Dr. Chapman in P. Z. S., 1909, 



I. p. 419 gave a revision of 

 the genus "Lycsenopsis" (i-'ict 

 Cyaniris rejected) based on 

 the male organs ; lilacea was 

 unfortunately omitted : with 

 a few alterations Dr. Chap- 

 man's arrangement is here

ing the male organs I do not 

 see how musinoides is to be 

 distinguished from jynteana,

Dr. Chapman states that placi- 

 da and jynteana are races of 

 limbata ; I have seen the spe- 

 cimens he examined and each 

 of the so called jynteana I , 

 would have identified as pla- 

 cida : Moore's type of jynte- 

 ana from the Khasi Hills ( I ' 

 have not seen DeN's type) and 

 of sikkima from Sikkim are 

 forms of argiolus and I am 

 sure that an examination of 

 their male organs would con- 

 firm this.

 Chapman's varieties are 

 worth retaining : "Victoria is, I

 this to describe a new species 

 from a single specimen with- 

 out even examining the geni- 

 talia is inadvisable.
