21. # Euplcea ( Andasena ) orope, Boisduval. 
Kirby. Butler as a var. with a query, from Sumatra. Originally 
described from Taiti, recorded from Timor by Butler. Very doubtfully 
Sumatran. 
25. # Eitpl(ea ( Betanga ) scherzeri, Felder. 
Kirby. Originally described from Ceylon. Entirely unknown to us. 
26. Euplcea ( Penoa ) menetriesii, Felder. 
Grose Smith. Hagen. Distant. Not very common. Found in the 
plains and also on the outer hills as high as Bekantschan. The female is 
much rarer than the male, and often shews a white sj)ot in the discoidal 
cell of the forewing on the upperside. It has in the male a much 
smaller “ male-mark ” than E. joinwillii , Butler. 
27. Eupl(ea ( Penoa ) pinwillii, Butler. 
Hagen as yinwilli, Godardt [sic]. Staudinger. Is very common 
everywhere at low elevations, and especially frequents the above-men¬ 
tioned Heliotrope-like flowers. The female is of course much rarer than 
the male, and possesses a violet gloss to both wings on the upperside, 
which the female of E. menetriesii , Felder, never has. It has in the 
male a much larger “ male-mark ” than in E. menetriesii. 
28. # Eupl(ea ( Crastia ) core, Cramer. 
A single female recorded from Sumatra by Snellen, the specimen 
being probably some species of Tronga . E. core is practically confined to 
the continent of India. 
29. Euplcea ( Crastia ) distantit, Moore. 
Crastia distantii , Moore, Ann. and Mag. of Nat. Hist., fifth series, vol. ix,

fig. 6, male. 
Moore. Hagen as distanti [sic]. Distant as distanii [sic]. Ori¬ 
ginally described from Sumatra. Never found at the higher elevations 
in the hills, and is more plentiful near the sea; especially so in both sexes 
on both sides of the Wampoe Biver near the village of Stabat. It is the 
commonest of the brown Euploeas in our area. Both sexes exhibit very 
many variations in the shade of the brown colour of both wings. The 
male has sometimes absolutely no “ male-mark ” as should be exhibited 
according to Mr. Moore’s definition of his group A; there is sometimes
