1. Dr. G. B. Longstaff (Trans. Ent. Scc, Lond., 1905, p. 90 et id. 1908, 
p- 658) notes of this species in Calcutta, “‘ its wings are much plaited longitudi- 
nally, and when at rest its extremely long tails, crumpled look, and brown 
colour give it quite the appearance of a “dead leaf.” 
My experience of it in Sarawak is rather different. I first saw it beside 
a small sunny path at Lawas, and on and off for the next three weeks between 
the hours of 9 a.m. and midday I met with two or three (never more) individuals 
in this one spot—, but never elsewhere in collecting round the station at Lawas. 
I frequently noticed how conspicuous it was by reason of its short weak flight in 
the sunshine and its habit of settling on the upperside of leaves: its ochreous 
yellow underside rendering it thus conspicuous rather than the reverse, and the 
conspicuous lightness of its long tails at once destroyed any chance of a re- 
semblance to a dead leaf. The wings were folded erect, in no way ‘‘plaited’’; 
the tails together, not folded; in fact, the insect gave me the general idea 
of being a conspicuously coloured unpalatable insect, not a procryptically 
coloured palatable butterfly. Curiously enough Dr. Longstaff (/.c. 1908, p. 629) 
mentions an experiment with a closely allied species, Loxrura arcuata, which 
tends to support my suggestion. He gave some butterflies to two Mainas in 
Ceylon some of which the birds ate with evident relish, others they tasted and 
then showed signs of dislike. Of the Lorwrahe notes: ‘* The bird gave the 
Loxura a few pecks and then let it alone,’’ suggesting unpalatability.”’
