the usual submarginal fascia straight and rather prominent. Foreioing 

 with a small round spot towards the base of the discoidal cell, a 

 larger transverse one across its middle, and a still larger one at 

 its end 5 a small round spot above the latter on the costa ; two indis- 

 tinct ones below the cell divided by the first median nervule; a rather 

 broad even slightly outwardly curved discal band, the uppermost spot of 

 which is the smallest, the two lowermost spots in the submedian inter- 

 space darker than the rest, conjoined,' forming a figure of 8 ; the inner 

 margin broadly paler than. the rest of the wing. Bindiomg with the 

 usual four round spots across the base, followed by three others, the 

 middle one in the cell ; a large spot closing the cell ; an irregular 

 discal band, its two uppermost portions in one straight line, the 

 four following portions also in one straight line, but shifted outwardly 

 towards the margin of the wing, the two posteriormost portions 

 recurved to the abdominal margin ; the small anal lobe deep black ; 

 a small oval spot on the margin in the first median interspace crowned 

 with metallic green scales ; the space betwieen this latter spot and 

 the anal lobe sprinkled with metallic green scales, anterior to which 

 is a sprinkling of black and white scales ; a white anteciliary thread 

 promuient at the anal angle, obsolete about the middle. of the margin. 



This a.ppears to be a very distinct species. On the upperside it is 

 somewhat similar to the common A, adorea, mihi* which occurs in 

 Assam, Burma, the Malay Peninsula, and N.-E. Sumatra, from which 

 it differs in its somewhat smaller size, darker purple coloration, and 

 broader black borders. On the underside it is very near to A. ace, 

 mihiyf from the Malay Peninsula, and N.-"S. Sumatra, but the 

 ground-colour is not quite so dark, and all the spots are smaller. 



Described from a unique example in the collection of Hofrath Dr. 

 L. Martin taken at Bekautschan in March, 1894.
