4. Lampides aluta, (Cupido aluta) Druce, P. Z. S. p. 349. n. 16, pi. xxxii. fig. 8(1873). 

 c? ? , Malacca. Nearly allied to L. nora of Eelder, from Amboina, but smaller, with 

 less acuminate primaries. 



5. Lampides admora?, (Cupido almora) Druce, P. Z. S. p. 349. n. 14, pi. xxxii. fig. 7

 S ? , Malacca. 



9. Lampides pseudelpis, n. sp. (PI. LXVIIL figs. 7, 8). Nearly allied to L. elpis, which 

 it resembles above ; below, however, with the white transverse bands narrower, irre- 

 gular, and broken up, the ground-colour more distinctly bluish opaline, and the large 

 sub marginal black spot of secondaries less broadly encircled by ochreous. Expanse of 

 wings 1 inch 6 lines, c? $ , Malacca. 



10. Lampides eankena ?, (Lyccena hankena) Eelder, Verh. zool.-bot. Ges. xii. p. 481 

 (1862). 8 ?, Malacca. 



Genus Catap^cilma, n, gen. 

 Allied to Lampides and Miletus, but differs from both in having three tails to the 

 secondaries ; the antennse are long, slender, and acuminate ; the wing-cells and neura- 

 tion generally are very like that of Lampides; the wings below are spangled with 

 silver, much as in Miletus (ITypochrysops, part, Eelder).
