HESPERID^. 



201. Badamia exclamationis. 

 Occurs commonly throughout the Shan States. 



202. Ismene Benjamini. 

 Widely distributed and common. 



203. Ismene jaina. 

 The males are not uncommon, but I have not seen 

 the female. 



204. Hasora chromus. 

 Common during the rains. 



205. Pithauria murdava. 

 Not uncommon during the rains at 3000 ft. 



206. Baoris oceia. 

 Not uncommon, but varies considerably both in size 

 and in the number of spots on the fore wing. 



207. Parnara toona. 

 Probably not uncommon. No doubt many other 

 species of Parnara occur, which I overlooked owing to 

 their close similarity. 



208. Sarangesa dasahara. 

 Very common and widely distributed both in the 

 Southern and Northern Shan States. 



209. Telicota hamhusa. 

 Not uncommon, but local, as far as my experience 

 goes. 



210. Telicota augias. 

 Not uncommon. It seems to prefer the open down 

 country at 4000 — 5000 ft., whereas T. hambusce I have 

 generally found on the outskirts of thick jungle. 



211. Telicota dara. 

 Abundant everywhere.
