¢. Upperside: both wings bright purplish blue, rather deep in 
tone ; primaries with very narrow black costa and broad black 
outer margins; secondaries with broad black borders of almost 
equal width all round ; abdominal fold dark grey ; no tail. Under- 
side: both wings dirty brown, with very slightly darker spots 
palely edged. Primaries with all the markings very obscure ; three 
increasing cell-spots, the third the most obscure, with a trace of a 
small one below: transverse catenulated band composed of five 
spots, the first on the discoidal nervure, the upper three are very 
oblique outwardly, the fourth is shifted decidedly inwards, and 
the fifth outwards ; submarginal row exceedingly indistinct ; sub- 
median area pale. Secondaries with pattern distinct ; four basal 
spots, the second and fourth shifted inwards, followed by three 
larger spots below each other, the two lower ones being near 
together ; cell closed by a large spot, below which is another small 
one: transverse catenulated band composed of eight spots, the 
upper two distinct from the others but not disconnected, the 
second spot is shifted well outwards, the third right out again, 
the fourth rather further out still, fifth inwards, small, sixth 
outwards; seventh angular spot right inwards(sometimes dislocated), 
eighth almost confluent with it ; submarginal band indefinite ; anal 
area with two dark spots, over which are imposed bluish or bluish- 
green metallic scales. 
Q. Upperside: both wings of paler blue than the male, with 
short broad black costa, very broad outer margin, and excessively 
broad apical area; secondaries with very broad black borders all 
round, the costa being the broadest. Underside precisely as the 
male in every respect. 
This species, with A. waterstradti, will come between A. metamuta, 
Hew., and A. hypomuta, Hew. It can readily be distinguished from 
the former in that the colour of both the wings is the same without 
the purple gloss, and darker altogether than the colour of the 
hind wings of that species; the borders are also narrower than in 
A. metamuta; whilst the bluer colour and the broad borders separate 
it from A.hypomuta. From A. waterstradti it differs in being a smaller 
insect with broader borders and of a deeper and more purple-blue. 
I have two specimens, kindly lent me by Herr Ribbe, from Malacca, 
which, though larger than Bornean specimens, yet cannot be 
referred to anything but this insect.
