278 KYMPHALID^E. 



A male labelled as from Taungoo and a stunted female labelled 

 as collected by Limborg in Tenasserim, in the British Museum 

 collection, belong, the former possibly, the latter certainly, to the 

 kesava form, but I think both localities are open to doubt. In 

 two fairly loag series which I have had an opportunity of examining 

 no true kesava 2 occurs further south than the hill-ranges in 

 Assam.
