Mr. Snellen, I.e., figures the two forms of t lie present subspecies, wlii<'li are now 

 known as intacta AValk. and lara Swinh. 



.'/'. A. heliconia intacta f. intacta. 



This is the darker form. Head and thorax are almost of the same colonr as 

 the forewing ; the base of the latter is not distinctly yellow ; the abdomen is 

 nsnally of a yellowish cream-colonr, sometimes more whitish, and is in the greater 

 percentage of specimens banded with black. The white median streak of the 

 forewing either totally absent from the npperside, or more or less indistinctly 

 marked ; on the underside the streak is often also absent from the male ; in the 

 female sex, which has the median streak seldom visibly develoijed on the npper- 

 side, the underside of the forewing is mostly much more extended white than in 

 the male : in one female there is a white line behind the costa at the base of the 

 forewing below. The black dot at the end of the cell of the hindwing is sometimes 

 well marked on both sides in cf and ? . 



f. A. heliconia intacta I', lara. 



Uypm lara Swinboe, Ann. Uaij. IV. II. (G). XII. p. 215 (1803) (Java). 



The abdomen is in this form more whitish than in the former; it is cither 

 ringed with black as in f. intacta, or has a median row of black dots. The forewing 

 bears in both sexes a long white triangle above, the lower external angle of which 

 stands either between veins 2 and 3 or on vein 2. The border to the hindwing is 

 posteriorly narrower than in f. intacta; there is as a rule no trace of black cellular 

 dots on the upperside, and sometimes these spots are also absent from the underside. 

 The forewing is below in both sexes more white than in f. intacta, in fact in the cf 

 of f. lara more white than in the ? of f. intacta. 



llab. Both forms, f. intacta and f. lara, occur in the same locality at the same 

 time of the year all over Java up to 4U00 feet, also on Bali ; 15 cJ, 15 ? . K. J. 



/'. A. heliconia murina subsji. no v. 

 Two forms, of which the second one is apparently very rare. 



/''. A. heliconia murina f. murina. 



This form has the same peculiar dull colour which we observe in the Javau 

 A. heliconia intacta f. intacta, \mH\\(i head and abdomeu arc brighter yellow, the 

 black spots on the j)atagia are generally larger, and the black bonier of the hindwing 

 is mostlv more or less extended along the iilnloniiual niargi". Tin' medi:ni white
