440 L. de Niceville & Dr. L. Martin — Butterflies of Sumatra. [No. 3, 

 Subfamily Nemeobiin,e. 



270. Zemeros albipunctata, Butler. 

 Hagen as flegyas. Staudinger. Distant. 



271. Zemeros emesoides, Felder. 



Hevvitson. Grose Smith as Temeros [sic] emesoides. Both species 

 of Zemeros are found chiefly in forests on the flowers or red fruits of 

 some shrub of medium height, on which they feed. They rest with half 

 open wings. Both species are very delicate, and it is almost impossible 

 to obtain a perfect example of either for the cabinet. Z. albipunctata, 

 Butler, is much the commoner, and is spread over the whole of our area; 

 whereas Z. emesoides is much rarer, does not occur near the sea, and is 

 found from Selesseh to Bekantschan. 



272. Stiboges nymphidia, Butler. 



Hagen. Found only on the Central Plateau, and is rare even there, 

 as in all Dr. Martin has only obtained six specimens in thirteen years. 



273. Taxila thuisto, Hewitson. 



Hewitson. Hagen. Grose Smith. Distant. Rare in Deli, occurs 

 in forests only from Selesseh to Bekantschan. 



274. Taxila haquinds, Fabricius. 



Hagen. Staudinger. Hewitson as drupadi. The " Emesis ,J dru- 

 padi of Horsfield, described from Java, is a synonym of this species. 

 Very common in the forests of the plains, abounded in April and May, 

 1894, near Selesseh. Both the species of Taxila are fond of the same 

 shrub frequented by the two species of Zemeros. 



275. Laxita damajanti, Felder. 



Snellen. Staudinger as tanita. For remarks on L. tanita, Hewit- 

 son, see de Niceville, Journ. A. S. B., vol. lxiii, pt. 2, p. 22 (1894). It 

 appears that Staudinger's tanita = damajanti. 



276. Laxita lyclene, de Niceville. 



L. lyclene, de Niceville, Journ. A. S. B., vol. lxiii, pt. 2, p. 21, n. 17, pi. ii, fig. 10, 

 male (1S94). 



Hewitson as telesia. Hagen as telesia. Grose Smith as telesia. 

 Staudinger as telesia. Kirby as telesia. Distant as telesia. This is a 

 local race of T. telesia, Hewitson, from Borneo.
