58. Neptis haeita. 



N. harita, Moore, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1874, p. 571, pi. Ixvi, fig. 8. 



Three males taken in forests around Silcuri between 13tli July and 

 2nd August. It is decidedly a rare species. Mr. Distant considers 

 N. harita to be a variety of N. vikasi (Rhop. Malay., p. 444, n. 5a, 

 pi. xliii, fig. 8, 1886), and so it may be, but, as it is readily distin- 

 guishable, so far as the specimens before us are concerned, we have 

 thought it best to keep it separate from that species. 



59. Neptis varmona. 



iV. varmontty Moore, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1872, p. 561. 



Eighteen males and seven females in forests around Silchar between 

 3rd April and 14th July, and two males, Dooloo, on 25th August. It 

 is probable that some of the specimens included under this name are 

 really nearer to the next species, for it is by no means easy to draw the 

 line between the two. 



60. Neptis kamarupa. 



N. hamarupa, Moore, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1874, p. 570. 



Four males, Silchar, from 3rd to 7th April. There is but little 

 doubt that N. kamarupa is the cold and dry season form of JV. varmona^ 

 and that many other seasonal forms of the latter widespread, common, 

 and variable species have been described as distinct. 



61. Neptis soma. 



N. soma, Moore, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1858, p. 9, n. 17, pi. xlix, fig. 6. 



One male on 11th, and one female on 20th July, in forests near 

 Silcuri. 



62. NfiPTIS SUSRUTA. 



N. susruta, Moore, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1872, p. 563, pi. xxxii, fig. 4. 



Five males between 6th April and 28th July, and six females 

 between 3rd April and 4th July, in forests around Silchar. 



63. Neptis ophiana. 



N. ophiana, Moore, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1872, p. 561. 



One male taken near Silchar on 7th April. 



64. Neptis jumbah. 



N. jwnhah, Moore, Horsfield and Moore, Cat. Lep. Mus. E. I. C, vol. i, p. 167, 

 n. 345, pi. iva, fig. 5 (1857). 



Two males, Silcuri, on 20th June and 2nd July.
