"Westerly race is anomala and to this form belongs the female in 

 Mr. Ollenbach's collection. The butterfly resembles the dry season female 

 form of boLina, but is somewhat smaller ; the ground colour is black with, 

 on both wings, a subterminal row of small white spots in each interspace 

 followed by a terminal row of two minute white spots in each space ; there 

 are also three obscure long white dashes between the cell on the fore wing. 

 The female is shot with brilliant blue all over the forewing. This is one of 

 the few species in which the female is more brilliantly coloured than the 

 male. 



{d) The following records of butterflies caught in Chinese Turkestan 

 may prove of interest : 



Mesapia peloria, Hew, a rather pale form and Coenonympha sinica, Alph. 

 Suchow, 9,500 feet, August 1907. 



Parnassius actius caesap, Stg., near ab actinobolus, Stg., and szechenyi, Friv. 

 Uch Turf an, 9,000 feet, July 1907. 



Colias cocandica, Ersch, a rather dark specimen, Hindutash Darwan 

 14,500 feet, July 1907. 



(e) A specimen of Papilio memnon agenor, L., female form agenor with all 

 the white markings much developed ; the whole of the hindwing and the 

 lower portion of the forewing are entirely white. It resembles the form 

 venuda described by Dr. Jordan from Borneo. The specimen was caught 

 in the Khasi Hills in September 1906. 



(/) A specimen belonging to the genus Enthalia (Dophla), probably a 

 female. The forewing resembles exactly the forewing of sahadeva female 

 while the hindwing is an exact copy of the hindwing of duda female. 

 Were this the only specimen known, one would take it for a hybrid, but 

 Colonel Tytler has obtained, in the Naga Hills, several males and females 

 similarly marked and so it may be taken to represent a new species inter- 

 mediate between d^(da and sahadeva. Colonel Tytler has informed me that 

 he intends to describe his specimens. Mr. Ollenbach's specimen was taken 

 in the Khasi HiUs in October 1906. 



(ff) Two aberrations or possibly extreme dry season forms of Pareronia 

 hippia, Fab., males taken near Dehra Dun in October 1909. The marginal 

 band on the fore wing is very reduced and there are no spots on the ground 

 colour enclosed. Mr. OUenbach informs me that the head, thorax and 

 abdomen are covered with white down and the veins and marginal 

 markings are pale brown. 



7. Occurrence of Ypthima philomela, Joh. in lower Burma. Mr. E. V. 

 Ellis has just sent me a long series of the dry season form of this species 

 caught at Yetho near Tharrawaddy during February 1913. In size the 

 specimens resemble the South Indian form ; above the bi-pupilled ocellus 

 on the forewing and the two ocelli on the hindwing are bright and clearly 

 defined as in race indecora from the Western Himalayas. Below they 

 resemble the dry season form of inica, but, when visible, the ocelli are 

 arranged as in philomela ; there are traces of a discal band on the fore- 

 wing and of a discal and sub-basal band on the hindwing.
