row of small slightly ovate spots, and a marginal row of smaller rounded white spots. 
Underside dark violaceous-brown. Ebrewing with a small pale violet-blue costal 
spot, one at lower end of the cell, a discal spot between the upper and middle 
median veinlets, and sometimes two smaller upper discal spots, a larger paler lower 
discal spot between the middle and lower medians, and a submarginal and marginal 
row of minute white spots, which are generally obsolete anteriorly. Sexual maids 
pale brown, both clothed with regularly-disposed short round-tipt ribbed scales, 
with a few intervening very narrow white scales and here and there a very slender 
white projecting scale; posterior margin glossy-cinereous. Hindwing with both 
marginal rows of spots as above, and also a small violet-blue spot at end of the cell, 
and a discal series of six small spots. Some white spots at the base of the wing. 
Body dark brown; head, palpi, thorax above and beneath black, spotted with 
white; legs black, fore femora white beneath; abdomen beneath with grey bands. 
Female. Upperside as in the male, excepting that the fore wing is straight along the 
posterior margin, and in the absence of the sexual marks. On the underside the 
forewing has an elongated pale streak above the pearly-grey posterior margin. 
Expanse, $ 3J- to 3 f, ¥ 4 to 4J inches. 
Habitat. —Tenasserim, Lower Burma. 
Dr. Bogenhofer, the Custodian of the Vienna Museum of Zoology, has kindly 
favoured us with a coloured drawing of the type specimen of Felder’s E. Harrisi , of 
which the illustration on our plate 52, fig. 1, is a copy. Specimens of this species 
had previously been identified as representing E. Qrotei of Felder, an erroneous 
identification which arose from Felder having erroneously figured the female of our 
present species ( Harrisi ) as representing that sex of the E. Qrotei. The male of the 
latter named species (Grotei) is described as possessing only one sexual mark on 
the forewing. 
Distiubtjtion. —This specfes has been taken in Moulmein in June. Mr. Otto 
Limborg (P. Z. S. 1878, 824) took it in Upper Tenasserim, at Ahsown, above 
Alisown, and from Hatseiga to Houngduran. “ Capt. C. T. Bingham obtained 
numerous specimens in the autumn in the Thoungyeen forests” (Butt. Ind. 92). 
It has been taken in the Mepley Valley in October. Major 0. H. E. Adamson 
(Notes on the Danainse of Burma (1889), p. 14) records the capture of one male at 
Mepley in February, one male in June at Moulmein, and four males and two females 
in July at Hpa An, all in Tenasserim. These are the only specimens taken of this 
rare insect, and it does not appear to extend further north than the Tenasserim 
district. Its caudal appendages are light brown. Messrs. Elwes and de Niceville 
(J. A S. Beng. 1887, 416) notice the capture of several specimens at Tavoy and 
Sinbyoodine. Dr. J. Anderson (J. Linn. Soc. Zool. 1886, 31) records its capture in 
the Mergui Archipelago in “ December and January.”
