B. 1885, p. 121, xi. 14 3- Appears to be abundant in the Naga Hills at 5000-6000 feet in Aug.-Sept. ISOTEINON SATWA. I. satwa, de Nicev. J. A. S. B. 1883, p. 86, t. x. 15. A pair from the Karen Hills. ISOTEINON CEPHALA. Hesperia cephala, Hew. Ent. Mo. Mag. 1876, p. 152. Isoteinon cephala, Elwes, Trans. Ent. Soc. 1888, p. 456, t. xi. 10. A single female from the Karen Hills. ISOTEINON CEPHALOIDES. I. cephaloides, de Nicev. J. A. S. B. 1888, p. 288, t. xiii. 4 3. A male from the Naga Hills, and a female which agrees with it from Bernardmyo. ISOTEINON IAPIS. L. iapis, de Nicev. Journ. Bomb. Nat. Hist. Soc. 1890, p. 313, t. E. 9 3. A single specimen from Perak. SATARUPA PHISARA, var. ? S.phisara, Moore, J. A. S. B. 1884, pt. ii. p. 35; Elwes, Trans. Ent. Soc. 1888, p. 457. Four males from Bernardmyo differ from all my Sikkim specimens in having the band of the fore wing distinct on the hind margin, while in those from Sikkim it is faint or wanting ; also in having two glassy spots above the large one in the middle of the fore wing, instead of one small one. The apical spots are also larger and better marked, agreeing in this respect with one female from Sikkim. As, however, there is some variation in all these points in Sikkim specimens, I do not think there is enough difference between the two forms to justify their separation. SATARUPA BHAGAVA. S. bhagava, Moore, P. Z. S. 1865, p. 781. 1 S. narada, Moore, J. A. S. B. 1884, pt. ii. p. 35. A single male from the Karen Hills which is intermediate between Sikkim specimens which I had referred to two supposed species. I am now, however, inclined to think that they are the same and that it is a variable one. TAGIADES RAVI. Goniloba ravi, Moore, Cat. E. I. C. i. p. 246. T. khasiana, Moore, J. A. S. B. 1884, p. 51. Naga and Karen Hills, where it seems common. I do not see how to distinguish T. khasiana from T. ravi. |
