Hab. Mussooree ? {Kollar) ; Burma, extending into China. 

 In a collection purchased and sent to me from Mussooree there 

 is a single 6 of this form, but, notwithstanding that Kollar gives 

 it from Mussooree, I am doubtful of the locality. I procured a 

 single specimen at Bhamo in Upper Burma, where it was taken also 

 bv Col. C. H. E. Adamson.
