Comes near tyj)ical macareus, but can easily he distinguished by the characters 

 mentioned under (a). 



The female, which is very rare and lias not yet been described, differs from that 

 of macareus in the forewings being devoid of all markings except the submarginal 

 ones, and in the hindwings being provided with all the markings of the male, though 

 these markings are shorter and less well defined than in that sex. 



Hab. North India : Sikkim (lie?); Khasia Hills (8 c?, 1 ? ) ; Shan States (2 c?); 

 Tenasserim ; (?) Malacca. 



My two specimens from the Siamese Shan States resemble in pattern the 

 Bornean subspecies, all the streaks being narrower than in the North Indian race ; 

 most probably in the mountainous regions of tlie IMalay Peninsula macareus is still 

 more different, and will require a subspecific name of its own.

Differs from F. maca.reus Godart chiefly in the brown or yellowish brown colour 

 of the upper.side of the abdomen, and in the narrower white streaks on the wings.
