male differs from L. subditus, Moore, in the whitish upperside, and in 

 the pale underside, heavily marked with white, with the orange area 

 smaller ; it resembles it in the submarginal band of black spots. L. 

 subditus is very close to L. amjphissa, Felder, from Amboina.

A local form of G. symethus. The white area above is large, ex- 

 tending furthest below the middle median vein ; there are no bluish 

 scales ; the upper median vein is swollen at its base. Hindwing all 

 dark, not bluish-grey as in symethus. Below nearly uniform pale brown, 

 a dark area crossing the end of the cell, surrounding the median vein 

 and its branches discally ; beyond this there is a whitish area from the 

 middle median vein to the hind-margin ; the transverse discal lunular 

 band only extends down to the middle median vein. Hindwing with 

 the discal lunules nearly joined, very distinctly marked, scarcely darker 

 than the ground-colour, edged with paler. Both wings have a submar- 

 ginal dark line edged inwardly with whitish, and containing a black 

 dot in each space. The underside is wholly without the sordid 

 irrorations found in G. symethus. 



The female has a little less white on the forewing above, and a 

 little more white below. The hindwing is acutely angled in the middle 

 and is unmarked above. 



Sumba, Sambawa. The Javan form (G. pandu, Horsf, ) may also be 

 distinct from Q. symethus.
