656 MR. H. J. ELWES ON BUTTERFLIES FROM [DeC. 6, 



variation in the spots of the fore wing, in the marking of the under- 

 side, but all seem to me to belong to one species, as I have the two 

 forms also from Pulo Laut. 



Tagiades tripura. 



T. tripura, de Nicev. Journ. Bomb. Nat. Hist. Soc. 1891, p. 392, 

 t. G. 39 2 .

 by Doherty. 



Abaratha syricthus, var. (Plate XLIII. fig. 2, var., S .) 



Pterygospidea syricthus, Eeld. Reise Nov. iii. p. 530, t. Ixxii. 22, 

 23. 



Four specimens from Bernardrayo are so very small that they 

 might be supposed to be another species, especially as the white 

 marks at the base of the hind wing above are almost obsolete ; but 

 the identity of the position of all the spots and the peculiar shaped 

 hind wing incline me to believe that they are only a form of 

 A. syricthus, which I also have from Bhamo, the Shan Hills, and Java. 



Abaratha pygela. 



Fterygospidea pyqela, Hew. Descr. Hesp. p. 53 (1868) ; Ex. Butt.
