Mr. Moore, in P. Z. S. 1882, p. 245, bas put tbis fspecies as a 

 synonym to the preceding one. This I think is a mistake. He had, 

 if I recollect rightly, only two examples, both males, in his collection. 

 They were quite common at Mhow ; and I found no difficulty in 

 recognizing them, they are much paler blue than Z. maha. The 

 females are the same colour as the males, instead of brown 'like 

 Z. maha, and the underside in both sexes has very faint spots on^the 

 hind wings, each spot having a whitish ring round it.

Tbis insect is very variable in colour ; the type is brown. Irre- 

 spective of sex, the colour varies from blue to dark brown. I have 

 many examples from Quetta, Metazai, Sukkur, Karachi, the Punjaub, 

 Central India, the Deccan, and also from Aden, of many shades of 

 colour, quite impossible to separate.
