weakly in their dense shade, settlinc; on their stems or leaves. All my 

 specimens seems to be votundata and not annularis ; they are all d. s. f. 

 The insect appears in February. 



17. Lethe europa, Fabr. This is common in the forest and usually sits 

 on the banks of dry streams, a habit all Lethes seem to have. 



18. L. confui^a, Aurivill. Also common. 



19. L. minerva, Fabr. One male and two females from the Taungnyo 

 Reserve. Rare specimens taken on 18th February 1911 and 18th April 

 1911. 



I also have this from the North Shan States and from Toungoo. 



20. L. mekarOf'M. Tia,th.er coramouev than cJitnidica ovvi7id/ii/a. Emerges 

 in February also. I have record of seven Tharrawaddy specimens, ranging 

 from 3lst January 1911 to 3rd May 1912 and one on 14th November 1911. 

 They come from the Taungnyo, Bawbin and Bilin Reserves, and one from 

 the Taungnyomyo. 



21 . L. chandica, M. Not common. Emerges in March. Bawbin 

 Reserve 14th November 1911, also Konbilin Reserve. 



22. L. vindhija, Felder. Not common. Appears in February. Konbilin 

 and Yetho streams on 16th February 1911 and 12th February 1912. 



23. L. muirheadi bliima. Mar. Rare. I caught one (3rd May 1911) and 

 saw two others in the Taungnyo Reserve — Pannyogale stream. 



Very common in the North Shan States in April and May. 



24. Mycalesix anaxioides, Mar. One from the source of the Mokka 

 stream, where there is perennial water and evergreen forest, on 20th Janu- 

 ary 1912. 



25. M. perseus, Fabr. Occurs all the year round, fairly plentifully. 



26. M. mineuA, L. This also occurs, but rather sparingly and I have 

 only taken a few. 



27. M. perseoides, M.. This is the common Mycalesis of Lower Burma 

 and is to be met with everywhere and at all seasons. 



28. M. intermedia, M. This doubtless occurs, as I have it from Rangoon 

 in November, but at present I have not been able to distinguish it from the 

 preceding species. 



29. M. malsara, M. This occurs fairly commonly in the forest. It 

 appears towards the end of February. 



30. M. mnasicles jJerna, Fruh. This appears in March and is only found 

 in heavy bamboo jungle. The banks of dry water courses, especiallj"- quite 

 small ones, are the usual places to find it. It seems local, but is not 

 uncommon when the right locality is foimd. Konbilin in March. 



31. M. myites, de Nic. Another species that does not fly in the cold 

 weather but only appears towards the end of February. Then it is not 

 uncommon and several may be got in any day's collecting if attention is 

 given to mycalesis. They are found in bamboo jungle, and settle on the 

 ground on the dead bamboo leaves, where the yellow of their undersides is 

 not conspicuous. 



32. M. meda, Fabr. This is very common : forms with the white stripe 

 obsolescent are found not infrequently, flying with striped specimens so 

 that this variation does not seem to be seasonal. M. visala, M.. does not 

 seem to occur, and I have not differentiated M. subdita. 



33. Melanitis Ma ismene. Cr. Very common.
