A few' of our examples show a tendency towards prosope^ but the greater number appear to be 
identical ■with Utrneri, described by Butler from Port Moresby, New Guinea.

Genus ATELLA Doubleday. 
Genera Diurnal Lepidoptera, p. 165, 1848. 
Antennae slightly' more than half the length of costa. Avith cluhs long and gradual. Eves smooth. 
Forewing Avith A'ein 11 from subcostal just before end of cell: vein 10 from vein 7 Avell beyond end of 
cell: cell much less than half the length of Aving and closed, AA'itli loAA'er and upper edges of about equal 
length. HindAving Avith cell less than half the length of Aving and closed: vein 3 and vein 4 from 
almost the same point: termen rounded. 
Type. Atella plialanta Drury, from India. 
This genus is closely' allied to Issoyici but the liindAA'ing is of an altogether different shape.
