  This 
  species 
  is 
  closely 
  allied 
  to 
  the 
  preceding, 
  but 
  the 
  

   blue 
  on 
  the 
  upper 
  surface 
  of 
  the 
  hind 
  wing 
  is 
  more 
  

   extensive 
  and 
  of 
  a 
  much 
  lighter 
  hue 
  ; 
  the 
  ground 
  colour 
  

   of 
  the 
  hind 
  wing 
  below 
  is 
  considerably 
  blacker, 
  and 
  the 
  

   yellow, 
  which 
  is 
  so 
  distinct 
  on 
  H. 
  eucletus, 
  has 
  almost 
  

   entirely 
  disappeared.
