Hah. N. India. 



The Natural History Museum possesses three specimens of 

 what may possibly be a second Indian species, the hind wings 

 being apparently much narrower than in the typical form ; 

 but this may perhaps be due merely to the pubescence being 

 more closely appressed to the shaft of the wing.

Hub. Baghdad. 



Found in abundance in houses in the evening towards the 

 end of May by Olivier, and described by him ; but no further 

 information about the species has been given by any author, 

 and it was apparently unknown in nature even to Rambur.
