and the form perseus, in the dry weather. In the same way^ M. mineus 

 and M. visala must be united under the former name, the ocellated form 

 (M. mineus) occurring in the rains, and the non-ocellated pointed- winged 

 form (M. visala)^ in the dry season. 



286. Lethe scanda, Moore. 



Mr. Otto Moller took a single female specimen in perfect condi- 

 tion in Birch Hill Park, Darjiling, at 6,800 feet elevation. This sex 

 has been twice separately described, by Mr. Moore as Behis nada, and 

 by Mr. Druce as Zophoessa dirphia. 



287. Orinoma damaris, Gray. 



I took a single female specimen at 3,200 feet elevation. It difEers 

 from the male only in the wings being slightly broader, and the apex 

 ^-nd outer margin of the forewing more rounded. 



Subfamily Morphine. 



288. Stichophtlialma camadeva, Westwood. 



I saw a single specimen of this splendid species. It is common in 

 Sikkim in June and July. 



Subfamily Ntmphalin^. 



SymhrentJiia liippocla^ Cramer. 



In the Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond. 1874, p. 570, Mr. Moore has described 

 a species of Symhrenthia from Masuri under the name of S. daruha. I 

 took a female specimen of a Symhrentliia on this occasion which I 

 consider to be merely a casual variety or * sport ' of 8. hijjpocla. It 

 agrees with Mr. Moore's description of 8. daruka, but has hardly 

 any of the black ground-colour left, this varietal character being carried 

 to even a greater extreme in it than in the specimen he described. 



289. Ergolis indica, Moore. 



A single male. This species is very doubtfully distinct from E. 

 ariadne, Linnseus, which Mr. Moore has lately restricted to the island of 

 Java. 



290. Limenitis danava, Moore. 



A single female taken at Singla, 1,000 feet elevation. 



291. Ajpatura sordida, Moore. 



One male taken in the Runjit Valley. 



292. Helcyra hemina, Hewitson. 

 One female of this rare species. 



Family LEMONIIDJE. 



Subfamily Libtth^inji. 



293. Libythea myrrha, Godart. 



I took a single male in the bed of a hill stream.
