 spots are margined with greyish. Body and legs more or luss concolorous with wings. 



Female. " Upperside pale glossy blue; eilia white, streaked with brown; °forewm<. with a bro-.d 

 dusky black baud along the costa and exterior margin ; a patch below the apex, a diseocellular spot 

 and a lower discal spot also black; a short white streak at posterior angle; hindwing broadly dusky bh.k 

 along anterior margin; the exterior margin with a series of black spots bordered witli bluish white au.l an 

 inner dusky line." 



Wings beneath marked as in male, but the ground colour paler.

When I redescribed this species I possessed the male sex ouly, wliicli is very dissimilar 

 to the female, which was described and tigurcd l)y Mr. Moore (witliout meutiouing the sex) 

 under the name of a new genus. Now, however, that I possess both sexes the d'ifficulty is 

 solved, and Mr. Moore's proposed genus Xiphanda will ])robably accompany my si^ecific name 

 L. (ethiops into the limbo of synonj-mic forgetfulness. 



The peculiarity of L. ksscUata is in its Ethiopian appearance, its most closely allied 

 species being found in the "West African L. lunjdas, Cram.

" Upper-side : cferulean-blue with all the margins broadly brown. Posterior wing with two slender tails 

 the outer margin rufous, broadest near the anal angle, where it is bordered above and below with silver." 



"Under-side: rufous. Both wings undulated throughout with black, marked by several irre"ular 

 black spots, and by numerous small silvery-blue spots, some of which form two sub-marginal bands." 



Exp. wings, "h% inch." 



Ha£.— Malay Peninsula; Malacca (Wallace— coll. Hewits.). 



I place this species with considerable hesitation in the genus Cutapcecilma. It is ouly 

 known to me by the type specimen in the Hewitsonian collection, of which a figure is liere 

 given, and I am therefore unable to take liberties with the specimen for the purpose of 

 studying the neuration. Again, the specimen possesses — as described— only two slender 

 tail-like appendages ; and if a third has not been mutilated, this character is divergent from 

 CatajKEcilma. 



This species having not hitherto been figured, Mr. de Niceville has wrongly identified 

 a Sikkim species* as conspecific with it. The Sikkim species is therefore undescribed and 

 requires a distinctive name. 



Genus HOEAGA {to follow Catap.ecilma). 



Horai/a, Moore, Lep. Ceyl. vol. i. p. 98 (1881). 



This genus is allied to Cataparilma by the character of the posterior wings, which possess 

 three slender tail-like appendages, and also by the anterior wings having three subcostal 

 nervules only.
