NEW INDO-MALAYAN BUTTERFLIES. 337 



in T. diceus, Hewitson. Hindicing with all excejDt the costa broadly 

 and the abdominal margin (which latter is grey) bluish-purijle ; 

 , a very small black anal lobe; the outer margin very narro\\ly 

 black. Tails black, tipped with white. Underside, both uiiujs 

 French-grey ; a fine anteciliary black thread. Forcwinr/ with a fine 

 discal straight broken blackish line, ending anteriorly on the sub- 

 costal, posteriorly on the submedian nervure ; an indistinct submarginal 

 pale broken line. Einclwing with a much broken discal line, poste- 

 riorly recurved to the abdominal margin ; a submarginal pale broken 

 line; a marginal white line from the anal angle to the third 

 median nervule ; an. oval deep black spot near the outer margin in 

 the first median interspace, surrounded by an ochreous ring • two 

 lunular marks in the submedian interspace made up of mixed black 

 and blue scales ; a small deep black spot on the anal lobe, outwardly 

 bearing a few turquoise-blue scales, anteriorly defined with a small 

 rich ochreous patch. 



Near to T. dimis, Hewitson, from the Western Himalayas, Sikkim 

 and Khasi Hills, from which it differs on the underside in the discal line 

 of the forewing being broken and not reaching the costa, that line 

 on the hindwing also being broken and placed nearer to and parallel 

 with the outer margin. Still nearer to T. alhiflaga, mihi, from 

 Sikkim, differing therefrom in the purplish-blue instead of cerulean- 

 blue of the upperside of both wings ; the much smaller extent of the 

 blue colour on the forewing ; and on the underside of both wino-s 

 in the absence of the dark lines defining the disco-cellular nervules. 



Described from a single example kindly placed at my disposal by the 

 Eev. Walter A. Hamilton, by whose native collectors it was obtained.
