Hewitson. Grose Smith. Kirby. Originally described from 
Sumatra, where it occurs rarely at Namoe Oekor. 
653. Iambrix stellifer, Butler. 
Grose Smith as salsala. Captain E. Y. Watson notes that 11 1. stellifer 
is quite distinct from I. salsala , Moore, with which it has been said to 
be synonymous. It is smaller and darker, and is entirely without the 
golden yellow scales on the upperside which are characteristic of 
I. salsala.” It is a common species in the forests of the outer hills 
throughout the year. It has a very quick flight, and keeps close to the 
ground; being so small it is not easy to see when on the wing. 
654. Iambrix sindu, Felder. 
Hagen. Grose Smith. Found in the same localities and at the 
same seasons as the last-named butterfly, but is rarer and not so quick 
on the wing.
