186 SPOLIA ZEYLANICA. 
233. Breasis SENA.—Also found in India and Siam, 
The colour of the cilia on the hind wing and the patch of 
long hairs on the dorsum, above the tornus, varies from rather 
pale orange to orange-vermillion in freshly caught specimens. 
The fore wing of the female is broader than that of the male, 
and the hind wing is more rounded. 
T consider ita rarity. I have taken one or two specimens on 
this estate, and in December, 1904, I found several inside 
Wellawaya resthouse settled on the walls. They were very 
wary and. difficult to catch, so I only got three or four ; the 
others did not return to the resthouse that day. With these 
exceptions, I have never come across it. 
The prehensores are figured on PI. 8, figs. 9 and 10. 
“Found at Kandy and Pundaluoya ” (F. M. Mackwood). - 
234. BaDAMIA EXCLAMATIONIS.—Also found in India, 
Burma, Malaya, China, and Australia. 
It appears in great numbers at times, usually in company 
with H. alexis and butlert. It has the same habits as these, 
but seems to be less afraid of the sun, and to visit flowers more 
on a bright day. 
I have notes of its occurrence at Haldummulla, Haputale, 
Kandy, Galle, Vavuniya, and Mannar, and believe it to be 
common everywhere at times. 
The prehensores are figured on Pl. 8, figs. 1] and 12. That 
of the clasp is poor, as it does not show the formidable 
armament of spines on the inner face. 
“ All over the low-country, and up to 5,000 feet or over ” 
(F. M. Mackwood). 
235. RHOPOLACAMPTA BENJAMINIT, E.; Choaspes benja- 
minit. M.—Found also in India, Burma, China, Japan, 
Borneo, &c. 
There seems to be a doubt as to whether two species are not 
included, under this name, I therefore figure the prehensores 
of our Ceylon form. PI. 8, figs. 7 and 8. 
It is fairly common in the hills, and was formerly very 
plentiful on the cart road below the Haputale jungle, but since 
the Forest Department has cleaned out the original vegetation 
and planted Eucalyptus in its place, this and other hill insects 
have, of course, disappeared. It is still common between
