 Tenasserim ; extending to the Malay Peninsula. 



The next form so closely resembles neophron as to be easily 

 confounded with it. It is found over the same ground, but has so 

 far been recorded from a more restricted area.

6 2 • Closely resembles A. neophron, but is smaller in both 

 sexes and differs as follows : — Upperside : fore wing, discal white 

 band comparatively broader and shorter, not extendiug to vein 1, 

 of more even width, not so conspicuously narrowed posteriorly ; 

 postdiscal white fascia more clearly defined and ending anteriorly 

 in a prominent subcostal white spot. Hind wing differs in the 

 subterminal broken white lines being bordered inwardly in inter- 

 spaces 1 to 3 by much darker brown spots than in A. neophron ; 

 the conspicuous oval black spots near apices of interspaces 5 and 6 

 much as in A. neophron, but the outer of the two subterminal 

 short lines beyond them ochraceous, not white : tail at apex of 

 vein 4 as in A. neophron, but proportionately shorter. Underside 

 as in A. neophron, but the postdiscal fascia on the fore wing com- 

 paratively broader and more clearly defined ; the postdiscal area 

 broadly lilacine.
