Mabille ( = subfasciatus, Moore, and ulunda, Plotz), occurs in South 

 India, Burma, the Malay Peninsula, Java, Borneo, the Sulu Isles, 

 and the Philippine Isles. In Sumatra it is common on the outer 

 hills and plentiful near Namoe Oekor throughout the year. 



645. Koeuthaialos xanites, Butler. 



Grose Smith. I sent a long suite of specimens of this genus allied 

 to K. xanites to Captain Watson, who pronounces that amongst them 

 are several undescribed species from Sumatra, to be discriminated by 

 the length of the palpi and the greater or less prominence of the 

 orange mailings on both sides of the fore wing. As this latter feature is 

 apparently extremely variable I hesitate to describe any of these 

 supposed new species, as before doing so I think that critical examina- 

 tion of the prehensores of the males of all the species of the genus 

 should be made. 



640. KORUTHAIALOS VERONES, Hewitson. 



Asticloptcrus verones, Hewitson, Ann. and Mag. of Nat. Hist., fifth series, vol. i, 

 p. 341 (1878). 



Hewitson. Grose Smith. Originally described from Sumatra 

 thus : — " Both sides rufous-brown. Underside of the anterior wing 

 marked by a subapical rufous spot." This is one of the well-marked 

 forms of the genus, which I possess also from Java. It occurs in 

 Sumatra not uncommonly with K. xanites, Butler. 



617. Konui'HAiALOS kerala, de Niceville. 



K. kerala, de Nici'ville, Journ. Bomb. Nut. Hist. Soc, vol. x, p. , n. 33, pi. T, 

 fig. 48, male (1896). 



Somewhat rare, occurs in the mountains in May. 



6±8. Koruthaialos kophene, de Niceville. 



K. kophene, de Niceville, Journ. Bomb. Nat. Hist. Soc, vol. x, p. , n. 34, pi. T, 

 figs. 49, male ; 50, female (189G). 



A rarer species than the one last-named, we possess three or four 

 specimens only from Sumatra. All the species of the genus are inhabi- 

 tants of the forest, where they are chiefly found on grassy forest paths 

 and on low flowers. They occur more abundantly at higher elevations 

 south of Namoe Oekor. 



619. Suada swerga, de Niceville. 



8. swerga, de Niceville, Jonrn. Bomb. Nat. Hist. Soc, vol. ix, p. 372, n. 1 (1895). 

 This species has a wide range, occurring in Sikhim, Burma, the
