EUTHALIA ANYTE. 



Adolias anyie, Hew. Ex. Butt. iii. Adol. t. ii. n (1862). 



E. amjte. Butt. Ind. ii. p. 198. 



Orcurs in the Naga Hills, whence I have what I take to he the 

 undescribed female of this species. I had it as well from Bhutan and 

 Sikkim, but had confused it with E. nara, to which it bears a close 

 resemblance. It may, however, be distinguished by the colour of 

 the underside, which is of a paler green, by the position and shape 

 of the band of spots on hind wing below, which corresponds much 

 better with that of the male E. anyte than witb E. nara, and by the 

 smaller size and rather different shape of the markings at base of 

 hind wings below. In the female from Naga Hills the band below 

 is much shorter than in the Bhutan and Sikkim females, and the 

 corresponding spots above are absent. In the male these white spots 

 take the form of a yellowish patch, varying in size but larger than 

 in the female. The fact that this female has come with the male 

 ariT/te from no less than three locaUties seems to me to confirm uiy 

 opinion \ 



EuTHALIA FRANCIiE. 



Adolias frandce, Gray, Lep. Nepal, p. 12, t. xiv. 



E.francice, Butt. Ind. ii. p. 202. 



Occurs in the Naga and Karen Hills and at Bernardmyo. The 

 specimens vary here as elsewhere in the breadth of the white bands 

 and slightly in the tint of the upperside, but after comparing a 

 large series I do not think any local races can be recognized. 



EuTHALIA SATROPACES. 



Adolias satropaces. Hew. Ent. Mo. Mag. xiii. p. 150 (1876). 

 E. satropaces. Butt. Ind. ii. p. 206. 

 Occurs in the Karen Hills. 



? EuTHALIA BIPUNCTATA, Var. 



1 Adolias bipunctata, Snell. v. Voll. Tiid. Ent. v. p. 191, t, 10. 4 

 (1862). 



A single male from Perak is unhke anything described by Distant 

 or de Niceville, and is nearest to one from Padang in Sumatra which 

 is named bipunctata by Moore. I have not the original description 

 to refer to, but the species is nearest to E. kesava and differs from it 

 in its smaller size, brighter blue border to the hind wings, and beneath 

 in having a series of small pale bluish spots near the apex of fore 

 wing, which in the Sumatran specimen are also obsolete. 



1 Since writing this I have seen in Mr. Leech's collection large numbers of 

 an insect from Western China, described by him as E. omei, which evidently 

 represents E. anyte in China ; the male has the upper part of the hind wing 

 yellowish : the female, which lie had described as a different species, is almost 

 exactly similar to the female of £■. a«_;/<e from Sikkim, and confirms the opinion I 

 hare expressed above.
