Remark. — After carefully examining a number of specimens of 

 this species from all the localities above enumerated, I am enabled 

 to say that I can detect no difference between the alleged species 

 Aceris, Matuta, and Eurynome. Specimens measuring in expanse 

 from l-§ to 7,\ inches are obtained from the same locality, and the 

 Chinese specimens are generally larger, some being 1\ inches in 

 expanse ; those from the latter locality have been named Eurynome 

 by Mr. Westwood, the type- specimen of which I have examined.

21. Neptis Duryodana, Moore. (PI. XLIX. f. 8.) 



Neptis Duryodana, n. sp. — Differs from Bornean specimens of 

 Nep. Aceris, in being of a much blacker colour on the upper-side, 

 the markings also being much whiter ; and in the under-side being 

 brown, where the inner band of the hind-wing does not extend to 

 the inner margin as in that species, and the marginal and submar- 

 ginal lines are more curved. Expanse 2\ inches.
