4 The Sarawak Museum series has examples with dark apex from North 
Borneo (= nigriana Gr.-Sm.), connected by a slightly lighter form from 
Northern Sarawak to typical Sarawak forms with broad white submarginal 
area and marked yellow tinge at base of fore wing (= chersonesia Fruhst.); 
there is also a Sarawak specimen without the yellow tinge and with rather 
lighter ground-colour (— natunensis Snell.). 
As the last two occur together and the first two are connected by 
transitions, I unite all three under one subspecific name chersonesia , noting, 
however, that this Bornean subspecies has melanistic tendencies as it 
proceeds further north. 
Shelford queried the subspecific value of the above three forms. 
The Javan form javana Fruhst., described as intermediate between 
chersonesia and nigriana, should also be merged with chersonesia in all 
probability. 
6 Fruhstorfer refers typical daos to South Borneo, with darker males 
called form infumata from South-east and South-west Borneo, and a 
separate subspecies ardana from Kinabalu. The slight differences given by 
Fruhstorfer are not maintained in a series before me from Kinabalu, 
Sarawak mountains and Sarawak low country. 
6 Fruhstorfer separates the Bornean form as kinitis ; the differences do 
not appear to me sufficiently distinct or constant to separate it from the 
forms found in the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra and Java. 
7 According to Fruhstorfer (1910) this subspecies is “very rare, 
hitherto only one male described from coll. Fruhstorfer.” Shelford 
(1904) reported it as common on Mt. Penrissen in 1899. A female was 
obtained on my visit to that mountain in 1900; it differs from the male 
in having the white spots of the submarginal border in the hind wing 
rather more prominent. The wings are slightly broader and less pointed 
as in crowleyi. The abdomen beneath is white, not grey, as stated by 
Fruhstorfer.
