W. J. In the southern part of the prov. Prayangan, in the division of 

 Soukapoura and in the neighbourhood of the Tjiletou or Sand Bay on the 

 south coast (+ 1 50).

As I have never found this butterfly in the northern half of Java, nor 

 have I ever received it from there, while, on the other hand, I obtained several 

 from the southern half, I am inclined to think that it is restricted to that 

 part of the island, including East Java in its range. Fruhstorfer also found 

 it on the south coast of West Java.

Fruhstorfer distinguishes the Java specimens under the local name of 

 Alcidice. 



Snellen has noted in reference to this species : 



"The Javanese specimens belong to the form Alcidice Godart or Thoosa Hbn., 

 with only three or four white streaks, shorter than those in the type, near the 

 inner margin of the hind-wings".

I have never observed this butterfly at Batavia but it is common at Depok 

 and many other places. The 6 appear to be commoner than the 9. although 

 the latter are not rare. The fading to white in this species takes place in a 

 peculiar manner which likewise appears to occur in Papti.io Caunus Westvv.
