We consider the generalised Mathieu series ∑n=1^∞ (nγ)/((nλ+aλ)μ) (μ>0) when the parameters λ (>0) and γ are even integers for large complex a in the sector |arg a|<π/λ. The asymptotics in this case consist of a \it finite algebraic expansion together with an infinite sequence of increasingly subdominant exponentially small expansions. When μ is also a positive integer it is possible to give closed-form evaluations of this series. Numerical results are given to illustrate the accuracy of the expansion obtained.
