308 Mr. H. J. Elwes’ catalogue of the 
stand and discriminate without perfectly fresh speci- 
mens of both sexes; but, as my collection now con- 
tains very fine series of almost all of them, I will 
give a résumé of their characters and distribution, which 
may be useful to those who are not so well off, and 
which, though much shorter than that given in the 
‘ Butterflies of India,’ will, I think, be found correct :—

fore wing above, below the median nervure.

hind wing above.
