As Mr. Moore observes, .Y. harita is closely allied to .V. vikasi, "but may be distingnisbed 

 from it by its smaller size, less distinct markings, and in the si;bmarginal band of the bind 

 wing being formed of distinct lunules." The last character is the only reliable one I can fnid, 

 and I therefore prefer to look upon it as a vaiietal form only. The figure here "iven of 

 N. vikasi has already (aiitea, p. 152) been reported as unsatisfactory. 



14. Neptis anjana, car. (Tab. XXXVI., lig. 11.) 



Neptis Aiijiimi, Moore, Trans. Eut. Soc. 1881, p. 309. 



The following is the original description of this species : — 



",?. Upper side very dark olivaceous-broNvn ; fore wing with a slender, but not very proniiiuiit, 

 ochreous-browu narrow discoidal streak, a curved discal macular band, a subraarginal and a less distinct 

 marginal line ; hind wing with a slender transverse subbasal band, a recurved discalband, and narrower 

 but less distinct marginal line. Underside dark chestnut-red; fore wing with the discoidal Ktre^tk, 

 transverse outer bands glossy purplish blue, the lower part of the discal band being pale ochreons ; liind 

 wing with two medial, two discal bands, a very slender marginal glossy purplish blue and a broad paler 

 basal band."' 



Exp. wings, " 2^ inches." 



H.U3.— Burma; Moulmein (coll. Moore). — Malay Peninsula; Perak (lumstb— coll. Eibbe) ; Sungti 

 Ujong (Durnford — coll. Dist.). 



A specimen received from Sungei Ujong is here figured. I have carefully conii)ared 

 this specimen with Mr. Moore's Moulmein type, and find slight differences in the following 

 particulars :— it is darker, the discal bands beneath are slightly wider apart, and the 

 submarginal fascia is somewhat less luiiular ; Ijut all these differences are not constant, as a 

 Perak specimen in the collection of Herr Eibbe is much lighter in hue. 



N. cuijana is here arranged after A", rikasl. 



Genus ATHYMA [antea, p. 156). 

 6. Athyma kresna (aiitca, p. 161). 



Since describing the female as differing in "no essential respects from the male," the 

 only distinguishing character being that in the female the cellular streak of the anterior wings 

 is apparently never broken, Mr. Moore has pointed out to me that this female represents his 

 A. kanwa,* and he considers the true female to be a yellow and brown form, much like the 

 corresponding sex of A. ticftc, or again it may be his A. subrafa (antea, p. 16-1), of which also 

 female specimens are alone known. Breeding must decide this point, and my own opinion 

 leans to the supposition that all these three distinctly marked females belong to A. krcsiia, and 

 are trimorphic varieties of that species. 



Genus HYPOLIMNAS {antra, p. 164). 

 4. Hypolimnas anomala {antct, p. 160). (Tab. XLL, f. 1, 2 J : 3, 4 2 .) 



Since giving the description of the above species I have received a fair series of specimens, 

 and am now able to give figures of both sexes. It is, like most of the other members of the 

 genus, a very variable species.
