426 L. de Niceville & Dr. L. Margin — Butterflies of Sumatra. [No. 3, 



225. *Eothalia parta, Moore. 



Hagen. Originally described from Borneo. Unknown to us. 



226. Ecthalia? zichri, Butler. 



Originally described (but not figured) from Sarawak in Borneo. 

 Distant describes and figures it from Malacca, but neither figure or 

 description exactly agrees with Butler's description of the species. 

 Nor do our Sumatran specimens agree much better with the type or 

 the Malacca example. We have here to do either with one very 

 variable species, or several local races. A considerable series from 

 various localities ia required to settle the point. In Sumatra it is 

 exceedingly rare, Dr. Martin has obtained two or three specimens only 

 from the mountains. 



227. Euthalia anosia, Moore. 



Hagen. Everywhere rare throughout its considerable range of 

 habitat. Dr. Martin possesses a single specimen from Kampong Singha- 

 pura, south of Namoe Oekor, captured in April, 1891. Besides this 

 specimen Dr. Martin caught another himself at Ayer Panas, 18 miles 

 inland from the town of Malacca, and near the spot where Dr. A. R. 

 Wallace, F. R. S., captured the type of Prothoe calydonia, Hewitson, 

 and a third in April, 1895, at the lower end of the Jibi Kola, near 

 Darjiling, in the eastern Himalayas, all these specimens from widely 

 separated localities are precisely similar. 



228. Euthalia lubentina, Cramer. 



Hagen as lubentina, Horsfield and Moore [sic]. A rare species in 

 Sumatra as elsewhere. Occurs at higher elevations in Sumatra, at 

 Soengei Batoe and in the Gayoe mountains. Dr. Martin obtained one 

 pair at Kotta Lembaroe in Deli in 1888. 



229. Ecthalia adonia, Cramer. 



Vollenhoven. Hagen as adonia, Horsfield and Moore [sic]. Grose 

 Smith as adoma [sic]. Staudinger. Very rare, Dr. Martin has obtained 

 a single female. It seems to occur at the same elevations and localities 

 as E. garuda, Moore, and the larva probably feeds on the same tree 

 (mangoe). The specimen now in Dr. Martin's collection was caught 

 by himself on a small mangoe tree behind the Chinese merchant's house 

 near the Battak resthouse in Bindjei town. He saw a second in 

 June, 1894, also on a mangoe tree in the garden of the Loboe Dalam 

 hospital, but as he was on duty, he could not secure it. He has never 

 seen a male.
