 Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond., 1879, p. 2. 



Five males, Silcuri, Irangmara, and Doarband, 8th May to 28th 

 July. Our specimens agree except in size (being as large as Butler's 

 smallest specimen of P. douhledayi) with the P. cacharensis of Butler, 

 which is described from "near Assam," the country given by "Wallace as 

 one of the habitats of his species. Our series of specimens from Burma 

 (Maulmein), the other habitat given by Wallace for his species, present 

 great variation in the size of the white spots in the hindwing, the chief 

 character on which Mr. Butler appears to have relied in separating his 

 species. 



Mr. Wood-Mason notes that this species has a "musk-scented 

 body."
