1891.] THE NAGA AND KAREN HILLS AND PERAK. 269 



at about 1500 feet, of which several females and one male were 

 by him supposed to be, anrl marked as, a distinct species. These cor- 

 respond to the female taken in the Thoungyeen forests by Major 

 Bingham and described by Marshall and de Niceville, Butt. Ind. i. 

 p. 237, as nearer to E. medura of Java than to E. angularis. 



After examining the series closely and comparing them with one 

 Javan specimen, I do not see how to separate the two species, for, 

 though in the supposed new species the ocelli on the upperside of the 

 hind wing are much larger than in the other form from the same 

 locality, whilst on the underside both the ocelli and the bands are 

 almost ohsolete, I am rather inclined to suspect seasonal dimorphism, 

 and to think that this form is the last of the first brood, and the 

 others, among which males are far more numerous, are the first of a 

 second brood. In the Javan specimen we have the hind wing like one 

 form below and the other above. Further observations are requisite 

 in order to decide the question. 



Callerebia orixa. 



C. orixa, Moore, P. Z. S. 1872, p. 555 ; Butt. Ind. i. p. 245. 



Erebia polyphemus, Oberthiir, Et. Ent. ii. p. 33, t. ii. 2S (1876). 



Several specimens from the Naga Hills agree with those I took in 

 the Khasias, and cannot be separated from Chinese examples, of 

 which I have two from near Ichang, two from Ta-tsien-lo, and one 

 from Moupin. The female, which is undescribed, does not diflfer 

 from the male except in being slightly paler in colour. 



CyLLOGENES JANETS. 



C.janet(B, de Nicev. P. Z. S. 1887, p. 453. 



A single male was taken by Doherty in the Naga Hills, and agrees 

 with a specimen from Bhutan in my collection.

 another from Perak.

 E. obnubila. Marsh. Butt. Ind. i. p. 272. 



Rare in the Karen Hills at about 2000 feet in April ; Doherty 

 says that he has also taken it west of Bassein.
