LEPIDOPTERA INDIGA. 
Distribution. —A male, labelled Sikkim, is in Mr. H. J. Elwes’ Collection. A 
female, also labelled Sikkim, is in Col. C. Swinhoe’s Collection. Mr. L. de Niceville 
says “ its occurrence in Sikkim is more than doubtful ” (Sikkim Caz. 1894, p. 173). 
It is recorded by Col. Swinhoe from the (i Khasia Hills ” (Tr. Ent. Soc. 1893, 315). 
We possess specimens from Silhet. Col. C. H. E. Adamson records it as e ‘ a rare 
species in Burma ; three specimens only were taken by me in Tenasserim, in March 
and April” (List, 1897, 49). Lieut. E. Y. Watson obtained “a few specimens at 
Beeling, Upper Tenasserim” (J. Bombay N. H. S. 1888, 26). Col. C. T. Bingham 
took it in the Ataran Valley, Tenasserim, in March, and also in the Thoungyeen 
Valley. Mr. II. J. Elwes records “ many males from Ponsekai and the Hills on the 
Siamese frontier” (J. As. Soc. Beng. 1887, 433). Mr. W. Rothschild has a female 
from Martaban, Pegu, taken by Col. Bingham, and also both sexes from Muong 
Gnow, Shan States.
