middle of the rainy season, therefore — on the Gounoung Kidoul, prov. 

 Jokjakarta, so that I am unable to admit the separate wet-season race Marshalli 

 Butl. of Fruhstorfer, at least as far as Java is concerved. Neither can 

 Baldus and Horsfieldi be regarded as distinct species, since a specimen, taken 

 by me at the height of the rainy season in the province of Jokjokarta, is 

 clearly intermediate to a certain extent between the two, the upper side as 

 well as the pronounced ocelli on the under side agreeing entirely with those in 

 Bai.dus, while, on the other hand, the strong white powdering of the under 

 side clearly accords with that of Horsfieldi. 



The larva feeds on rouinpout paliit (Paspalum conjugatum Berg) and on 

 the grass known as giyufyngan (Cynodon Dactylon Pers.). The young cater- 

 pillar is greenish, but subsequently turns to a faint loam colour or yellowish 

 white, almost colourless. It has a dark dorsal line and a light band along the 

 ventral boundary, sometimes with more or less longitudinal lines on the head 

 which, however, are much more distinct in some specimens than in others. 

 The tail part terminates in two projections which, like the body, are closely 

 invested with very short black or white hairs which can only be seen distinctly 

 with a strong lens. The head is round but with two short projections. The 

 chrysalis is suspended from a grass stem. A pupa of 3'''^ February produced 

 the imago on the ii''' of the same month while from one of 25''^ March the 

 perfect insect emerged on y'^ April. The figures given by Moore of the cater- 

 pillar and chrysalis are very indistinct.
