36 L. de Niceville — Butterflies of the subgenus Tronga. [No. 1, • 



11. Tronga brooket, Moore. 



T. hrookeiy Moore, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1883, p. 268, n. 8; idem, id., Lep. Ind., 

 Tol. i, p. 79 (1890) ; id., Frnhsfcorfer, Berl. Enfc. Zeitsch., vol. xliii, p. 188 (1898). 



Dr. Moore has kindly idejitified a male specimen of this species 

 for me from Sarawak, Borneo, Sad marked it " Same as type," though 

 it does not agree with the type, as in the forewing it has no marginal 

 series of spots, in the type they are said to be present but " very 

 minute." Mr. Fruhstorfer says that Tronga hrodkei is identical with 

 Menama lorzde, Moore. This is entirely incorrect, the genus Menama 

 has a sexual patch of androconia on the upperside of the hindwing not 

 found in Tronga^ hroohei is a Tronga^ and lorzde is a Menama. I consider 

 T. brookei to be a synonym of T, crameri, Lucas. Dr. Moore says it is 

 " Comparatively smaller and narrower winged than T. crameri ; of a 

 paler brown colour, and with a violet-blue tint." 



12. Tronga labuana, Moore. 



T. labuana, Moore, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1883, p. 268, n. 9 ; idem, id., Lep. 

 Ind., vol. i, p. 80 (1890); id., Fruhstorfer, BerL Ent. Zeitsch., vol. xliii, p. 189 

 (1898). 



Habitat: Labuan, Borneo (Moore). 



Dr. Moore has identified a male specimen of this species for me 

 from Sarawak, Borneo. Though marked " Same as type " it does not 

 agree exactly with the description of the type ; and it would be extra- 

 ordinary perhaps if it did, as in these Borneo Trongas I cannot find two 

 marked exactly alike. Mr. Fruhstorfer says that this species is a 

 synonym of T. crameri, Lucas, wherein I agree with him. 



13. Tronga daatensis, Moore. 



T. daatenais, Moore, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1883, p. 268, n. 10; idem, id., Lep. 

 Ind., vol. i, p. 80 (1890); id., Fruhstorfer, Berl. Ent. Zeitsch., vol. xliii, p. 189 

 (1898). 



Habitat : Island of Daat, Labuan, Borneo (Moore). 



Dr. Moore, not having access to the type of this species, was 

 unable to match it with any of the Bornean Trongas I sent to him. As, 

 however, from the description it only appears to differ from other 

 Borneo Trongas in some slight details of maculation I concur with 

 Mr, Fruhstorfer in considering it to be a synonym of T. crameri, Lucas. 



14. Tronga pryeri, Moore. 



T. pryeri, Moore, Proc. Zool. Soc, Lond., 1883, p. 269, n. 11 ; idem, id., Lep. 

 Ind., vol. i, p, 80 (1890) ; id., Fruhstorfer, Berl. Ent. Zeitsoh., rol. xliii, p. 189 (1898) ;
