For the past three years I have received monthly 
consignments of Lepidoptera from the Khasia Hills, 
captured by the native collectors of the Rev. Walter A. 
Hamilton, and, as he employs several collectors, this 
list ought to be fairly complete, and I have thought it 
worthy of publication, because there seem to have been 
fewer Lepidoptera recorded from the Khasia Hills than 
from almost any‘other locality in India. 
The new species in the Rhopalocera are, as might be 
expected, but few; in the Heterocera there are very 
many. I have followed Moore’s classification in the 
Eupleine and Satyrine, de Nicéville’s in the Nympha- 
line and Lycenide, and Watson’s classification of the 
‘Hesperide (P.Z.S8., 1898, p. 3), to whom I have sub- 
mitted all my new species of Hesperide for examination, 
being the latest classification recognised by Indian lepi- 
dopterists. In the Pierine (which are very limited), and 
the Papilionine, I have followed the arrangement in my 
own museum. In the Heterocera, I have followed 
Hampson’s classification of the Sphinges, Bombyces, 
Noctues, and Deltoides, and Meyrick’s classification of 
the Geometers and Pyrales, altering the order in which 
they run to suit the present knowledge of the subject.
