from close to apex to centre of inner margin. Submarginal line delicately green, excurved below vein 7 and 
in centre. Fringes red. Hindwings greenish white. $ 32 mm. New Guinea. 
15. Genus: Chloriola limps. 
Palpi relatively short and stout, somewhat longer in §. Forewings with acutely pointed apex and 
normal accessory cell. On hindwing vein 5 arises somewhat above lower angle of cell. The Genus embraces 
only one species. 
Ch. gratissima Wkr. Forewings blue-green with white sheen, costa yellow-red, The inner line delic- gratisshna. 
ately white with yellow-red outer edge, straight, oblique, only slightly incurved in cell. Outer line with yellow- 
red inner edge, oblique, faintly impressed at vein 2, acutely angulated inwards behind cell. A round yellow- 
red spot with white edge at apex. Hindwings luscious green, apex and fringes yellow-red. 24—26 mm. Mal¬ 
acca, Borneo. 
16. Genus: Clytophylla Trnr. 
Palpi of cJ short and slender, still shorter in + On forewings only vein 7+8 stalked; 9, 10 and 11 
free, no accessory cell. On hindwings disco-cellular nervure is absent, vein 8 anastomoses widely with 7. 
C. artia Trnr. Forewings with boldly curved costa, apex pointed, outer margin dentate, somewhat artia. 
oblique. Brilliant green, fine pale longitudinal striations above inner margin. In centre of cell a white spot 
with black-brown and orange-brown edge. Anteriorly in cell, a black spot with orange-brown edge. Costa 
delicately white. Hindwings and fringes white, green at costa. 42—45 mm. Queensland. 
17. Genus: Ariola Wkr. 
Palpi extremely porrect, the third segment short, densely hairy. Forewings curved outwards at base 
of costa, elongate. Neuration normal. On hindwings vein 3 + 4 stalked, 5 arises from lower angle of cell. The 
Genus covers only 3 species that are very strikingly marked. Type: coelisigna Wkr. 
A. coelisigna Wkr. (= ransonneti Fldr.) (40 g). Forewings blackish green at costa and in cell and obli- coelisigna. 
quely to apex. The remainder on inner margin, paler green. Both areas divided by a diffuse white streak. 
Hindwings dark reel-brown. 18—24 mm. India, Ceylon, Burma, Tonkin, Sunda Is., Philippines, New Guinea. 
A. triangulifera Warr. Wings shorter and wider than in coelisigna (40 g). The dark green stripe on costa trianguli- 
is not so flatly curved but triangular, extending to submedian fold, the commencement at costa is slightly 
further from base. Solomon Is., New Guinea. 
A. pallidithorax Warr. Smaller than coelisigna (40 g). Thorax white, not greenish. The white spot at palliditho- 
base of inner margin is wider, also the small enclosed violet spot. On hindwings vein 3+4 has a longer 
stalk and is also stalked with vein 5. 3 from Sumbawa. 
18. Genus: Paraerama Hr. 
Quite similar to Chloriola but the palpi are attenuate. Type: dulcissima Wkr. 
P. dulcissima Wkr. A very variable species. Forewings pale green, delicately red-brown at costa. Trans- dulcissima. 
verse lines white, the inner line incurved to costa, then straight, obliquely outwards; outer line outwards to 
vein 7, then vertically. Marginal band lilac reddish brown, narrow, expanding only below apex and below vein 3. 
Hindwings yellowish white, rose at margin. rectomarginata Hmps. Marginal band is generally narrow but redomargi 
expands forming a small quadrate spot at apex. - aurea Strd. Forewings golden yellow, transverse lines yellow, 
marginal band wider. Known to occur in Queensland. — flammans Strd. Hindwings fire red on upper and -fiammans. 
under sides. New Guinea. — latimargo Warr. (40 g). Outer margin wide as in aurea , ground colour green, latimargo. 
lines yellow, in dulcissima Warren describes them as being pale green. Hindwing is two-thirds white, then 
rose, diffuse inwardly. New Guinea. - angustimargo Warr. Forewings with such a narrow marginal band, angusti- 
that the excurvations touch the margin; hindwings less rose. South India, Ceylon. — We are illustrating a 
specimen from Queensland, that is not aurea , but which corresponds to latimargo. All forms occur probably 
everywhere together. 22—26 mm. India, Ceylon to Australia.

19. Genus: Psemlelydiia Hmps. 
Palpi slender, the 3rd segment short. Neuration normal. Hindlegs abnormal, differing in both species 
enumerated here. Type: rufoflava Wkr.
