SO ME, G. T. BETHUXE-BAKER : A REVISION OF THE 



Ariiopala subfasciata (Moore). 

 Ni/asera subfasciata Moore, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond. 1883, p. 532, pi. xlix. fig. 2. 

 Arhopala subfasciata Doherty, Joura. A. S. B. vol. lviii. pt. 2, p. 418. n. 5 (1889) ; de Niceville, 

 Butt. Ind. vol. iii. p. 260. n. 820 (1890). 



Hab. Tavoy ; Tenasserim Valley ; Burma. 



Expanse, 6 44, $ 48-49 mm. 



This is a very beautiful species and should be distinguishable at a glance. It is, 

 however, very close to ijauensis mini, but is a much less robust insect, has a much 

 larger blue area, and is very decidedly paler beneath ; my species is more uniform in 

 tone, and there is only a trace of the very distinct white subcostal stripe so marked in 

 Moore's species. 



Arhopala ijauensis Bethune-Baker. (Plate I. fig. 28, d .) 

 Arhopala ijauensis (recte ijauensis) Betlnme-Baker, Eut. Mo. Mag. vol. xxxiii. p. 203 (1897). 



Hab. Perak (Gunong Ijau). 



Expanse, s & 2 , 48-50 mm. 



This fine species, in the Hon. Walter Rothschild's collection, is close to subfasciata 

 Moore, but decidedly larger ; the differences will be better gathered by reference to the 

 figure. 



Arhopala auxesia (Hewitson). (Plate III. fig. 23.) 

 Amblypodia auxesia Hewitson, 111. Diurn. Lep., Lye. p. 5, pi. i. figs. 1 9 , 2 & 3 S (1865). 



Hab. Sumatra; New Guinea. 



Expanse 48-51 mm. 



This species is nearest auzea de Niceville, but the upperside colour is quite different ; 

 the distinctions are detailed in the description of that insect. 



Arhopala fruhstorferi Rober. 



Amblypodia fruhstorferi Rober, Ent. Nack. vol. xxiii. p. 6 (1897). 



Hob. Java (Gede Mountain). 



Expanse 43 mm. 



This species is described from a single female ; unfortunately the description is 

 decidedly inadequate, but, so far as I can judge, not having seen the specimen, I 

 believe it to be most probably auxesia Hew. 



Arhopala auzea de Niceville. 

 Arhopala auzea de Niceville, Joum. Bomb. Nat. Hist. Soc. vol. x. p. 169. n. 19, pi. S. figs. 29 J,

 Hab. Java (Preanger).
