BUTTERFLIES OF BORNEO. 119 



There are specimens in the Sarawak Museum agree- 

 ing well with Vollenh oven's description and with Dis- 

 tant's figure (Rhop. Malay, pi. XLIII fig. 3,). The 

 female is very like the female of E. merta Moore as 

 figured by Distant (I.e. pi. XLIII. fig. 2). 



185. Euthalia (Nora) tanagrq, Staud. 



F elder ia tanagra, Staudinger, Iris. 1889, p. 76. 



Butler (I.e. p. 365) records this species from Borneo 

 as well as from Palawan. 



Sub-genus Sonepisa'. 



186. Euthalia (Sonepisa) Kanda y Moore. 



Adolias Kanda, Moore, Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond. 1859, p. 

 69, pi. 4 r fig. 5. 



From Burma, Tenasserim, Malay Peninsula, Borneo, 

 Sumatra. 



Sub-genus Euthalia. 



187. Euthalia (Euthalia) adonia] Or. 



Papilio adonia, Cramer, Pap. Exot. Ill, pi. 255, figs, 

 0. D., (1779). 



Sub-sp. E. adonia ivhiteheadi, Grose Smith. 



Fruhstorfer considers ivhiteheadi to be a sub-species 

 of E. lubentina, Cr. but this is incorrect. Grose Smith 

 associated with his male type the female of another 

 species of this group of Euthalia, a species subsequently 

 described by Fruhstorfer as E. adonia montana. 



The females of these two species have been confused 

 with each other, which after all is not surprising both 

 species occupying the same area viz., Mt. Kina Balu 

 and other mountains in Borneo ; ivhiteheadi is however 

 also found, though rarely, in the low-country and the 

 Sarawak Museum collection contains a male and female
