Habitat. — Burma, Assam, Sumatra, Nias, Philippines.

 nov,' in the B. M. ; de Niceville records it from Assam, Burma and Sumatra ; it is in 

 our collection also from Nias. 



Note. — de Niceville misidentified /. pura, Moore, in Butt, of India, iii. p. 170 

 (1890), and in his frontispiece figure No. 132 ^, he described and figured Butler's 

 species coriferenda, and Bingham unfortunately followed his example in Fauna of Brit. 

 Ind. Butt. ii. p. 143 (1907), but de Niceville discovered his mistake, and recorded jow/'a 

 properly as a synonym to cleodus in Journ. Bo. Nat. Hist. Soc. 1895, p. 40, and 

 records the proper localities in p. 38.
