  Notes. 
  — 
  This 
  subspecies 
  was 
  recorded 
  from 
  Manus 
  by 
  Eothscliild 
  

   under 
  the 
  name 
  of 
  Arhopala 
  helius. 
  Our 
  specimens 
  agree 
  with 
  others 
  

   in 
  the 
  National 
  Museum 
  collection 
  labeled 
  "German 
  New 
  Guinea." 
  

  

  In 
  shady 
  forests, 
  often 
  along 
  rocky 
  streams, 
  this 
  flashy 
  hairstreak 
  is 
  

   locally 
  frequent. 
  Wlien 
  a 
  woodland 
  spot 
  is 
  found 
  where 
  it 
  occurs 
  each 
  

   visit 
  will 
  yield 
  several 
  specimens. 
  It 
  is 
  usuallj^ 
  seen 
  resting, 
  with 
  wings 
  

   closed, 
  on 
  large 
  leaves 
  of 
  shrubs 
  and 
  large 
  herbs. 
  It 
  is 
  not 
  very 
  wary 
  

   and 
  may 
  rather 
  easily 
  be 
  approached 
  and 
  caught. 
  The 
  flight 
  is 
  direct, 
  

   and 
  the 
  brilliant 
  blue 
  color 
  of 
  the 
  upper 
  surface 
  flashes 
  brightly.
