contained twenty-seven species which I had not met with, two of which, 

 viz., Melanocyma faunuloides and Papilio polla, have recently been de- 

 scribed as new by Mr. de NiceviUe ; the former of these is of special 

 interest, the only other described species of the genus being, as far as 

 known, confined to the Malay Peninsula ; and a third species obtained, 

 Pliengaris atroguttata, has hitherto only been recorded within Indian 

 limits from the Naga Hills. Of the others, Letlie latiaris, Tajuria 

 illurgis, and Armandia Udderdalii are rare and worthy of special note. 

 I also obtained from Captain Longe, E-.E., specimens of Charaxes 

 aria, Charaxes hipponax, Papilio rJietenor, and Papilio ganesa, none of 

 which I had myself met with, and which were taken near the 

 Manipur river, a few miles from Tiddim at an elevation of about 2,000 

 feet. 



From this officer also I obtained some forty-seven species which were 

 taken by a collector of his in the Manipur State between Manipur and 

 Tammu; these species are included below under the heading 

 *' Manipur," which locality must not be confused with the " Mani- 

 pur River " which at the point referred to above is some distance 

 south of the Manipur State. This collection 19 of special interest as 

 it was made in the southern and eastern portions of the State, while 

 the only other published list from the neighbourhood is one * by 

 Mr. Butler, entitled " On a Collection of Lepidoptera made at 

 Manipur and on the Borders of Assam by Dr. George Watt," the 

 species recorded in which appear to have been taken chiefly or 

 entirely in the northern portion of the State bordering on Assam., 

 Of the species taken by Captain Longe's collector, Ypthima iarba, 

 Lethe sidonis, and Colias edusina are specially noteworthy. 



Of the 320 species here recorded, the following are new to 

 science : — Mycalesis adamsonii, Ypthima cerealis, Yp)thima lycoides, 

 Lampides sp., Zepjhyrus letha, Caprona elwesii, and Taractrocera 

 atropunctata ; the types of the above, except of the species of 

 Lampides, which hag not yet been described, are in the collection of 

 Mr. de Niceviiie. 



The following species have not been previously recorded from 

 within Burmese limits, or have only been so recorded with consider- 

 able doubt : — -Mycalesis suaveolens, Ypthima methora^ Ypthima asterope,
