It is very difficult to decide upon the correct systematic name for this 

 species. I have kept to Snellen's, because I find in his notes that he adopts 

 it not so much upon the ground of Hewitsox's hast}- description and illustration, 

 as because our Java specimens correspond to the specimens in Hewitson's 

 collection, which he himself determined as the species A. Bazaloides. Snellen 

 takes Hewitsox's A. Bupola to be the 9 of this species. I think, however, 

 that our Javan specimens much more resemble Hewitsox's illustration of his 

 A. Bazalus (Cat. Lep. B. M., p. 8, pi. 4, fig. 37, 38) than his A. Bazaloides, 

 and it is the same in regard to the illustrations which Swixhoe gives of these 

 two species, neither does Bethuxe — Baker's illustration of A. Bazaloides corres- 

 pond to my Javan specimens. There is moreover some confusion, for, whereas 

 Snellen brings both the A. Bazalus and A. Feesta of de Niceville under 

 Bazaloides, Bethuxe — Baker is of opinion that only the former is identical with 

 Bazaloides, while A. Feesta is the same as Bazalus. Much more extensive 

 material than I have at my disposal would be needed to clear up this point 

 of difference. 



Fruhstori'Er calls the Javan form Pkatixas. According to him the spe- 

 cimens from E. J. are larger than those from W. J. and have somewhat 

 rounder wings.

In the Leiden museum there is a o' specimen corresponding well with 

 DE Nicevtlle's illustration and description, which was sent long ago by Muller, 

 as having been caught in Java, without, however, any further indication of 

 the place of capture.
