Race glaucescens, de Niceville. — tf . Upperside plumbeous or 

 glaucous, Fore and hind wings crossed by somewhat obscure and, 

 in portions, more or less obsolescent subbasal, discal, postdiscal and 

 subterminal sinuous dark brown lines, and a broad incomplete 

 violaceous band between the discal and postdiscal transverse lines ; 

 this band on the fore w T ing is broadly interrupted between inter- 

 spaces 3 and 5 by an intervening extension of the ground-colour 

 joining the basal and terminal glaucous areas, and on the hind wing 

 it is extended diffusely inwards across the discal dark line towards 

 the base of the wing, the discal dark line crossing it more or less 

 obliquely. Underside: ground-colour pale lilacine white, irrorated 

 with minute slender brown striae. Eore and hind wings crossed 

 by subbasal, discal, postdiscal and subterminal lines, the last very- 

 slender, sinuous and more or less obsolescent. Antennae, head, 

 thorax and abdomen pale lilacine white. — $ . Resembles the $ of 

 L. castelnaui, but differs as follows : — ■ Upperside : ground-colour a 

 paler brighter ochraceous, the irroration of brown striae more 

 sparse and the striae more minute ; the shading on the basal half 

 of the fore wing extended between veins 3 and 6 to the postdiscal 

 line as in L. castelnaui, but entirely of a pale tint of russet, not 

 brown. On the hind wing there is a broad discal band, but not 

 clearly defined, generally of the same shade of ochraceous as the 

 rest of the wing. Underside : ground-colour pale yellow, very 

 sparsely irrorated by minute transverse chestnut-brown striae. 

 Eore and hind wings crossed by slender subbasal, discal, post- 

 discal and subterminal chestnut-brown lines ; the last, as in 

 L. castelnaui $ , very sinuous. Antennae pale brown ringed with 

 ochraceous ; head, thorax and abdomen reddish brown ; beneath, 

 the palpi, thorax and abdomen pale ochraceous. 



Exp. d $ 49-55 mm. (1-95-2-19").

Race andamanensis, de Niceville. — <$ $ . Very similar to 

 L. glaucescens, but differs as follows : — cf . Upperside : ground- 

 colour deep indigo-blue, almost black between the subbasal and 

 discal dark lines on the fore wing and between veins 3 and 5 in 

 the extension of the dark colour to the postdiscal transverse line ; 

 the apex and a narrow sinuous subterminal band on the fore wing 

 black ; a discal broad band as in L. glaucescens but pale blue, not 

 violaceous. Hind wing with a very broad subterminal velvety 

 black band. Cilia conspicuously white. Underside purplish w T hite, 

 densely irrorated with transverse black striae, and shaded with 

 black ; the usual subbasal, discal, postdiscal and subterminal 

 slender sinuous transverse lines black. Antennae, head, thorax
