A LIST OF THE BUTTERFLIES OF BORNEO, 
Mt. Kina Balu (Waterstradt); Labuan (Low and Mus. 
Staudinger) ; Busau, Kuching, Mt. Matang—38,200 ft. and Mt. 
Santubong—2,800 ft. (Sar. Mus.). 
Distribution: Mergui, Philippines, Java, Sumatra, Billiton, 
Penang and Singapore. 
Frequents the higher slopes (including the summits) of Mts. 
Matang and Santubong in Sarawak. Flies with great rapidity. 
Sarawak males show a certain amount of variation in the extent 
of the iridescent blue, which is much reduced in some ex- 
amples. Bethune-Baker writes that the female has three dis- 
tinct tails, while the male has but two. ‘he three Sarawak 
females before me are exactly similar to the male in this respect, 
having two tails and one short tooth-like projection from the 
second median nervule. 
Injuries. (1) 6, small symmetrical bite removing the anal 
angle of both hind-wings. (11) @, large quadrate symme- 
trical bite removing anal portion of both hind-wings.

Mt. Kina Balu (Waterstradt) ; Mt. Santubong—?2,800 ft., 
Mt. Matang—3,200 ft., Kuching and Satap (Sar. Mus.). 
Distribution: Malacca, Perak and Sumatra. 
Frequently taken on the summits of Mts. Santubong and 
Matang, and occasionally on the lower ground in those neigh- 
bourhoods. All the females in the Sarawak Museum have very 
narrow black hind-marginal borders on the upperside, differing 
thus from Distant’s figure which shows quite a broad border. 
Druce noticed the same difference In comparing some females 
from Kina Balu. 
Injury. 2, one large jagged triangular bite, removing anal 
portion of left fore-wing and apical regions of both hind-wings ; 
the piece removed from the right hind-wing is equal in area 
and shape to the sum of the two pieces removed from the left 
wings, thus indicating that the attack was made when the 
insect was at rest with wings imperfectly closed.
