620 MR. A. G. BUTLER ON LEPIDOPTERA FROM [May 3, 



the species is not identical with T. robusta. As, however, the latter 

 comes from South Africa, and is less heavily marked and paler than 

 the Indian specimens in the collection of the British Museum, I 

 hesitate to regard the two forms as conspecific.
