As Mr, Moore observes, N. Jmrita is closely allied to N.mkast, "but may be distinguished 

 from it by its smaller size, less distinct markings, and in the sub marginal band of the bind 

 wing being formed of distinct lunules/ 1 The last character is the only reliable one I can find, 

 and I therefore prefer to look upon it as a varietal form only. The figure here given of 

 N. viha$t has already [antea, p. 152) been reported as unsatisfactory, 



14. Neptis anjana, var. (Tab. XXXVI., fig. 11.) 

 ffoptk Anjatui, Moore, Trans. Ent. Soc. 1B81, p. 800. 



The following is the original description of this species : — 



" 3 . Upper side very dark olivaceous-brown ; fore wing with a Blender, but not very prominent, 

 ochreoua-brown narrow discoidal streak, a curved diBcal macular band, a flubmarginal and a leas distinct 

 marginal line ; hind wing with a slender transverse subbasal band, a recurved discal band, and narrower 

 but leas distinct marginal lino. Underside dark chestnut-red ; fore wing with the diacoidal streak, 

 transverse outer bands glossy purplish blue, the lower part of the discal hand being pale ochreous ; bind 

 wing with two medial, two diseai bands, a very slender marginal glossy purplish blue and a broad paler 

 basal baud."

 Ujong (D urn ford — colL Dist.). 



A specimen received from Sungea Ujong is here figured, I have carefully compared 

 this specimen with Mr. Moore's Moulmein type, and find slight differences in the following 

 particulars: — it is darker, tlie discal bands beneath are slightly wider apart, and the 

 subniarginal fascia is somewhat less lunular; but all these differences are not constant, as a 

 Perak specimen in the collec tion of Herr Rib be is much lighter in hue. 



N. anjana is here arranged after A T , vilca&L 



Genus ATHYMA (atttea, p. 156). 

 6* A thy ma kresna (aiUea t p. 161). 



Since describing the female as differing in "no essential respects from the male," the 

 only distinguishing character being that in the female the cellular streak of the anterior wings 

 is apparently never broken, Mr. Moore has pointed out to me that this female represents his 

 4, teamen,* and he considers the true female t<» bo a yellow and brown form, much like the 

 corresponding sex of A. m/U t or again it may be his A* sabrata (antoa, p. 164), of which also 

 female specimens are alone known* Breeding must decide this point, and my own opinion 

 leans to the supposition that all these three distinctly marked females belong to A. kresna, and 

 are trimorphic varieties of that species.

 4. Hypolimnas anomala (an(m t p, 160). (Tab. XLL, f. 1, 2<T: 3, 4 ? ,) 



Since giving the description of the above species I have received a fair series of specimens, 

 and am now able to give figures of both sexes. It is, like most of the other members of the 

 ^cnus, a very variable species.
