P. analis Gn. This is stated to occur in Hongkong and was therefore dealt with in Vol. Ill, p. 329 and analis. 
pi. 61 b. The species is easily recognisable by the black spot on hindwings near the anal angle, it has a distinct 
white patch on its proximal side. In India. Tonkin, the Sunda Islands and Formosa. 
P. conficiens Wkr. (54 b). Differs entirely by the submarginal position of the postmedian line. Fore- confidens. 
wings black-brown with fairly wide white oblique median band. Postmedian line obliquely to vein 6 almost 
to margin, from vein 5—2 close to margin, somewhat, incurved above and below this expanse. Hindwings rather 
less dark, with wide white median band to anal angle. 45 mm. India. 
P. senex Wkr. (= acutissima B.-Bak.) (54 b). This species is striking by the 3 projections of the post- senex. 
median line. Forewings olive-brown at base and before postmedian line. Antemedian line black, oblique, 
curved forwards between cell and vein 1. Median band wide, white, dusted with rose-brown. Postmedian line 
with white outer edge, projecting shortly but acutely at vein 6, then excurved under vein 4 and at vein 1, con¬ 
joining at inner margin with the frequently diffuse straight or undulate median line. At apex the upper of the 
2 usual black spots is large. A dentate white submarginal line varying in distinctness. Hindwings with white 
median band. 40 mm. New Guinea, Australia. 
P. stuposa F. (= achatina Cr., festinata Wkr.) was fully dealt with in Vol. III. p. 329 and illustrated stuposa. 
on pi. 61 c. It also occurs in India, Ceylon, Tonkin, Formosa, Java. 
P. fruhstorferi Swh. Somewhat similar to stuposa. Forewings grey-brown at base. The wide white fruhstorferi. 
median band fairly densely dusted with grey, antemedian and median lines both parallel and incurved in centre, 
differing therein from stuposa. Distally triangularly black. Postmedian line on costa near median line, an- 
gulated outwards at vein 6, then slightly incurved, conjoining with median line on inner margin, widely edged 
with white to vein 6. Hindwings grey-brown with indications of a pale median band. $ 52 mm. Ferguson 
Islands. 
P. constricta Btlr. ( = divaricata Luc.) (54b). Also very similar to stuposa. Inner edge of the pale median constricta. 
area is straighter and more vertical, the outer outline is sharp, more excurved below cell, postmedian line simil¬ 
arly, so that the dark band remains unchanged in its narowness at the lower extremity. On costa the post- 
median line extends more steeply vertically to vein 6. The white submarginal line as in stuposa. Hindwings 
do not vary. 45 mm. One specimen of the $ each from New Guinea and Queensland. 
P. dicoela Trnr. (54 b). Recognisable by the blue band on hindwings. Forewings dark fuscous. Ante- dicoela. 
median line oblique, uniformly curved. The white cliscal area dusted with rose. Median line uniformly in¬ 
curved. Postmedian line boldly pressed downwards between costa and vein 6, touching the median line at 
inner margin, faintly curved in between in the shape of an “S '. The white submarginal line is normal. Hind¬ 
wings somewhat blue-grey also at outer margin. 40 mm. Queensland. The type is in Australia, the specimen 
illustrated is from the Staudinger collection. 
P. crameri Mr. This large species that resembles a white fulvotaenia is also found in Afghanistan and crameri. 
China and has already been dealt with in Vol. Ill, p. 330 and pi. 63 a. It occurs in India, Ceylon, Tonkin, 
Siam, Sumatra, Sumbawa. — The larva is ochreous brown, densely covered with small pale and dark brown 
spots. Dorsallv and laterally with reddish yellow stripes, with intermediate yellow stripe. In the dorsal stripe 
there are fuscous spots. On 4th and 5th segments a black-brown transverse stripe and 3 small yellow dots 
posteriorly. On 10th segment a red double hump with a black spot anteriorly. 
P. fallax Hulst. This is very close to dicoela. Median‘band of forewings lilac whitish grey, darker fallcix. 
grey at costa and dark red-brown before and behind the band. Outer margin lilac-grey. Antemedian line prob¬ 
ably somewhat similar to arcuata , excurved in cell, outwards at vein 2, vertically to inner margin. Median 
line vertical to vein 2, then somewhat incurved and obliquely outwards. Postmedian line corresponds to that 
of dicoela. Grev-brown proximally of the pale dentate submarginal line. Hindwings with similar blue-white 
median band. 42 mm. One $ from Tenimber. - septentrionis Hulst. Antemedian line is more oblique in its septentrionis 
lower half, so that it appears to be less excurved below the cell. Median line excurved inwardly at vein 2, so 
that the band becomes narrower at this spot. Postmedian line is still less incurved at vein 2, than in fallax. 
45 mm. One $ from Lesser Key Island. 
P. euryleuca E. Prout is larger and paler than crameri . Forewings pale brown, somewhat olive-brown, euryleuca. 
lilac-grey at base and at margin. Antemedian line straight and more vertical than in crameri. The wide white 
median band is somewhat brownish towards the base. Median line somewhat less curved, however the central 
band is wider in the middle in consequence of the lesser degree of this curve. Postmedian line scarcely incurved 
below vein 6 to inner margin, a pale line extends from the angle at vein 6 to the apex. A white median band 
on hindwings is still more diffusely edged than in crameri. 65 mm. One $ from Borneo. 
P. postica Wilem. (54 c). Resembles crameri , hindwings of $ projecting in centre of outer margin, postica. 
Forewings dark olive-brown to the postmedian line. Median band wide, white, dusted with brownish, its inner 
edge straight, the outer incurved, a black spot between vein 5 and 6. Postmeclian line angulated outwards at 
vein 6, terminating near the median line at inner margin. Submarginal line dark and undulate. Hindwings
