Show 461 ME. E. Y. WATSON ON THE HESPERIIDiE. [Jan. 17, wing. Hind wing rather elongate, outer margin slightly crenulate discocellulars and vein 5 barely traceable ; vein 3 immediately before the end of cell; vein 2 hardly nearer to the end of cell than to the base of wing. Hind tibise with two pairs of spurs. There is no costal fold in the male of aristoteles, and a hardly perceptible one in the male of calendris. * aristoteles, Westw 1 • * calendris, H e w 2. Confined to tropical South America. 4. Genus SATARUPA. Satarupa, Moore, P. Z. S. 1865, p. 780. Type, gopala, Moore. Antennse: club slender, bent into a hook, terminal portion long. Palpi porrect ; third joint short, bluntly conical. Fore wing: outer margin strongly oblique, inner and outer margins subequal ; cell less than two-thirds the length of costa ; discocellulars inwardly oblique ; vein 12 reaching costa before the end of cell; vein 3 shortly before end of cell, twice as far from 2 as from 4 ; vein 2 twice as far from end of cell as from base of wing. Hind wing much elongated, outer margin sinuate ; vein 7 well before end of cell, twice as far from 8 as from 6 ; vein 3 immediately before end of cell ; vein 2 twice as far from base of wing as from end of cell. In the type species vein 5 of the hind wing is well developed, but it is barely traceable in the other species of the genus. Hind tibise with two pairs of spurs. In the male the hind tibiae are fringed along their upper edge, and the inner side of the tibise is clothed with long coarse recumbent hairs. Closely allied to Daimio, from which it may be separated by the shape of the wings, especially of the hind wing, by the much greater length and more decided hook in the terminal portion of the antennal club, and by the scaling of the hind tibise of the male. A synopsis of species is appended. A large transparent spot in cell of fore wing gopala, Moore. 1. No transparent spot in cell of fore wing. Underside: base of hind wing brown; abdomen banded with white, extremity brown sambara Moore. 2. Underside: base of hind wing white; abdomen entirely white *dohcrtyi, sp. n. 3. Underside: base of hind wing white; abdomen entirely black a^ms, Druce. 4. Entirely confined to Asia. SATARUPA DOHERTYI, sp. nov. Upperside dark brown. Fore wing with a series of seven transparent spots, three subapical and minute, the remainder in pairs in echelon to the submedian, there followed by an opaque white streak on inner margin. Hind wing with a broad white central band outwardly bordered by a series of black spots ; cilia chequered' Underside as above, but paler; the white band on hind wing of much greater extent, occupying the whole of the wing, with the |
