 Cilia of forewing cinereous, of hindwing white. Underside paler. Forewing with 

 the costal and apical portions paler than the rest of the wing, the spots as on the 

 upperside. Hindwing with a broad white streak right across it, its upperside even, 

 limited bv the upper margin of the cell and vein 7, its lower margin irregular, some 

 white streaks on the lower half of the wing varying much in extent in difierent 

 examples. Antennge black ; the shaft on the underside dotted with white, the basal

Habitat. — Burma, Malay Peninsula and Archipelago. 



DiSTRiBUTiox. — The types came from Tilin Yaw, Upper Burma, taken by Watson 

 in ]\Iarch, 1890 ; our descriptions and figures of the male are from an example in 

 the Hancock Museum, taken by Adamson at Pinyoung, on the Chindwin Eiver, in the 

 month of September, and of the female from an example from Burma in our collection ; 

 Elwes records it from the Karen Hills and the Shan States ; de Niceville from Bassein, 

 Henzada and Maulmein, all in Burma, and from Malacca, Singapore and the Philippines.

Forewing, vein 12 short, reaches costa some little distance before end of cell, cell 

 less than two-thirds the length of costa, upper discocellular minute but distinct, out- 

 wardly oblique, middle and lower discocellular slightly inwardly oblique, the lower 

 much the shorter, vein 5 consequently arises close to lower end of cell and curves 

 upwards to get into position between veins 4 and 6, vein 3 from near lower end of cell, 

 curving upwards somewhat at its base, 2 from about one-third before the end ; costa
