32. Cupha placida, Moore. 

 Flacourtia montana, Grab. (Bixineas). 



Heir H. Fruhstorfer in Berl. Ent. Zeitscli., vol. xliii, p. 198 (1898), 

 Las named this species C. erymanthis maja from Karwar in North 

 Kanara. 



33. Atella phalantha, Drury. 

 Flacourtia montana, Grah. (Bixineas). 



34. Atella alcippe, Cramer. 

 Alsodeict zeylanica, Thwaites (Violacese). 



In the second paper, p. 248, it is noted that the larva was found 

 " On a tree, which we believe to be a very local species of Hydnocarpus 

 [Bixinese, the Natural Order which next follows the Violacese], but this' 

 requires verification." This identification is incorrect, the food-plant 

 being Alsodeia zeylanica. 



35. Cethosia mahratta, Moore. 

 Modecca palmata, Lam. (Passiflorew) . 



3 r J. Cynthia saloma, de Niceville. 

 Modecca palmata, Lam. {Passiflorese). 



37. Apatura (Jiohana) CAMIBA, Moore. 

 Celtis tetrandra, Roxb. ( Urticacese). 



Dr. F. Moore in Lep. Ind., vol. iii, p. 3 (1896), gives the genus 

 Apatura (part), Fabricius, as a synonym of Potamis, Hiibner. He uses 

 Apatura for the species placed in this paper under Hypolimnas, Hiibner. 



38. Precis iphita, Cramer. 



S trobilanthes callosns, Nees (Acantliacete). 



Dr. F. Moore in Lep. Ind., vol. iv, p. 62 (1899) rotes that 

 this species is not a true Precis, the type of that genus being the 

 Papilio octavia of Cramer, an African species, which has the discoidal 

 cell of the fore wing closed, while Junonia (in which iphita is best 

 placed) has it open. Dr. Chr. Aurivillius in Kongl. Svens. Vet.- 

 Akad. Hand., vol. xxxi, n. 5, p. 131 (1898), gives Junonia as a synonym 

 of Precis, the latter being the older name. Dr. A. G. Butler in Ann. 

 and Mag. of Nat. Hist , seventh series, vol. iv, p. 373 (1899), notes that 

 " Prof. Aurivillius shows that Precis lias priority over Junonia ; there- 

 fore, although the latter is a far more satisfactory name for the genus 

 (became more descriptive), I suppose it will have to go."
