long grey hairs. Underside : pale markings as above but much broader and 

 distinct ; the subterminal row of pale spots on hindwing continued into 

 interspace 1-b. 



Body above black, sides of body at junction of the forewings red ; under- 

 neath black, red near base of hindwings. 



Antennse black ; eyes brown. 



Expanse : 6 6 3-5— 3-62". 



Two males were obtained by Captain Porter on the Dihang River, Abor 

 Hills, in Jiine and July, and kindly presented by him tome. 



Its nearest ally appears to be C. saka, Moore, with the figure of which it 

 agrees in having the white area in basal half of cell, forewing, divided by a 

 black streak ; but differs in the following respects : — 



Upperside : much darker. Forewing : cell almost entirely black with only 

 faint traces of white ; discal spots smaller ; base of interspace 1 pure cream 

 colour. Hindwing : white area in cell very restricted and distinctly divided ; 

 the lower portion not as long as upper portion ; all the markings smaller : 

 interspaces 1-a and 1-b not entirely white, the outer halves being black. 

 Thorax above black, the red hairs being confined to the sides of the body ; 

 the lower discocellular of cell of hindwing distinctly concave and not 

 straight, ending at the junction of veins 3 and 4 and not above it. 



It is quite different to C. davidis, from Western China, of which I have 

 two specimens before me.

DODONA DEODATA LONGICATJDATA, de N. 



A single female taken at Gaspani, Naga Hills, 1,500' in October is very 

 close to Bingham's figure of lonyicaudata, F. of B. 1. Butterflies, vol. 1, p. 

 488, fig. 88, which is probably a wet-season form. 



A male taken on the Cachar Road, Manipur, in December, and a female 

 taken near the same place in November agree with deNiceville's type ; a 

 female taken with the above female has the white bands broader and agrees 

 exactly with Elwes' figure of D. deodata from the Karen Hills ; P.Z.S., 

 1891, Plate XXVII. 



D. longicandata is certainly a race of if not typical D. deodata itself ; 

 specimens of the latter in the de Niceville collection have the white bands, 

 which are somewhat variable in width, rather broader than the dry-season 

 form of longicandata and are probably extreme dry-season forms. 



Taxila haquinus fasciata, Moore. 



Occurs not uncommonly near Sebong at the foot of the Eastern Mani- 

 pur Hills from February to April. A pair were also taken at the same 

 place in October. I have taken this form at the foot of the Lushin Hills 

 near the Cachar border. 



Abisaka attenuata, n. sp. (PL II, Fig. 15 cJ). 



This may prove to be a race of Abisara atlas from Java. It differs from 

 atlas in having the discal band viuch narroioer and curved inwards at the 

 costa, in atlas it curves outioards at the costa. 



A single specimen was taken on the Barak River, Western Manipur Hills, 

 in March. 



Abisaka echerixjs, Stoll. 



Numerous males and three females, and which agree almost exactly with 

 specimens in the Indian Museum ticketed echerius ironxChiiia, were obtain- 

 ed near Sebong in October, November and January.
