is shifted slightly inwards, fourth outwards, fifth angular spot in- 

 wards and conHuent with the eighth spot ; submarginal row very 

 indistinct ; two or three dark spots at the anal area superimposed 

 by unusually blue submetallic scales. 



This specieswill come between ^.irot/oH, Dist.,and^.(lM»-ra,Hew.; 

 it is nearest to the latter in the underside colour, but to the former 

 in the pattern. I have one specimen before me from S.B. Borneo in 

 which the pattern is much more distinct than in the other two from 

 Eina Balu and Malacca.

c? . Upperside : both wings dark bluish purple, in some lights 

 very dull violet, and with a side light having that lustrous brown 

 gloss which appears not uncommon in the Bornean Arltopalce ; 

 primaries with narrow black costa and rather broader outer margin ; 

 secondaries with broad brown costa and narrow blackish scolloped 

 outer margins : abdominal fold greyish. The lower median nervule 

 is produced into a longish tooth-like projection ; but after having 

 carefully examined it, I do not think it has ever been a tail. 

 Underside : both wings greyish ochreous brown, with distinct dark 

 spots and fascia edged with cream-colour. Primaries with three 

 increasing cell-spots, below the third are two spots in the nervule 

 interspaces, that touching the third spot being exceedingly small; 

 transverse maculate band composed of six subovate spots, that on 

 the costa being very small, the upper four are arched slightly out- 

 wards, the fifth inclined slightly inwards, and the sixth, ending on 

 the lower submedian nervule, inclined outwards ; submarginal row 

 indefinite, but distinct ; submedian area greyish ; subdiscal dark, 

 with a pale linear edging. Secondaries with four fair-sized spots 

 below each other, the third shifted slightly outwards, beyond these 

 are four larger spots similarly arranged ; cell closed by a large 

 subquadrate spot, below which are two other spots in the nervule 

 interspaces, the upper of these being minute and discernible by its 

 pale outer margin, the lower touches the third s])ot of the second 

 row of four : transverse maculate band composed of seven spots — a 

 pair (one above the other) on the costa, the lower one being the 

 larger, which touches the spot closing the cell ; the third spot is 

 shifted right outwards, its inner margin just touching the outer 

 margin of the second spot ; fourth spot shifted very slightly out- 

 wards but inwardly oblique ; fifth spot well inwards, sixth well 

 outwards ; seventh angular spot well inwards and terminating 

 just beyond the submedian nervure ; submarginal crescentic row 

 distinct, with its inner pale margin distinct from the costa to the 

 internal nervure ; three black spots at the anal area, with pale blue 

 metallic scales over them, these having a sharp lunular blacky 

 interior edging, which follows the line of the pale inner margin o| 

 the submarginal row.
