1 88 CATALOGUE OF BURMESE BUTTERFLIES. 



244. Chilasa dissimilis, Linnaeus. 



Common throughout Burmah in suitable places. 



245. 0. CLYTiA, Linnaeus. 



A very common insect in Burmah, and very variable in the 

 amount of white markings on both the fore and hind-wing. 

 It occurs wherever the preceding species is found, and varies 

 much in size. 



Note. — Under these two names Dissitnilis and Clytia I have included 

 the several forms named by Moore as C. casyapa, C. onpape, C. janus, 

 and C. papone, as I am quite unable to separate these varieties. I have 

 separated the two forms C. dissimilis and C. clytia, because, while not 

 admitting their claim to rank as separate species, yet the names are of use 

 as indicating the two varieties which have been long and universally dis- 

 tinguished by these names. 



246. EUPLCEOPSIS DANISEPA, Butlcr. 



A single specimen of this rare butterfly was caught by me 

 on the Htarooay Stream, Arracan, in March, 1883. On the 

 wing I mistook it for Euplcea rhadamanthus. 



247. Cadugoides agestor, Gray. 



One specimen, caught on Taoo plateau, Upper Tenasserim, 

 in March. 



248. Metamopsis tavoyanus, Butler. 



My specimens have been so named by Mr. Moore. Those 

 from Upper Burmah approach M. slateri, which occurs in 

 Assam. Those from the south approach more closely M. 

 hewifsoni, Westwood, from Borneo. I think all three 

 may turn out to be local varieties of one species. At 

 any rate I consider that Tavoyanus is synonomous with 

 Slateri. I have taken this insect near Meple in Upper 

 Tenasserim in February, and also near Katha in Upper 

 Burmah. It mimics a Euploea, and varies in the light mark- 

 ings according to the Euploea which appears together with it, 

 the markings on the northern form resembling those on 

 Isafnia rogenhoferi, which is found in the north, while those on 

 the southern form resemble /. margarita, which occurs in the 

 same district.
