The above series of twelve long-wing specimens typify the 
description, though as seen in the measurements there is con¬ 
siderable variation, especially with regard to the pronotum and 
wings. Three males and four males from Peradeniya “ caught 
at light” during the months of March, April, May, October, and 
November from 1900-1903. One male caught at light, Dambulla, 
November, one male, Kesbewa (Colombo), April, “from rice field 
and dry bed of tank.” One male “ caught at light,” Colombo. 
April. One male “ from margin of tank,” Kandy, November.
