Chliabia mimima, H. H. Druce. 



The specimena I referred to from N.E. Sumatra, P. Z. S. 1895, 

 p. 605, are I think, the O. tora, Kheil. 0. mimima is very close to 

 that species, but besides the less extensive blue area above, there is 

 a slight diiference on the underside, the large black spot on the 

 outer margin of the hind wing of C. tora being surrounded on all 

 sides except its outer edge with yellow, whilst G. mimima has this 

 yellow on its inner and anal sides only. 1 am inclined to believe 

 that the insect which Mr. de Niceville has described and figured as 

 the female of O. tora, Kheil ', is not that sex of C. tora but of 

 C. amabilis, de Nicev.^ 



We possess a female from N.E. Sumatra which on the under- 

 side is exactly like that of 0. tora d , and like tliat possesses a 

 small black spot on the costa of the fore wing and a large and a 

 small black spot on the costa of the hind wing. These spots are 

 distinctly shown in Herr Kheil's figure. On the upperside the 

 fore wing is dull brown, immaculate, and the costal half of the 

 hind wing is of the same colour, the anal half being dull greyish 

 white, with a marginal row of indistinct blackish spots between the 

 nervules increasing in size towards the anal angle, a black ante- 

 ciliary line inwardly bordered by a narrow white line ; cilia white. 

 Tails short as in male. 



The very worn female specimen referred to by Mr. de Nicevillei 

 {op. eit. p. 312), from Borneo, is doubtless that sex of the species I 

 have named G. phemis. Dr. Staudinger has sent me a male Javan 

 specimen of G. amabilis, which has the tails considerably longer 

 than are shown in Mr. de Niceville's figure.

Dr. Staudinger has received a single female specimen, which 

 differs from any Indian females I have seen by having a greater 

 area of white on the hind wing above and by the yellow on the 

 hind wing below being nearly all replaced by white ; the black 

 angular markings and spots towards the anal angle are larger and 

 more prominent, so it may possibly represent a different species, 

 but until the male is discovered it is impossible to be certain.

The name which I proposed must be sunk as a synonym.
