NEW AND LITTLE-KNOWN BUTTERFLIES. 145 



Kina Balu, Borneo; but the coloration of tlie upperside is Jififerent, that 

 species being " dnil grepsh silvery blue," and the hindwing on the 

 underside in that species has some blackish spots. Mr. Henley Grose Smith 

 has described a Cyaniris hjce * from South Celebes, but the description 

 is very short, and no characteristic points are brought forward, so 

 without a figure the description is useless for recognition. 



Described from two pairs captured by Herr H. Fruhstorfer at Bua- 

 Kraeng, in South Celebes, at an elevation of 5,000 feet, in February, 

 1896, and kindly given to me by that gentleman.
