Java and Manilla {Plotz). 



The white spots on intermedia from Java are more 

 pronounced than those on the Manilla insect, but the 

 size of the spots on the fore-wings and the number of 

 spots of the hind-wings are very variable ; I have an 

 example from the Philippines with the spots quite as 

 prominent and complete as those in the Javan example 

 figured by Plotz ; hada is only a small form of Parnara 

 guttata, Brem., from China and Japan, of which I have 

 many examples, but it seems to be a constant form 

 without any spots at the end of the cell of fore-wings, 

 and is common in India and the Islands.

Africa (Plotz). 



This certainly is a Parnara and not a Cha;pra ; neither 

 the figure nor the description show any stigma ; it very 

 closely resembles guttatus, Brem.

This insect is unknown to me. 



Parnara poutieri. PI. II, fig. 19.

Madagascar {Plotz). 



Plotz's figure looks like poutieri, it comes from the 

 same locality and has no stigma, and therefore I think 

 Dr. Holland was wrong to sink it to mathias ; he does not 

 say that he saw Plotz's type.
