A.lnlias dny.ratn.s, IJutler. rroc. Zodl. Soc. 1808, p. 605. n. 39, t. xlv. f. 2 & it. 



Male. Wings above fuli.i^inous-lirown. Anterior wings with the cell crossed by four dark fuscous 

 lines, two near base and two about apex, and one beyond extremity, waved and convex ; beneath the median 

 nervure is a looped line on each side of the base of third median nervule, and a short line a little distance 

 from base of submedian nervure ; a broad submarginal greyish fascia, more or less suffused with bronzy- 

 green, the margins of which are convexly dentate inwardly and concavely dentate outwardly, where it is 

 also distinctly margined with fuscous. Posterior wings with the outer half greyish, shaded with bronzy- 

 green from about discoidal nervule to anal angle, and containing a central much-waved and inwardly 

 dentate narrow fuscous fascia ; cell crossed by a dark line near base and a double looped line near apex ; 

 a small spot near bases of second and third median nervules. Wings beneath ochraceous ; anterior 



wings marked as above ; posterior wings marked as above, 

 hut with the following additional blackish lines : — a large 

 looped line above and a smaller looped line beneath the 

 base of the first subcostal nervule, and a curved line near 

 base of discoidal nervule. Body and legs more or less 

 concoloroTis with wings. 



Female. I have not seen this specimen, but repro- 

 duce Mr. Butler's figure and description : — 



" S . Alas multo majores, supra fuses, fascia multo 

 latiore albicante et in posticis intus magis irregulari ; 

 subtus fascia velut supra vu'idi, oisalescente fusco mar- 

 ginata ; area basali flava, characterihus nigro-fuscis ; mar- 

 gine externo omnino ad fasciam albido opalescente ; corpus 



supra fuscum, subtus albiim." 

 Exp. wings, <? 54 to '>('> millini. 



H.ui.— Malay Peninsula ; Province Wellesley (coll. Dist.) ; Singapore (coll. Eoberts). 



The males of this species vary in hue ; specimens from Province Wellesley, of which one is 

 here figured, being paler than the Singapore type as delineated by Mr. Butler ; the greyish 

 fascia to the anterior wings of the former also appears to be slightly broader than that as 

 portrayed in the latter.

Male. Wings above dark fuliginous-brown. Anterior wings with the cell crossed by five dark lines, 

 situate two wide apart near base, two closer together about centre, and one at extremity ; beneath the cell 

 are some obscure dark looped lines, situate one before the third median nervule and two between that 

 nervule and the submedian nervure; a submarginal obscure greenish fascia becoming broad towards 

 posterior angle, and containing a central dark brown and much-waved line. Posterior wings with a 

 very broad blue marginal fascia, which loses its bright hue above the lower subcostal nervule, and is 

 mtersected a little above its middle by a much-waved dark brown line ; basal area suffused with some 

 scattered l)ronzy-green scales. Wings beneath warm ochraceous ; anterior wings with the cellular and 

 following markings as above: posterior wings with the cell crossed by two blackish lines near base
