10. Euploea hopei.

 the other, a female, fromPmyoung, 1000 ft., in theterai 

 at the foot of the hills. It is evidently widely distri- 

 buted. 



SATYKIN^. 

 11. Mycalesis a7iaxiaii. 

 One specimen in February near Thibaw. 



12. Mycalesis mediis. 



Not a common insect in the Shan States, but common 

 enough in Upper Burma. Mr. Elwes considers this the 

 rainy season form of the next species, and my specimens 

 of medus were taken in the rains. 



13. Mycalesis runcka. 

 Not rare in the cold weather. 



14. Mycalesis perseus. 



' Butterflies of India,' vol. i., p. 120. 



Very common. I have not the variety visnla. My 

 small series of eighteen specimens seem to show that 

 specimens taken at the end of the rains are very much 

 darker on the under side than those taken at the end of 

 the dry weather. I have specimens taken at this time 

 which are quite ochreous, with the discal band whitish. 

 I believe a good series would show every intermediate 

 shade, from dark plumbeous grey to pale ochreous, which 

 would coincide with the rainy and dry seasons. 



15. Mycalesis mineiis. 



A very common species, and varies much both in the 

 size of the ocellus and depth of colouring. 



16. Mycalesis sanatana. 

 One specimen from Bernardmyo. 



17. Mycalesis malsara. 

 A common insect, as far as my experience goes.
