were both taken at Cliangyang in Juue, and agree very well with Sikkiiii 
examples. 
De "Niceville (Jourii. Asiat. Soc. Beug. liv. p. 53, Iv. p. 384) records it as 
common iu all seasons in the neighbourhood of Calcutta and plentiful in 
Cachar. Elwes (Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond. 1888, p. 450) states that in Sikkini 
it occurs at elevations up to 5U0U feet from April to December, but is not 
common. 
I met witli an allied species, T. augias, Linnaeus, at Foochau in April ; 
but, so far as I know, it has not been taken within the region here dealt with.

base of wing than to end of cell. Hind wing : vein 7 well before the end of cell ; disco- 
cellulars faint ; vein 5 not traceable ; vein 3 immediately before the end of cell, many times 
farther from 2 than from 4 ; vein 2 considerably nearer to end of cell than to base of wing. 
Hind tibiie with a long fringe and with two pairs of spurs. Male with a linear discal stigma 
on fore wing extending from origin of vein 3 to as far as vein 1."' ( Watson, I. c.)

" Expands from 1-20 to 1-40 in. The male is fulvous ; the hind margins of the fore wings and 
all the marginal portions of the hind wings brownish fuscous. The fore wings have the discal 
black line very distinct. Underside : hind wings yellowish, with some very indistinct central 
markings ; the inner margin tinged with fulvous. The female is somewhat larger than the 
male; the wings are brownish. Fore wings without the sub-discoidal black streak, with a 
suhmarginal row of lai-ge fulvous spots ; the basal portion is fulvou? towards the costa. 
Hind wings with a row of fulvous spots forming a band. The aiiteunie have clubs hooked 
at the extremities.
