curved transverse white line in interspaces 1 a and 1, a small 

 white spot in interspace 2, a larger white spot in interspace 3, a 

 short white transverse band from costa to base of interspace 4, 

 and a preapical white dot ; terminal black area on the hind wing 

 traversed by a broad uneven white band and an outer subterminal 

 slender line. Underside very similar to that in B. deodata, the 

 chestnut-red band very much narrower and paler. Antennae, 

 head, thorax and abdomen as in B. deodata. 



Exp. <$ 45 mm. (T78").

S 2 • Closely resembles B. deodata, and still more closely 

 B. binghami. Upperside black, much more restricted on the fore 

 wiDg, confined to a broad posteriorly narrowing terminal edging, 

 connected along the costa to a postdiscal broad Y-shaped black 

 mark extending from costa to vein 2, its lower portion faintly 

 fuliginous in <5 , somewhat blacker in the 2 ; the basal fuliginous 

 transverse bands narrow and very faintly marked ; on the hind wing 

 the black colour forms irregular postdiscal and terminal transverse 

 bands with a very broad intervening band of white. Underside : 

 ground-colour white, markings as on the upperside but more 

 clearly defined and chestnut-brown in colour ; the markings on 

 the lobe and tornal area similar to but smaller than those in 

 B. deodata. Antennae, head, thorax and abdomen as in B. deodata. 



Exp. 6 2 46-51 mm. (1-8-2"). 



Hab. Eecorded only, so far, from the hills north of Taungoo in 

 Lower Burma.

S 2 • ^ ore wing broadly triangular ; costa slightly arched ; apex 

 obtuse ; termen more or less convex ; tornus somewhat rounded ; 

 dorsum straight ; cell short, not half length of wing, slenderly 

 closed ; veins 6 and 7 closely approximate from upper apex of 

 cell, upper discocellular therefore obsolete, middle and lower 

 subequal, concave ; vein 3 from before lower apex of cell, 4 from 

 apex, 10 and 11 free. Hind wing variable in shape, angulate, 

 broadly produced or narrowly tailed at apex of vein 4 ; in the 

 latter two cases the portion of the termen just above vein 4 

 concave or emarginate ; costa very slightly arched, nearly straight ; 

 apex broadly rounded ; termen slightly scalloped ; tornus rounded ; 

 dorsum nearly straight ; cell short, slenderly closed ; vein 3 from
