Distrisution.—‘* Not uncommon on the Western Slopes of the Nilgiris, at from 
2000 to 8000 feet. A brood emerges at the end of September ” (Hampson, J. A. S. 
Beng. 1888, 350). “*Mr. Harold Fergusson took it m May and June, at Mynall 
in the Ashamboo Hills in Travancore, at an altitude of 2600 feet. It is also found 
in the Wynaad” (Butt. Ind. 249). We possess specimens taken by Mr. Bour- 
dillon in Travancore, at 2200 feet elevation in April, and at Mynall at 1800 feet, in 
August.

Distrisution.—“ Rather a rare insect. Mr. Otto Méller has taken it at 
moderate elevations in Sikkim, and Mr. L. de Nicéville met with it in the Great 
Runjit Valley in October. It probably will be found to occur here and there in the 
lower ranges on the north-eastern frontier of Bengal and Assam” (Butt. Ind. 
249). It is also recorded from the Naga Hills, and we possess specimens from the 
Khasia Hills. Mr. W. H. Irvine obtained it in Sikkim in April. Mr. H. J. Elwes 
(Trans. Ent. Soc. 1888, 328) records it as “‘ not a common species in Sikkim, and
