46 LEPIDOPTERA INBICA. 



We verified specimens of this biitterflj' in the collection made by Di". J. Anderson, 

 during the Expedition to Yunan in 1868 — as noted in his " Zool. Researches" 

 above cited. It is also entered by the late W. S. Atkinson in his MS. Notes, 1869, 

 as having been " taken by Dr. Anderson at Bhamo, on the Yunan frontier." We 

 also subsequently examined and verified a specimen labelled " Bhamo," in Mr. 

 Atkinson's collection, whilst the latter was in my charge at the India Museum, 

 London — from whence it passed into the possession of Mr. Hewitson — and, in 

 my MS. Catalooue of this collection this species is entered, from its label, as having 

 been taken at " Bhamo, Feb. 28th," during the Yunan Expedition. 



This Bhamo specimen was evidently not retained by Mr. Hewitson, as it is not 

 in his Cabinet at the British Museum. It may be here stated, that the residue of 

 the Atkinson collection was transferred, by Mr. Hewitson, to Dr. Staudinger.
