Malaya, Johore, bred January from larvae boring stem of Uncaria 
gambler ( Uubiacece ) (Cr. H . Corbett ); 2 ex. (Brit. Mus.). The sexes, 
though very dissimilar, are undoubtedly correctly associated. 
Aschistophleps lampropoda Hamps. 
A c? from Siam ( T . D.A. CocJcerell), pinned presumably in actual 
position of repose, has the highly coloured and tufted posterior legs 
erected over the back and diverging laterally; in this attitude they 
strongly suggest the antennae of a small Longicorn beetle, with 
which the other features of the insect would be reasonably con¬ 
sistent. The abdomen of this specimen is largely suffused with 
red scales, not mentioned in the original description, but they may 
have been denuded in the type. 
HELIODINIDiE. 
Stathmopoda pyrrhogramma, n. sp.

edged red-brown resting on costa near base, another similarly 
placed at and an oval spot in disc before •§•; a red-brown streak 
from second spot beneath costa and resting on third to apex, and 
another rising from dorsum at | and running along fold to its

Lamproteucha cassiteris Heyr. 
Mr. T. B. Fletcher, sending examples from Kodaikanal (7000 
feet) in the Palnis, notes that in repose the hindlegs are stuck out 
as in Stathmopoda.
