Kina Balu ( Whitehead). 



Mr. Grose Smith states that this species is nearest to S. cinesia. 

 Hew., and S. maneia. Hew. The type is in Mr. Whitehead's col- 

 lectioa. I have not seen a specimen, but it would appear to be 

 quite distinct. (S'. cineas, Hew., and S. maneia, Hew., are, how- 

 ever, not allied to each other.

 fig. 20 (1863). 



2 . Allied to B. cinesia but smaller ; upperside with the white 

 band rather narrower and divided by brown nervules. Underside 

 ochreous yellow, darker and richer in colour, the inner black band 

 on the hind wing narrower and not so much waved ; the outer 

 black band also is straighter and is without the distinct black 

 tooth which is so conspicuous in B. cinesia. Middle tail consider- 

 ably longer. 



Expanse 1-p^^ inch. 



Elopura {Fryer) (Mus, Bruce); Labuan {Waterstr.). 



The specimen described above was taken by Mr. Pryer in March 

 and agrees exactly with Hevvitson's figure, no. 20, plate xii., which, 

 now that we have the correct female of his B. cinesia, requires a 

 name. 



B. hewitsonii should be easily distinguished from B. cinesia on 

 the upperside by the white band on the hind wing being crossed 

 by brown nervules. 



The male is unknown. 



Dr. Staudinger has sent me two females, and Mr. H. Grose 

 Smith possesses one specimen, also a female.

cJ . Upperside — fore wing dark purplish blue, outer margin 

 narrowly and evenly black, costal margin very narrowly black ; 

 cUia black. Hind v^iug dark purplish blue, costal and outer margin 

 down to third median nervule narrowly and evenly black ; anal 

 third, including tails, cream-white, with a black band beyond its 

 middle divided by the nervules, extending from the second median 

 nervule at the point at which the wing is dentated to the lobe, 

 the inner edge of the white area being sinuous ; cilia along costal 

 mai'gin and apex pale yellowish, rest of wing white. Costal fold 

 bluish grey. Underside pale brown, darker towards apex and 

 outer margin of fore wing, palest towards anal angle of hind wing ; 

 a faint wavy dark line in fore wing beyond the middle, commoucing
