(134) Kerana. Swinhoe re-names this Tamela. 



(135) Stimula. This unfortunate genus started life as Watsonia, El. 

 and Ed., the name was found to be pre-occupied and changed to Stimula 

 DeN., Bery has discovered that this also is pre-occupied and has re-named 

 it Watsoniella. 



(136) Plastingia callineura, Fd. Swinhoe considers this doubtfully Indian; 

 he adds latoia, Hew., to the list of Indian butterflies on the strength of a 

 specimen caught on Sullivan Island. 



(137) Plastingia idyalis, DeN. Not Indian according to Swinhoe. 



(138) Plastingia pugnans, DeN. This was described from Borneo ; 

 Swinhoe records it from the Ataran Valley. Tenasserim. 



(139) Lotongus zeus, DeN. The type was from Borneo ; Fruhstorfer 

 states that the Indian form is different and names it zeus optimus ; Swinhoe 

 gives it as Zela optimus. 



(140) Zea taprobanus, Plotz. Not an Indian butterfly. 



(141) Hidari irava, M. Swinhoe states that the oldest name for this 

 butterfly is thrax, Hub. (nee. Linneeus). 



(142) Pithauria aitchisonii, W. M. and DeN. Swinhoe gives this as Pithau 

 riopsis marsena, Hew. Marsena was described from a female and aitchisonii- 

 from a male ; Piepers, in Java, captured the two in copula. 



(143) Notocrypta feisthamellii, Bdl. Swinhoe gives this from India, 

 Burma, Ceylon and the Andamans. Also as separate species restricta, M., 

 from India, Burma and Ceylon and albifascia, M., from Burma. 



10. Mr. W.M.Crawford, I.e. S., recently sent me some butterflies caught 

 by him in January 1913 in the Meghasani Hills, 3,800 feet, Morbhanj 

 District, Orissa. Amongst them were the following butterflies, which have 

 not, as far as I know, been recorded from South of the Himalayas, viz : 

 Apatura parisatis, Grod.; Parhestina persimilis, Wd. ; Papilio helena cerberus, 

 Fd. ; Papilio cliaon, Wd. ; Papilio paris, L. ; Papilio doson axion, Fd. The 

 last butterfly has also been caught in Sambalpur where Mr, Crawford 

 has lately obtained a female of Appias lihythea, Fab. The single specimen 

 of P. helena cerberus that was obtained is a male with a post-discal row 

 of prominent black spots on the yellow area of the hind wing thus resembl- 

 ing Papilio darsius. Gray ; ab cambyses, Ehrm. The specimens of P. 

 paris resemble the small cold weather form of this insect, but with the 

 green patch on the hind wing enlarged, thus approaching the Southern 

 race ta^nilana, M.
