There are two males and two females in the Sarawak Mu- 
seum which are rather heavily marked with dark fuscous. In 
the males this fuscous margin extends over the apical two- 
thirds of the fore-wing leavi ing only a small spot of tawny- 
yellow ground-colour at end of cell besides the basal third of 
the fore- wing. ‘The females agree well with Distant’s figure 
in Rhopalocera Malayana; but are more heavily marked than 
the female figured by de Nicéville. 
The only point to remark is that Bingham says :—“ speci- 
mens from Malacca and south and east through the sub-region 
have a decreasing amount of black colouring on the uppe erside. 
Australian specimens have the least of all.” The Sarawak 
examples however in this peculiarity are darker than the In- 
dian forms. 
The four Sarawak specimens bear no notes as to crepuscular 
habits. One is noted as being caught * fluttering in the grass ” 
on the summit of Mt. Matang. 
[The wings of a 6 of’ this species were found lying on the 
jungle-floor “at Trusan, thev had evidently been newly dis- 
membered by some bird or reptiles.
