NYMPH ALID^E. — HARM A. 



Underside rufous clouded with lilac-brown beyond the middle. Both wings with 

 the usual black lines within the cell ; both traversed beyond the middle by a double series 

 of pale spots and a subinarginal series of linear black spots. Posterior wing with a large 

 circular pale spot at the middle of the costal margin.

I have had the butterfly now figured for some years but was doubtful as to the propriety of considering 

 it distinct from //. Sangaris although Mr. Chapman of Glasgow had suggested to me that my figure in the 

 '• Exotic Butterflies " referred to above was its female. Its difference from H. Sangaris is much more readily 

 seen than described and except in the pale spot on the costal margin on the underside of the posterior wing 

 consists in its constantly smaller size and paler colour. The variety at figure 20 sent me by Mr. Rogers 

 from the Gaboon does not differ on the underside. A remark made by Mr. Druce has gone further than 

 anything else to remove all hesitation on the subject: he suggests, and I have no doubt that he is correct, that 

 the beautiful thing which I figured as 11. Uselda is the female of the true Sangaris,

Upperside. Female dark brown. Both wings with black lines and spots within 

 the cell: both crossed near the middle by a band of white commencing at the costal

 pyramidal black spots bordered above with white. Anterior wing with a trifid white 

 spot near the middle of the costal margin. Posterior wing with two small white spots in 

 the same position. 



Underside. As above except that it is rufous-brown and that the anterior wing has 

 a white spot in the cell.

When I first saw the butterfly now described I never doubted that it was the female of Aramis and 

 figured it as such without until now — when it is somewhat late — referring to my own specimens to ascertain 

 their sex. They are all females and I look forward with much interest to the time when I shall have the 

 pleasure of figuring the males of both species. 



EURYPHENE CH1LONIS. 42, 43.

 the apex white. Posterior wing with a black spot within the cell. 



Underside green clouded with brown towards the margins. Both wings with a sub-
