Distribution. —The type specimen, in the Berlin Museum, is recorded by 
Dr. Felder from the island of Sambelong, Nicobars. Messrs. Wood-Mason and 
de Niceville record it from Nankowri and Katschall, and Great Nicobar Island (lx. 
1882, 18). Prof. B. Meldola obtained it at “ Sambelong ” (P.Z.S. 1877, 591). A 
male in the British Museum is labelled “ Kamorta.” Col. C. Swinhoe has both 
sexes from Katschall, and a female from Port Blair, Andamans, the latter taken by 
Mr. Wimberley. Col. C. T. Bingham has recently received it from the Nicobars and 
the Andamans.
