ANOPS. 15 



Genus ANOPS. 



Anops, Boisduval. 

 Phaedra, Horsfield. 



I have retained Dr. Boisduval's name for this genus in preference to that of 

 Dr. Horsfield, which was founded in error.

In Collections from North India, Ceylon, Celebes, Borneo, and Amboyna. 



After a careful and repeated examination of a large series of specimens, and every wish to 

 adopt the species proposed by other entomologists, I feel compelled most reluctantly to come to 

 the conclusion that this genus, as we know it up to the present time, contains two species only — 

 A. Bulls, which is easily known, and A. Thetys, of which the difficulty is to find two examples 

 that are alike, varying in the males in the breadth of the margin, in the females in the colour 

 of the centre of the wings, and on the underside of both from a pure spotless white to the 

 clouded, distinctly banded variety from Borneo and Celebes. A variety of the female in the 

 Collection of Mr. Wallace is all brown above, with the exception of a moderate-sized white spot 

 on the middle of the anterior wing, and a minute round spot of the same colour near the apex 

 of the posterior wing.
