towards the apex of fore wing above. On the hind wing there is a 

 well-defined dull patch at the base quite free from blue scales, and 

 the tuft of hairs at the base of the hind margin below, which is 

 present in all the other Camenas I know except C. cotys, is absent or 

 Tery much reduced. The venation agrees with that of C. icetas. 



Described from a single male taken on the Karen Hills at 4000- 

 5000 feet. 



Camena cleoboides, n. sp. (Plate XLIV. figs. 4 (? , 5 $ .) 



Most Hke G. cleolis, Godt., but differs in having in the male a 

 large round velvet patch free from blue scales in the cell of the fore 

 wing and with raised androconia. It is smaller in size and has the 

 transverse band on the underside nearer the base and directed more 

 inwards from the hind margin. The band is pale yellow and there is 

 more yellow at the anal angle than in C cleobis. The shining patch 

 at the base of hind margin of fore wing below, seen in G. cleobis, is 

 wanting, and there is no trace of the tuft of black hairs in the same 

 place. 



5 . Similar, but of a duller paler blue as in G. cleobis, and without 

 the velvety patch on fore wing. 



Described from four males and two females taken in the Karen 

 Hills. This species is allied to lolaus isceus, Hew., from Sarawak, 

 of which Tajuria relata, Dist., is the female. I have this latter from 

 Nias Island in both sexes and a single worn male from Perak. 



The venation of G. cleoboides differs from that of G. cleobis and 

 G. relata in having only two branches to the subcostal, and it may 

 perhaps on this account, and owing to the well-marked patch on the 

 male, form a new subgenus.

A female from Margharita agreeing with Khasia specimens, but 

 larger and with longer tails.

A male and two females from the Karen Hills are unlike any 

 other form of this genus in my collection, and do not agree with any 

 of those described in the * Butterflies of India ;' but I am unable to 

 separate them specifically on account of the great amount of varia- 

 tion which prevails in this genus, in which I think too many species 

 have already been made. 



Above they resemble A. vulcanus in colour, having a slight tinge of 

 blue at the base of the hind wing and a few blue scales at base of 

 fore wing in both sexes. Below they resemble what de Niceville 

 calls elima, Hew., and uniformis, Moore, from Kashmir, in the dull
