streak beyond the cell, a discal series of four somewhat sagittate speckled spots, one 

 each being upon the lower radial and median veinlets, followed by a submarginal 

 narrow sinuous band and then by a broader marginal band, the latter being faintly 

 traversed by reddish lunules, the three series being broadly confluent at their apical 

 end. Eindwing with the base clothed with long fine dusky hairs, and marked with two 

 blackish lower discal sagittate spots, a transverse inner discal slender line, two sub- 

 marginal narrow lunulate bands and paler outer marginal lunules ; a small pale 

 yellowish glandular pouch situated close to the abdominal base of the inner vein, the 

 pouch enclosing a tuft of short rigid hairs. Underside pale ochreous, or ochreous- 

 yellow, of more or less intensity. Both wings crossed by a brown subbasal sinuous 

 line and a straighter discal line, their inner borders being clouded with brownish- 

 ochreous, beyond which are three outer transverse indistinct lunulated brownish- 

 ochreous fasciae. Forewing also with three brown basal dots within the cell. Hind- 

 wing also with a single similar dot and a short discocellular streak, and a discal 

 series of four small darker brown spots, the lowest of which is white-pupilled, and 

 the two inner smallest. Body beneath pale ochreous ; base of abdomen beneath with 

 a very prominent glandular patch of jet-black raised scales ; palpi, and legs pale 

 ochreous ; antennse reddish. 



Female. Upperside paler and of a more ochreous tint ; markings on both wings 

 the same, but somewhat narrower than in male, the inner line on the hindwing more 

 distinct and extending straight across from the costa to the anal angle. Underside

Habitat. — Sikkim ; Assam ; Cachar ; Khasia and Naga Hills ; Burma. 



Distribution. — " This is found in the mountains to the N"orth-East of Bengal, 

 extending southwai'd as far as Tenasserim. It is not uncommon in Sikkim; the 

 Indian Museum, Calcutta, has specimens from the Naga Hills. It was taken by 

 Capt. C. T. Biugham in the Lower Thoungyeen forests, Upper Tenasserim, in March 

 and April" (Butt. India, i. 301). "Mr. Otto Moller took it in the Runjit Valley, 

 Sikkim. It has the habit of a Discophora, flying off into the jungle when disturbed, 

 and resting on a leaf with closed wings " (Mr. de Nic6ville, J. A. S. Beng. 1883, 93). 

 According to Mr. H. J. Elwes (Trans. Ent. Soc. 1880, 332), it is " not uncommon in 

 Sikkim, at low elevations, from April to October." In the late "W. S. Atkinson's 

 collection were specimens from Darjeling and Cherra Punji. Of typical Euthjmius 

 numerous males and females from the Khasia Hills, taken by Rev. "NY. Hamilton's collec- 

 tors, are in Colonel C. Swinhoe's collection. It is recorded in Lieut. D. Thompson's 

 List of Chin-Lushai butterflies (Journ. Bombay, N. H. Soc. 1890, 295). Signor 

 Leonardo Fea obtained it in the Karen Hills, in iSTovember. Mr. W. Doherty took
