Imaco.—Male. “Closely allied to A. amathusia. Upperside coloured and 
marked in the same manner, but with the ocelli as well as the strigz of the under- 
side showing through. Forewing with the apex angulated but not produced, the 
outer margin arched instead of being concave, sinuous, and the inner angle not so 
broadly rounded. Hindwing darker coloured, and also paling towards the outer 
margin, but with the submarginal series of arcuate marks smaller and less distinct. 
Underside coloured and marked in much the same manner, but with more perfectly 
formed and more numerous ocelli, the forewing having three—(the first between the 
submedian vein and the first median veinlet, the second the largest and best defined) 
—perfect ocelli and two or three rudimentary ones following them, and the hind- 
wing having one rudimentary (close to the submedian vein) and six (the first in the 
same interspace with the rudimentary one, and the second the largest of all) perfect 
ocelli; each ocellus dark brown encircled by a very fine line of the colour of the 
strige and pupilled with iridescent silvery-white; the thin submarginal brown line 
more deeply engrailed.’’ Female unknown. 
Expanse, ¢ 2,% inches. 
Hasitat.—Assam. 
Distrizsurion.—The type specimens were taken by Mr. 8. EH. Peal at Sibsagar, 
Upper Assam, and are in the Indian Museum, Calcutta. According to Mr. W. 
Doherty (J. A. 8. Beng. 1889, 124), ““ Av. Pealii appears to be the wet-season form 
of 4. amathusia, differing only in the less acute and falcate forewing, the more 
distinct ocelli, and brighter colouring below. I took two specimens of Pealii near 
Sadiya in September; the outer margin of the forewing was convex throughout, but 
the apex was slightly more acute than in the type. On the 1st of December, I 
caught a single ragged specimen of Amathusia near Margherita, apparently quite 
typical.” Mr. Ernst Hartert, who accompanied Mr. Doherty in his Assam journey, 
also records (Proc. A. 8. Beng. 1890, 205) the capture of this species. 
Of our illustrations of this species on Plate 165, figs. 1, la are reproductions 
of Mr. Wood-Mason’s figure in the Journ. Asiatic Society of Bengal for 1880.
