with Distant's good illustration and with a single pair from Pulo Laut, 

 Borneo, which I think are the true »S. amha. There is, however, a 

 nearly allied but, as I think, distinct species, which also occurs in Pulo 

 Laut, and may be Hypolyecena amba, Kirby, of which neither Hewit- 

 son's nor Distant's figures are clear in the distinctive points. In this 

 the male has the costa of hind wing broadly black, the purple on fore 

 wings more diffused, the markings of the underside more broken, 

 and the colour of the base much paler ; the tails and hind wings 

 with broad white fringes. If this proves constant, as it is in four 

 specimens I have, the Pegu and Perak forms may be called 

 8. amboides.

One female from the Naga Hills and another from Bernardmyo 

 agree perfectly with the type. It is very strange that in these places, 

 as in Sikkim, the male of this species seems so difficult to procure, 

 whilst in many of the allied species the females are taken very 

 rarely.

I am indebted to Major Adamson for a female of this species from 

 Moulmein, this being, I think, its first certainly recorded occurrence 

 in British India.
