150a. Ictinus decoratus Selys. View in CoL -

S. Lampoeng Res.: Talangpadang. 150 m. 1 ♂. June 1. 1929. Drescher leg . ; Gisting. 500 m. Waiberah . 8 ♂. 1♀. Dec. 30. 1934. Author leg . - This small series. taken in one locality and on the same day. increases the difficulties where to place the Ictinus of the Lampoeng districts. So far as colours are concerned, some of the males are true to typical decoratus from Java. the majority are perfectly intermediate b etween the two "species". and only one at and the single ♀ are not different from typical melaenops of N. Sumatra. For the present. I am unable to decide how to classify the intermediate forms. being at a loss for a correct discrimination of the two spedes.
