narrow black line "within base of the cell, a double wavy line across the middle of 

 the cell, and extending below it at the base of the lower median veinlet, a similar 

 double line across end of the cell ; followed by a transverse discal diffused black 

 waved lunular line, and beyond by a less-distinct submarginal similar line. Hind- 

 wing with a black double line at end of the cell, followed by a black diffused discal 

 line, and a similar submarginal line ; the abdominal margin paler greyish-brown. 

 Underside. Both wings pale dull ochreous, somewhat brighter externally. Forewing 

 with the markings in the cell as on upperside, the discal and submarginal line 

 being less distinct. Eindwing with similar but less-distinct markings as on the 

 upperside, and also with a slender black sinuous inner- discal line, extending from 

 the costal to the median vein. Body bronzy-brown above, beneath, palpi, and legs

Female. Unknown. 



Expanse, (S 2^q inches. 



Habitat. — Burma ; Upper Tenasserim ; Malay Peninsula ; Borneo. 



Distribution. — A single male, taken at Myitta, Burma, in February, is in the 

 Phayre Museum, Rangoon, and a male, from the Donat Range, Tenasserim, taken 

 by Capt. C. T. Bingham, is in Mr. de Niceville's collection. We have compared the 

 type of Elicius, kindly lent by Mr. de Niceville, with that of Kanda, in the Hewit- 

 sonian Collection, which latter was taken by Mr. A. R. Wallace in Borneo. A male, 

 identical with both the above, from Perak, Malay Peninsula, is in Mr. Walter
