208 LEPIDOPTERA INDICA. 
Hasirat.—Sikkim ?; Khasia and Naga Hills; Silhet; Looshai Hills; Burma; 
Tenasserim; Siam; Malay Peninsula. 
Distrisution.—Within our area Messrs. Marshall and de Nicéville (Butt. Ind. 
314) record “ specimens from Sikkim, from the collection of the late Mr. Mandelli.”’ 
According to Mr. Elwes (Tr. Ent. Soc. 1888, 334) ‘it has never been seen recently 
by Mr. Moller or myself from Sikkim.” Colonel C. Swinhoe has received numerous 
specimens taken in the Khasia Hills by the Rev. W. Hamilton’s native collectors. 
The late W. 8. Atkinson obtained it at Cherra Punji. It is also recorded from Silhet. 
Specimens are in Mr. P. Crowley’s collection from the Lushai and Naga Hills. 
Major C, H. HE. Adamson (hist, p. 10) obtained it at ‘‘ Bhamo, Burma, and in Upper 
‘Tenasserim, in woody places, during the cold weather.” Capt. C. Bingham obtained 
in the Donat Range i Upper Tenasserim in January, and others in the Thoung- 
yeen forests in March and December” (Butt. Ind. 314). Mr. Ossian Limborg 
(P. Z. 8. 1878, p. 827) met with it above Ahsown in Upper Tenasserim in the cold 
weather.” Mr. Elwes (J. A. 8. Beng. 1887, 419) records it from “Tavoy and 
Ponsekai.” The type specimen described by Fabricius is recorded from Siam, 
now in the Bankhan Cabinet at the British Museum, which we have examined, 
and is identical with our Indian examples. 
DIstTRIBUTION OUTSIDE OUR AREA.—Mr. Distant (Rhop. Malay. 429) records it 
from the Malay Peninsula, where Capt. Godfery “‘ took it in a shady nook near a 
well. Its flight was very low; issuing from the surrounding jungle it would flit 
along the path, or rest upon it for a while, and then return to the thickest shades.” 
Mr. W. Doherty obtained it at Perak (P. Z.S. 1891, 273). It also occurs at Penang 
and Singapore; Nias (Kheil); Sumatra (Snellen); and Java (Horsfield). The 
Java specimens (of which many were obtained by the late Dr. Horsfield) differ on 
the underside in having both the dark transverse subbasal and medial fascia con- 
spicuously broader, the latter fascia being also less sinuous on its outer edge; the 
submarginal line is also comparatively broader. If this Java form proves distinct, 
it will take Hiibner’s name of Caneus. It is also recorded from Borneo. 
CLEROME ASSAMA (Plate 163, figs. 1, la, b, c,d ?). 
Clerome Assama, Westwood, Trans. Ent. Soc. 1856, p. 184. Marshall and de Nieéville, Butt. India, 
etc. i. p. 314, fig. 9 (1883). 
Imaco.—Male. Upperside deep brownish-ochreous or fulvous, uniformly tinted 
throughout both wings. Sometimes the median pale spots of the underside are 
slightly apparent. Underside much darker, and more or less ochreous-brown in tint. 
Both wings crossed by a prominent black slightly-wavy subbasal and a medial discal 
line; an outer discal series of small pale yellow rounded spots, the penultimate lower
