Distribution. — Doherty's types came fromWagung, Tavoy district (1,500 feet); 

 we have not been able to discover where they now are ; de Niceville's type came from 

 Java, and it is in the Druce collection, also from Sumatra, all males ; we have not seen 

 a female, therefore give Doherty's description and figure.
