DiSTRiBDTioN. — Col. C. H. E. Adamson has a female taken in the upper Atarau 

 Valley in October, and records " three females caught on the Salween River, above 

 Moulmein, in July and August, and one at Natchoung, Upper Tenasserim, in 

 October " (List, 1897, 28). A male and female, labelled " Naga Hills," and a male 

 from Moulmein are in Mr. P. Crowley's collection. " A single male is recoi-ded, from 

 Tavoy, which has the silvery spot of the submarginal series in the subcostal inter- 

 space on the underside of the forowing, showing through on the upperside " (J. A. S.

 Kisseraing Island in January " (J. Linn. Soc. Zool. 1836, 38). A male from the 

 Ataran Valley, Tenasserim, taken in January by Col. C. T. Bingham, one from 

 Donat Range taken in November, and both sexes from the Karen Hills taken in 

 December, are in the British Museum.
