SATYRIDAE. 



The Java Satyridae are butterflies which, with a few exceptions, do not 

 seek strong sunshine but rather frequent shady places and fly also when the 

 sky is overcast ; some species are actually met with in those parts of the 

 mountains which are mostly enveloped in clouds and are consequently very 

 foggy and damp. Some are on the wing during morning and evening twilight, 

 but in day time onl)' when disturbed and since the latter is the case with 

 many other species it is very probable that these also are twilight butterflies. 

 Of the larvae we have but a very incomplete knowledge, but they appear to 

 live principally on graminaceous plants.
