dark margin is wider and extends nearly to vein 4, but does not coalesce here 
with the terminal margin, thus leaving a small blue area. Hindwing on 
upper and under surfaces as in the male. 
295. Arphola agnis, Felder. 
Three males and two females were taken on Kambauk hill, 300’, about the 
middle of January 1920. It appears to be rare and was not seen anywhere else, 
296. Arphola hewitsoni, B.B. 
A common species of which I secured a large series. It is to be found on 
all the hills from November to May. 
297. Arhopala azata, DeN. 
A single male taken on Pagaye hill, 600’, on 7th January 1920, This 
species was described from the Malay Peninsula, and has so far not been re- 
corded from the Indian region. Upperside both wings pale purple. Forewing 
has the outer margin very narrowly black ; the discocellulars defined by a 
narrow dark line. Hindwing has the exterior margin narrowly black, the anal 
lobe black sprinkled with grey. Tail about $ inch long, black, tipped with 
white. Underside : Forewing greyish-brown, the spots of a darker shade, an- 
nular and outlined with white. Two spots within the cell, the basal one 
small, the central one large and oval, with a larger spot at the end of the cell, 
a spot below the cell in the first median interspace with a larger spot below 
it in the submedian area. A discal series of eight spots, the first minuae on 
the costa, the next three, subequal, in line and shifted upwards, followed by 
four spots, shifted inwards and in line with the first ; a postdiscal and sub- 
marginal lunular whitish band. Hindwing with three basal and three discal 
annular spots, a large quadrate discocellular spot, a discal band of eight 
spots, in pairs, all outlined with white. Postdiscal and submarginal lunulated 
bands, whitish. Expanse ¢ 1-3 inches. 
298. ArhopalaSp. Q No. V. in plate. 
Expanse : female two inches. Upperside; purplish blue. Forewing with 
the costal and outer margins, especially at the apex, broadly fuscus, this 
margin decreasing in width to the anal angle. Hindwing with the costal 
and outer margins, moderately broadly fuscus, and also decreasing in width 
to the anal angle ; tail fuscus, tipped with white ; adbominal marginal whitish ; 
anal lobe small but distinct. Underside; pale brown, the spots of a much 
darker shade and outwardly defined with a pale line ; a small round spot at 
base cf cell, a large oval one in the middle with two small spots above, bet- 
ween it and the costa, the lower spot of the two is attached to the spot in the 
middle of the cell; alarge ill-shaped spot at the end of the cell, with two 
small spots aboveit and attached toit, making in all four small spots above 
the cell ; the usual discal band represented by four oval spots, in pairs, the 
upper pair placed obliquely on the disc, between the end of the cell and 
outer margin; the lower pair shifted inwards and separated by the 2nd 
median nervule; an elongated spot beneath the cell, between the bases of 
the 2nd and Ist median nervules ; two large spots in the submedian inter- 
space one below the middle of the cell and the other at the base of the 
wings ; a submarginal series of diffused spots; a large pale area below the 
cell and the first median nervule. Hindwing: five basal spots, the middle 
one being at the base of the cell; a large oval spot in the middle of the cell 
with a large spot above it, a quadrate spot on costal margin near apex, a 
very large spot at end of cell, an oval spot between the bases of the Ist 
and 2nd median nervules and a large cordate spot in the submedian area ; 
a discal series of five sub-quadrate spots the first two on the disc, about 
midway between the end of the cell and the outer margin, the next two 
shifted inwards and separated by the 2nd median nervule, the fifth shifted 
still further inwards in the first median interspace; submarginal band as.
