NYMPHALINJE. (Group NYMPH ALIN A.) 
57 
having their outer edge and adjacent cilia of the lobes conspicuously black; outer 
marginal angle at end of upper median and its cilia also black. Underside yellowish- 
ochreous; markings similar, the outer lines being less distinct. Body and palpi above 
reddish-ochreous; thorax and abdomen with a slender black dorsal line; body 
beneath and legs yellowish-ochreous; antennse blackish, shaft annulated with white. 
Female. Upperside paler ochreous, the interspace between the subbasal and 
medial, and of the discal and outer marginal lines being yellowish-ochreous ; all the 
markings less defined. 
Expanse, d ? 1 x - 0 to 1 ^ inch. 
Habitat. —Burma; Upper Tenasserim. 
Note. —From specimens of equal size, of the Malayan, Sumatran, Nias, Borneo, 
and Java 0. Bahria, the Burmese examples differ from all, on both the forewing 
and hindwing, in the two inner-pair of transverse lines being nearer together, 
and therefore comparatively more equidistant apart; the discal transverse fascia is 
more slender and straighter, the discal interspace between the lines narrower, the 
two outer-discal lines are also wider apart, straighter, and less catenulous on the 
hind wing, and the short central streaks more slender. On the hindwing the two 
anal black lobe-marks, and of the marginal angle (as described above), is not present 
in any specimen examined from the other-named localities. 
Distribution. —Col. C. H. E. Adamson has specimens taken at Pyin Myoung, 
Shan Hills, in July, Kathapa in February, and “Burma” in November. Dr. N. 
Manders took it in “ Eastern Karenee ” (Tr. Ent. Soc. 1890, 525). It also occurs in 
Upper Tenasserim.

Chersonesia Per aha , Distant, Ann. Nat. Hist. 1884, p. 199; Rhop. Malayana, p. 443, pi. 40, tig. 6 
(1886). 
Imago. —“Male and female. Smaller than G. Bahria; the ground-colour more 
ochreous and less rufous ; markings similar, but with the transverse fascise broader, 
much darker, and placed close together. The obsolete caudate prolongations in 
G. Bahria near the apices of the third and first median veinlets are scarcely visible 
in Peralca, and the structural peculiarity exists in the first subcostal nervule of the 
forewing, which, in this species, impinges near its base on the costal nervure. The 
female has the ground-colour paler than in the male, the wings broader, and the apex 
of the forewing more rounded.” 
Expanse, d l^o, ? 1^ inch. 
Habitat. —Tenasserim ; Malay Peninsula. 
Distribution.— Mr. de Niceville records specimens, in his own collection, from 
the Dounat Range, Tenasserim, Perak, Malay Peninsula, and N.E. Sumatra (J. A. S.
