Genus: Topsulesa Mr. 
Proboscis small. Palpi beak-like and very long. Antennae of $ ciliate. Forewings with pointed apex, 
centre of outer margin angulated, with small appendicular cell. Hindwings as in Gabala. Type: sanguinea Mr. 
Besides this, one other very similar species. 
T. flammans Hmps. (= sanguinea $ Swh.) (40 a). Forewings bright red, suffused with lilac on costa, at flammans. 
close of cell and before outer margin. A yellow spot at base and widely yellow at outer margin, constricted in 
centre. The inner and outer lines are dark but indistinct inwardly. A white dot at disco-cellular. Hindwings 
yellow, rose at apex. In $ the forewing is suffused with lilac-grey, only the margins are red and yellow. The 
central spot is small and red. - khasica Strd. has inner margin of forewings black. Also costa, central area and Jchasica. 
the space before the yellow margin are dusted with black. 24 mm. Assam. Probably only a form of the follow¬ 
ing species. 
T. sanguinea Mr. (40 a). Forewings red. At costa the apical area and a narrow stripe in central area sanguinea. 
are dark lilac. The inner and outer lines are dark and parallel. Also the spot on the disco-cellular is of the same 
shade and as in flammans. The outer margin is only very narrowly yellow. Hindwings yellowish white. In some 
forms the entire forewing is lilac-brown except for the yellow areas; then hindwings are also somewhat darker. 
22 to 26 mm. Darjeeling. 
7. Genus: Cliaiiclica Mr. 
Stunted proboscis. Palpi thin, upturned, the third segment short. Antennae of $ simple. A small 
appendicular cell on forewings. Margin of hindwings incurved under nervure 6, excurved at nervure 3. more 
extensively so in Y- Veins 2, 3 4 and 5 almost arising from a point. Type: quadripennis Mr. ; 3 further forms 
have been described much later. 
Ch. quadripennis Mr. Forewings dark brown, irregularly spotted with yellow on costa, also narrowly quadripen- 
yellow at outer margin. Inner line pale reddish extending from the point of the first yellow triangle on costa 
somewhat outwards and slightly curved. Outer line only discernible over the inner margin. Hindwings whitish, 
slightly tinted brownish at margin, more extensively so in narrowly yellow in centre of outer margin. 25 mm. 
Sikkim, Borneo, Sumatra. — meeki Warr. (39 i) differs by bolder yellow' colouration of forewings, the width of meeld. 
the yellow margin appears to be wider at nervure 5, the transverse lines are said to be redder, not whitish; apex 
of hindwings is more rounded and not angular. This form is described from New Guinea. - lobophorina E. Prout. lobophorina. 
In this form the costal spot, from which the inner line proceeds, is closer to the centre and besides it is more 
triangular; also the outer line commences nearer the apex. The inner line is more vertical, the outer one is 
more boldly indented on submedian fold and angulated outwards on nervure 2. Hindwings somewhat stunted 
in the one specimen, they are brilliant red with long hairs, slightly paler than the forewings. Ceram. — schisti- schistipen- 
pennis Warr. has brick-red forewings, darker below the yellow costa, brown at the outer margin. Lines yellow. 
Hindwings boldly indented at margin, yellowish, the few red hairs being limited to the cell and submedian fold. 
Celebes and Nias.
