dhyana Fruhst. is an uncommonly small form, lighter than specimens from Sikkim, with reduced cellular spots; dhyana. 
beneath still lighter than eacus\ Indo-China. — sumatrana Fruhst. is darker red-brown than fatih( 163 f), thehya- sumatrana. 
line spots on the fore wing are dark yellow instead of white, hindwing beneath with lighter red-brown bands; West 
Sumatra. — lombokiana Fruhst., from Lombok, is somewhat darker than eacus (163 g), the hyaline spots ar e lombokiana 
lighter and almost twice as broad. The spots of the dark bands of the hindwing are more distinctly defined. — 
su mb aw an a Fruhst. is again more closely allied to dhyana, but the hyaline spots are still smaller, the ground- sumbawa- 
colour is lighter than in eacus and lombokiana ; Sumbawa. — celebica Fruhst., finally, from the Peak of Bonthain, . na 
is beneath almost black; also above the hindwing exhibits the darkest arcuate bands. — dan is not rare, but 
single; the larva is green with lighter sides and often a yellowish lateral stripe and a black shiny cordiformly 
indented head; on Djarung (Achyrantes aspra). Pupa of a dull pale green, with brownish markings and white 
wing-cases; it often yields the imago already after a week. The imagines fly near the roadside and open spaces 
in the woods, and like to rest underneath leaves with their wings flatly spread out. 
C. laxmi Nic. (= atilia Mab.) is difficult to separate from daw, on the whole smaller, greyer, hindwing laxmi. 
in the centre of the margin somewhat convex and its anal portion distinctly produced. The dark spots on 
the hindwing above are more fused into an arcuate nebulous band, but beneath distinctly separated. In the 
Philippines and Palawan (— palawana Stgr.), but also in similar forms reported from various places of the 
Malay district, unless they were mistaken for forms of dan. 
C. buchanani Nic. (168 c) is similar to laxmi, but larger, the shape of the hindwing more like that of buchanani. 
agni; the spots on the fore wing are more than double the size of those in laxmi, united into a coherent band; 
the 2 dark oblicpie spots near the base of the submedian area are absent in this species. Upper Burmah. 
C. sobrina Elw. (163 g) is also allied to dan, above almost exactly the same, but still larger; beneath, sobrina. 
however, the hindwing exhibits instead of light reddish brown bands on a darker ground separate-blackish 
spots as in laxmi ; but from the latter species sobrina is at once discernible by the uniformly rounded margin 
of the hindwing. Sumatra; type in the Tring Museum. 
C. agnioides Elw. (163 g) is smaller than sobrina, the forewing shows smaller vitreous spots which arjnioidcs. 
are arranged more in a discal oblicpie band. Hindwing above in the disc lighter, the dark spots are scarcer and 
smaller, beneath partly situate in a light halo. Naga Hills, discovered by Doherty. 
C. agni Nic. differs from agnioides almost only in the shape of the $ genitals, the dorsum of the tegumen agni. 
being here plain, but in agnioides provided with a large comb. Moreover, the colouring of the wings above and 
particularly of the fringe beneath behind the cells 6 and 7 of the hindwing is dark umber-brown in agnioides. 
agni flies from Sikkim to Borneo, but probably only dispersed. 
C. igna Smpr. (163 g). Here the vitreous spots of the hindwing vary in size and shape (even in number!), igna. 
but the hindwing invariably shows above and beneath a distinct antemarginal row of punctiform spots. Philip¬ 
pines. 
C. semperi Elw. (163 g). Hindwing above crossed by an irregularly broken antemarginal nebulous semperi. 
band which, however, is farther removed from the margin than the row of dots in igna. Beneath the dark spots 
of the hindwing neither form a uniformly bent curve as in igna, but are arranged in an irregular, frequently 
interrupted row. According to Edwards, it differs also anatomically from igna ; but judging from the specimens 
in Semper’s collection, the differences stated by Semper himself do not stand the test. Camiguin (Philippines). 
C. moeniata Oberth. (Vol. I, pi. 84 f). This species having been dealt with in the palearctic part moeniata. 
of this work (Vol. I, p. 334) occurs, according to Mab tt.d e, also in Yunnan in South China, thus also in the 
Indo-Australian Region. — In the very similar species 
C. vitrea Leech (Vol. I, pi. 84 f) no particular patria had been stated by Mabille in the palearctic 
part; the species came from Ta-tsien-lu. 
14. Genus: Celaenorrliimis Hbn. 
The forms of this genus are still less distinctly separable than those of Coladenia. It is distributed over 
all the faunae of the globe and is only absent in Europe and Continental Australia. More than 50 species are 
known and it is a surprising fact how very similar the exterior of those from South America is to those from 
India being geographically distantly separated. As to the genus itself, we refer to Vol. I. p. 332. From the 
Indo-Australian Region 25 species and about twice as many forms are known. — The larvae seem to be very 
similar to those of Coladenia, being comparatively stout, green, with a short neck and a black lustrous head
