which have an evenly curved front edge ; the dorsal apex of the 
tegumen is deeply excavated in the front ; the falces are very strongly 
formed, of unusual width at their sockets and well curved, ending in 
a short talon ; the furca is short, with moderately broad arms, and 
curved backv'ards. Penis sheath with the hinder two-thirds broad, 
the front third being a somewhat curved tube of nearly even width, 
slightly expanding at the orifice. The front edge of the cheeks of 
the tegumen is thickly furnished with hairs, the harpagines having 
but few.

The blue of the upperside is scarcely distinguishable from its 
close allies, but on the undersurface it is more easily separated ; the 
costal spot of the postmedian stripe of the secondaries is red, whilst 
the eighth spot, forming the lower angle of the angled spot, is like¬ 
wise red ; these characteristics separate it easily from its allies. At 
first sight it looks very close indeed to lasti, but Druce’s species has 
no basal spots in either wing, therefore it will not fall into that 
section.

g. Upperside : both wings deep brownish purple, with fine linear 
black margins ; fringes dark brown. Underside : both wings rufous 
brown, with pattern scarcely darker than the ground-colour, but in 
the secondaries somewhat filled in with reddish ; all the pattern has 
paler edges. Primaries cell closed by a good-sized quadrate spot with 
a pale central line; an irregular postmedian band, slightly fractured 
inwards at vein 4, and well fractured inwards below vein 2 ; a sub¬ 
terminal band from the apex to vein la. Secondaries with no spots 
nearer the base than the quadrate spot closing the cell, which has a 
paler middle line. The postmedian band is very irregular and 
mostly filled in with red ; the second spot is shifted right outwards, 
the third to fifth spot form a subconfluent series shifted right out from 
2, l)ut the fifth is slightly shifted in from the fourth, sixth spot 
oblique and shifted in, angled spot shifted in again, and very 
strongly filled in with red ; beyond this another red spot on the 
inner margin ; a trace of a subterminal band, a large, and prominent, 
velvety black spot between veins 2 and 3, and a double prominent 
one at the angle, all with bluish metallic scales, and edged broadly
