NEW INDO-MALAYAN BUTTERFLIES. 335 



Thaungyin Valley, Middle Tenasserim, by Major C. T. Bingham, 

 who has generously presented the specimen to me. 



11. THECLA LEECHII, n. sp. 



Habitat: Khasi Hills (^ami7^o?i) ; Western China {Leech). 



In the Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society, vol. vi, 

 p. 374 et seq., pi. F, fig. 17 (1891), I described and figured the 

 female of a species of Satsuina {^=Thecla) from, the Khasi Hills, but 

 did not name it, as my unique specimen was damaged. I have 

 since received another female in perfect condition from the same 

 region through the kindness of the Rev. Walter A. Hamilton, and 

 propose now to name the species Thecla leecliii after my friend 

 Mr. J. H. Leech, the author of many papers on paltBarctic Lepidop- 

 tera, and of "Batterflies from China, Japan, and Corea.'' He 

 informs me that the species occurs also in Western China, and that 

 it is quite distinct from TJiecla (Satsuma) chalyheia, Leech, and 

 T. {S.) fratti, Leech, both of which were described from unique 

 male examples. 



My friend Heer P. C. T. Snellen of Rotterdam is quite of my 

 opinion that 8atsuma is a genus which should be sunk under 

 Thecla, and writes to me that Thecla fvivcddszhyi, of Lederer, which 

 is the type of Satsuma, agrees absolutely in structure with the 

 Biitish "Green Hairstreak," Thecla ruhi, Liuuteas.
