angle orange : in H. ismene tlie anal angle of the wing is broadly orange, 

 as are also the last three segments of the abdomen on the upperside. 

 It is also allied even more closely to Pirdana hyela^ Hewitson (Distant, 

 Rhop. Malay., p. 376, n. i, pi. xxxv, fig. 6, female (1886), which in 

 the extent of the yellow area at the anal angle is about intermediate 

 between it and P. ismene^ and agrees with it in having the body dark 

 brown, not yellow, above. It is also more distantly allied to C. henja- 

 minii, Guerin. 



A single male from Tavoy. 



In Colonel Lang's collection is a very old specimen from Sikkini 

 without head or abdomen which we believe to be the female of this spe- 

 cies. On the upperside of both wings it is obscurely glossed with green 

 on the basal two-thirds, the forewing is rather broader, the outer margin 

 slightly convex, which in the male is slightly concave ; and on the 

 hindwing the orange colouring at the anal angle is rather broader (not 

 nearly so broad as in P. ismene or P. Jiyela), and the cilia are throughout 

 orange. Underside paler than in the male, the ground-colour obscure 

 green rather than brown, the orange colouration at anal angle of hind- 

 wing as on upperside, but rather broader.

 Two males from Tavoy.

T. alica, Moore, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1877, p. 593, pi. Iviii, fig. 11, male. 

 Several specimens from Tavoy agreeing with typical specimens of 

 this species from the Andamans. They differ from T. meetana in having 

 the upperside of the hindwing broadly white, not slightly white-speckled 

 between the veins, as in that species, and the cilia white throughout in- 

 stead of being tipped with dark brown. 



153. Tagiades ravi.

 Two males and one female from Tavoy agreeing exactly with 

 specimens from Bengal and the Andamans.

 specimens.
