Show 1886.] LEPIDOPTERA OF M H O W . 431 on the secondaries below, and many of both sexes vary much in depth of the markings above, they also vary much in size. I have a female from Neemuch with the apical portion entirely black, and both males and females identical with and not separable from a pair in my collection taken by Major Yerbury in copuld at Haithalkim in Arabia, and identical with Walker's type in the British Museum of B. lordaca from Damascus. Mr. Butler (P. Z. S. 1884, p. 492) says the males sent him by Major Yerbury from Huswah and Haithalkim are smaller than the Damascus type; but I have males both large and small from these localities, and a pair from the Punjaub quite as large as the Damascus insect, the male being a typical B. lordaca and the female only slightly paler in its marginal black borders. 78.
