Rothscliild's collection. A female from Tounglioo, Burma, is in Mr. H. Grose-Smith's 

 collection. A female taken by Mr. A. 0. Hume at Malawoon, Burma, males from 

 Houngdraw Valley, Upper Tenasserim, taken in January by Capt. C. T. Bingham, 

 and a female froro Mergui, are in the British Museum Collection. Dr. J. Anderson 

 also obtained it in the Mergui Archipelago in the cold season. Col. C. H. E. 

 Adamson records specimens taken in Akyab, and Tenasserim (List, p. 20), of whicli 

 we have examined examples from Tavoy, taken in November. The late Mr. 

 A. R. H. Tucker took specimens at Andhiaza, north of Tavoy, nearly at sea-level, 

 in October, 1891. A male from Malacca, taken by Capt. S. Pinwill, is in the 

 British Museum. Mr. W. L. Distant records it from Province Wellesley, and Perak, 

 in the Malay Peninsula (I.e. pp. 152, 444). Col. Swinhoe also has it from Perak, 

 and Borneo. Mr. D. Cator possesses specimens taken at Saudakan, N. Borneo, in 

 October, which we have verified. 



Both sexes of this species may be distinguished from B, Omeroda, on the 

 upperside, by its more obscurely defined markings, and on the forewing, in both 

 the upper and underside, by the lower spots of the inner discal series being 

 dentate in form, and on the hindwing by the submarginal row of blackish lunules.

Imago. — Male. Upperside dark olivescent blackish-brown, with blacker inter- 

 vening bordering patches between the veins ; markings obscurely defined and of a 

 sullied pale olivescent yellowish-ochreous ; cilia slightly alternated with white. 

 Forewing with a narrow elongated discoidal streak which is indented anteriorly

 versely narrow and ovate, the medial portion being linear; beyond is a submarginal 

 very narrow lunular band, and a less-defined slender marginal line. Hindwing 

 crossed by a narrow inner-discal band and a similar outer-discal recurved band, 

 followed by a less-defined slender submarginal line. Costal border glossy violet- 

 grey, extending medially to below the first subcostal veinlet and enclosing an oval 

 pale ochreous-yellow patch of unglossed scales between base of costal vein and first 

 subcostal. Undei-side dark purplish chestnut-red ; discoidal streak and transverse 

 bands, and lines, as above, but broader, and glossy purplish-white, or, in certain
