Lepidoptera collected in the Shan States. 535 



182. Eronia hipjna. 

 Widely distributed. I have it from the plains of Upper 

 Burma, and from intervening places between them and 

 Mone. It is found more abundantly at low elevations. 



183. Hebomoia glaiicippe. 

 Occurs commonly all over the Shan States. Its 

 resemblance to a withered leaf when settled on wet mud 

 is exact. The upper wings are folded so closely behind 

 the lower that only the pointed tips project, forming, 

 as it were, the end of the leaf; while the speckled hind 

 wings with the fuscous discal line form the base and 

 midrib to perfection. 



184. Ixias pyrene. 

 Common everywhere, but is more abundant in the 

 Burma plains. 



PAPILIONINiE. 

 185. Ornithoptcra rJiadamantJtus. 

 Very common in the low valleys, 800 — 3000 ft. 



186. Papilio aidoneus. 

 Not an uncommon species. It is fond of the deep 

 shade of forest trees overhanging streams, under which 

 it Hies with a slow graceful flight. 



187. Papilio philoxenus. 

 Abundant and widely distributed. 



188. Papilio aristolocMce. 

 Very common, but not found, I think, above 5000 ft. 



189. Papilio paris. 

 A common species everywhere ; also in Karenni. 



190. Papilio rhctenor. 

 Apparently an uncommon species, as I have only 

 taken it at Fort Stedman in October.
