94. Euripus halitherses, Doubleday. — Males taken commonly at the foot 

 of the hills and npto 2,000 ft. Also a single specimen as high as Kohima. 

 A few specimens of the female form isa, Moore, were obtained in April, 

 July, October and November and a single specimen of the form cinnaonomeus, 

 Wood-Mason, was obtained at 4.500 ft. in October. The females are by 

 no means common. 



95. Sephisa Chandra, Moore. — A single male taken at the foot of the 

 hills in May and several males and a single female (Moore's fourth form) 

 taken near Kohima in September and October. Several more were seen 

 flying round the tops of the trees in my garden. A female was seen as late 

 as December, it was benumbed in the cold and I nearly succeeded in catch- 

 ing it with my fingers, having no net with me at the time. The female 

 differs in structure a good deal from the male in having the palpi much 

 longer than in that sex and in the specimen obtained it is nearly three 

 times as long. This peculiarity, which gives the insect a curious effect, 

 does not appear to be recorded by either de Niceville, Moore or Bingham. 



96. Neurosigma doubledayi, Westivood. — Recorded from the Naga Hills, but 

 I have not met with it. 



97. Stibochiana nicea, Gray. — Not imcommon at the foot of the hills from 

 January to August and as r5,000 — 6,000 ft. from September to November. 

 A dry season form taken in January is much smaller, the postdiscal blue 

 band on the hindwing is not sinuous and is better defined ; the subter- 

 minal spots have the inner blue border aiid outer white border broader, 

 the latter almost reaching the termen, the black central spots very small 

 and the terminal black line verj'^ narrow ; all the blue markings are much 

 paler and brighter. Figure 2, plate 217, Lep. Ind., vol. iii evidently is 

 intended to represent this extreme dry season form. 



98. SymphoBdra khasiana, Swinhoe. — A few specimens taken at the foot of 

 the hills in April, June and October. The males differ from my Bhutan 

 specimens in having the ochreous spots on the forewing more conspicuous 

 and the terminal band more developed in some specimens almost as in S. 

 dirtea, the subterminal band on the hindwing is also bluer and not so 

 violescent. The solitary female taken has all the spots tinged with 

 ochreous. The form from these hills appears to be intermediate between 

 the form from Bhutan and S. dirtea from Burma. 



99. Dophia nara, Moore. — Two males taken in .July and eight males in 

 August at .'5,000—6,000 ft. 



100. Oophia sahadeva, Moore. — Males not uncommon from July to Octo- 

 ber at 4,600 to 6,000 ft. Females are rare. Fresh specimens were only 

 obtainable in July and August and towards the end of the latter month 

 all the specimens taken were battered. 



101. Dophia derma, Kollar. — Apparently rare; a single female taken at 

 1,700 ft. in March and another was seen.
