placed at the point where the first median nervule arises ; another 

 spot at the base of the first median interspace ; a discal increasing 

 outwardly-curved continuous chain of seven spots ; a rather promi- 

 nent submarginal fascia ; a marginal indistinct fascia. Hindwing 

 with the usual four round spots across the base ; a subcostal spot ; 

 a spot posterior to the last in the middle of the cell ; a large spot 

 posterior to the latter ; an elongated spot at the end of the cell ; 

 a small spot posterior to the latter ; the discal band much dislocated, 

 the two anteriormost spots well separated and shifted inwardly from 

 the four spots which follow, these again are partially dislocated from 

 the next spot, which is an elongated one, the latter again quite 

 separated from the last quadrate spot of the discal band which is placed 

 on the abdominal margin j a rather prominent lunulated submarginal 

 band ; a marginal series of oval dark spots ; the anal lobe very small, 

 black, crowned with a few metallic-green scales. 



Appears to be nearest to " Amblypodia " arvina, Hewitson,* from 

 Java, but of which I possess a rather small male specimen from the 

 Daunat Range, figured herewith on plate 0, fig. 25 ; differing from 

 Hewitson's figure and description in having the discal band of the 

 forewing on the underside continuous, instead of the penultimate spot 

 being projected inwardly ; and in possessing a small but distinct anal 

 lobe a feature which appears to be entirely absent from A. arvina. 

 Except in its superior size, discal band slightly differing, and presence 

 of an anal lobe, A, aboe seems to be identical with A. arvina. 



Described from a single example in my collection.

Habitat : Daunat Range and Ataran Valley, Tenasserim, Burma. 



Expanse : $, $ , 1*7 inches. 



Description : Male. Upperside, both wings rich shining deep 

 blue, distinctly turning to purple in some lights. Forewing with the 

 costa up to the costal nervure, the apex widely, the outer margin 

 somewhat widely and decreasingly black, the inner edge of this black 

 area is irregular as it is penetrated by the blue ground-colour beyond 

 the end of the discoidal cell and again towards the apex of the wing.
