21. *Euplcka (Andasena) orope, Boisduval. 



Kirby. Butler as a var. with a query, from Sumatra. Originally 

 described from Ta'ili, recorded from Timor by Butler. Very doubtfully 

 Sumatran. 



25. *Eupl<ea (Betanga) scherzeri, Felder. 



Kirby. Originally described from Ceylon. Entirely unknown to us, 



26. Euplcea (Penoa) menetriesii, Felder. 



Grose Smith. Hagen. Distant. Not very common. Found in the 

 plains and also on the outer hills as high as Bekautschan. The female is 

 much rarer than the male, and often shews a white spot in the discoidal 

 cell of the fore wing on the upper side. It has in the male a much 

 smaller " male-mark " than E. pinwillii, Butler. 



27. Euplcea ( Teuoa) pinwillh, Butler. 



Hagen as ■pimvilli, Godardt [sic]. Staudinger. Is very common 

 everywhere at low elevations, and especially frequents the above-men- 

 tioned Heliotrope-like flowers. The female is of course much rarer than 

 the male, and possesses a violet gloss to both wings on the upperside, 

 which the female of E. mendtrieaii, Felder, never has. It has in the 

 male a much larger " male-mark " than in E. mene'triesii. 



28. *Eupl(ea (Crastia) core, Cramer. 



A single female recorded from Sumatra by Snellen, the specimen 

 being probably some species of Tronga. E. core is practically confined to 

 the continent of India.

 fig. 6, male. 



Moore. Hagen as distanti [sic]. Distant as distanti [sic]. Ori- 

 ginally described from Sumatra. Never found at the higher elevations 

 in the hills, and is more plentiful near the sea ; especially so in both sexes 

 on both sides of the Wampoe River near the village of Stabat. It is the 

 commonest of the brown Euploeas in our area. Both sexes exhibit very 

 manj variations in the shade of the brown colour of both wings. The 

 male has Bometimes absolutely no M male-mark " as should be exhibited 

 according to Mr. Moore's definition of his group A; there is sometimes
