and the upper ocellus as occurring between the upper median and lower radial; the 
upper radial veinlet being moreover here omitted altogether. These inaccuracies can 
be easily tested by comparison with the veins on the opposite or upperside side of the 
same figure (fig. 1) of the same plate, where they are correctly given. It has been 
necessary to point out these inaccuracies in Mr. de Niceville’s reproduction of Cramer’s 
figure, inasmuch as our own identification of the species (polydecta) mainly rests on 
the position and the number of the ocelli on the underside of the forewing, and, though 
the errors in the figure here noted are evidently those of the artist, they would, more¬ 
over, puzzle other less critical eyes more so than they have our own. 
Distribution. —Commencing Eastward. We have verified examples of the dry- 
season brood from Malda taken by Mr. Irvine, and from Barrackpore in the Calcutta 
district taken in November, both in the collection of Col. Swinhoe, as are also others 
from the Central Provinces, taken by Mr. Betham at Daolapur in November, and at 
Mahoda, also in November. From the Bombay district, examples from Wangni in 
the Thanna division, taken in November and December—the wet-season form having: 
been taken by Col. Swinhoe in Bombay in August, and the dry-season form in 
November and at Poona in October. Southward, Mr. Hampson obtained on the Nil- 
giris the wet-season form from August to October, and the dry-season form from 
November to January. Dr. J. Shortt has taken the wet-season form on the Sheva- 
roys. It also occurs at Kallaur in Travancore in April. In Ceylon Mr. E. E. 
Green obtained the wet and dry-season broods at Pundalova, in the West Central 
district. 
Of the illustrations on our Plate 61 of G. Polydecta, figs. 1, la, b, d, represent a 
male and female of the wet-season brood from Travancore: fm\ lc, that of a 
Ceylon male ; figs, le, f, a variety of the Ceylon male and female; figs, lg, h, also of 
a Ceylon male and female, the latter fairly agreeing with Cramer’s figure, and probably 
that of a specimen of an early emergence of the dry-season brood. On our Plate 62 
are illustrations of the dry-season brood—figs. 1, la, of a Bombay male; figs, lb 
c, Nilgiri males; figs. Id, e, Ceylon males; fig. If, a Nilgiri female; figs, lg, h, 
Bombay females, and fig. li, a large Ceylon female variety.
