Dr. Butler has here, as elsewhere, fouuded his many species on 

 characters which are subject to seasonal variation, and they there- 

 fore merge imperceptibly into one another. The most heavily- 

 marked form is T. Urabatus, from Ceylon and Southern India, but 

 the slightly broader border in secondaries is, in my opinion, much 

 too unstable to be regarded as a specific distinction. T. himhura 

 represents the normal dry-season colouring. T. etr'ula is the Asiatic 

 representative of T. evippe, and appears to range practically 

 throughout India and Ceylon, and there is one specimen in the 

 British Museum from Fao.
