Lepidoptera collected in the Slian States. 538 



163. Delias liierte. 

 Not uncommon, and occurs also in Eastern Karenni. 



164. Delias agostina. 

 Widely distributed at low elevations. In the Mone 

 Valley it is abundant. 



165. Delias belladonna var. horsfeldii. 

 I have one female specimen from Koni, 4500 ft., which 

 has the abdominal margin brilliantly yellow. It is most 

 unfortunate that I was unaware of the vexed question 

 concerning the three supposed species, belladonna, 

 horsfeldii, and ithiela ; otherwise I might have done 

 something towards settling it by collecting a large 

 number of specimens. 



166. Prioneris thestylis. 

 I have specimens from Fort Stedman and Bernardmj'o. 

 My female specimens are mimics of the above, but the 

 yellow on the abdominal margin is not so well-marked. 



167. Prioneris clemanthe var. Watsoni. 

 Not taken in the Shan States, and but rarely in 

 Karenni. 



168. Catopsilia pyranthe. 

 Abundant all over the country at all elevations. 



169. Catopsilia catilla. 

 The most abundant of the Pierince, and found every- 

 where. 



170. Catopsilia jugurthina. 

 Widely distributed at low elevations. 



173 Terias hecabc. 

 An abundant insect everywhere. My specimens tend 

 to bear out Mr. Elwes' statements regarding the number- 

 less described species being merely seasonal varieties of 

 the same species. 



172. Terias senna. 

 Not uncommon at Koni. It varies greatly in size.
