obtained specimens at Clientaboon, a mountainous and thickly wooded district 200 

 miles from Bangkok on the east coast of the Griilf of Siam. Mr. Distant (Rhop. 

 Malay. 34) records it from Singapore, on the authority of a specimen so labelled in 

 the collection of Messrs. Godman and Salvin. Mr. Butler (P. Z. S. 1866, 275) 

 records it from the Philippines, but this locality is probably erroneous, as this species 

 is not enumerated in Semper's recently published " Reisen Archipel. Philippen."

Crastia Laijavdi, ]\Ioore, Proc. Zool. Soc. Loud. 1883, 279. 



Crastia Binghami, Moore, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond. Is83, p. 278, $ ?. 



Imago. — Nearest allied to G. Goclartii. Upperside differs in its darker colour 

 throughout, with violet-brown reflections, and in the entire absence of the violet- 

 grey apical patch. Male. Forpwing with similarly disposed but comparatively 

 smaller submarginal and marginal row of spots, and a shorter, narrower streak 

 between the median and submedian veins. Hindwing with similar submarginal and 

 marginal spots as in G. Godartii. Female. Forewing with submarginal and marginal 

 spots as in the male, and with minute costal and sometimes cell and discal spots as 

 in G. Godartii. Hindwing with submarginal and marginal spots as in the male. 



Expanse, c? ¥ 3i to 3f inches. 



Habitat. — Siam (Layard) ; Burma. 



Having recently been able to compare the typical specimens of both sexes of C', 

 Layardi, from Siam, now in the collection of Messrs. Grodman and Salvin, with those 

 of the types of G. Binghami, I have assured myself of their identity. 



This species has very much the appearance of the Ceylonese G. Asela, but it 

 may be easily distinguished from the latter by the less triangular forewing of the 

 male, this wing having a decided rounded posterior margin. 



Distribution. — The Siamese specimens were taken at Chentaboon by Mr. E. L. 

 Layard. The Burmese examples were taken by Capt. Bingham in the Thoungyeen 

 forests in Upper Tenasserim, and by Capt. C. H. E. Adamson at Akyab in Arakan.
