I found these four species very common in April 1912 at the 

 Siamese -Survey camp in the Huey Me Pradone in N. Lat. IS'^ and, 

 E. Long. 99°. 80'. Mijrrha was an occasional visitor, but the others 

 were present in crowds throughout the day. In the early mornings, 

 the butterflies were to be found resting on rocks and stones near the 

 river-side ; later in the daj' they congregated on moist patches of 

 ground around the camp, and remained there till quite lato in the 

 afternoon, being the last of all tlie butterflies to leave. Spots fouled 

 with urine had a particular attraction for them. They also congregated 

 on clothes drying in the sun. liohini is not uncommon in other 

 parts of Siam, alompra and mijrrha are scarce. I have not since come 

 across hauxivelli. 'I have follnwed Bingham in recording hauxwelH 



* I RUi unable at present to refer these three butterflies to their particu- 

 lar races.
