LEPIDOPTERA INDIO A . 
forewing than in typical Zethera (Z. pimplea of Erich4pn, Nova Acta Acad. Nat. 
Cnr. 1838, tab. 50, fig. 5), the costa is more arched, the apex hardly rounded, the 
exterior margin less oblique and the posterior margin longer. The hindwing in 
Buploeamima is also longer, the exterior margin considerably more rounded and 
less scalloped. In the forewing the cell is longer, and broader; the discocellulars 
more outwardly oblique ; the cell in the hindwing also much longer, and the dis- 
cocellular much more oblique.

Imago. —Male and female. Bpperside dark purpurescent-brown. Forewing 
with a submarginal series of seven small bluish-white (sometimes olivescent-white) 
spots, which decrease in size towards the costa; a marginal row of much smaller 
spots disposed in pairs between the veins, and usually a trace of an inner marginal 
row of lunular spots; the submarginal spots are either all rounded in shape, or the 
lower are cordate and the upper are excavated on the outside, and the outer marginal 
row are also either oval or irregularly triangular in shape. Ilindiving with a sub¬ 
marginal series of six prominent, larger, oval, similar coloured spots, of which the 
second and third lower are the largest, and the upper the smallest; an inner and

outer marginal row of smaller prominent spots, disposed in pairs between the veins, 
of which the inner row are somewhat triangular in shape and laterally opposed to 
each other, the outer row being narrower and more linear in form. Underside 
exactly as above. Body dark brown; sides of head and of the palpi white. Abdomen 
beneath pale ochreous-brown. 
Expanse, 3 to 3^ inches. 
Habitat. —Upper Tenasserim. 
Distribution. —The type specimens were taken by Mr. Otto Limborg, during 
the expedition of 1876-7 to Upper Tenasserim, at Taoo, 3000 to 5000 feet elevation, 
and at Moolai 3000 to 6000 feet. Capt. C. T. Bingham also took it in March, April, 
and May, and again in the autumn, in the upper and lower Thoungyeen forests in 
Upper Tenasserim. 
Allied Indo-Malayan Species.— The Rev. W. F. Holland has described and 
figured (Trans. Amer. Bnt. Soc. 1887, 113, pi. 1, fig. 1) an allied species from the 
Island of Hainan under the name of Eupl . Henrici, which he says differs from 
E. diademoides in that the submarginal band of the forewing has seven spots instead 
of six, and that there is another band of four white spots crossing the apex of the 
forewing, transversely between the submarginal band and the cell.
