Habitat. — Cherra Punji ; Kbasia Hills ; Tenasserim. 



Note. — The above description is taken from Colonel Swinboe's type, wliich 

 is identical with Mr. de Niceville's figure, wbicli latter, lie states (Sikkim Gazetteer, 

 1894, 144), " is very pale, and evidently belonged to the dry-season form, while 

 Delmana probably represents the rainy-season form." 



Distribution. — Colonel Swinhoe's type was taken at Cherra Punji. We possess 

 a male taken in the Khasias by Colonel Godwin Austen. Mr. de Niceville's type 

 was taken in the "Attaran Valley, Mepley, and the Daunat Range in Middle 

 Tenasserim " {I.e. 353). It is also recorded by Mr. de Niceville from N.E. Sumatra

 broad marginal band, broadest on the inner margin, fining away to nothing 

 before reaching the apex, the band at the anal angle bearing a small patch 

 of greenish scales. Hindunng with the costa and outer margin broadly bronzy-
