 Coll. Baggelaar. Mr. Rober has received several représentatives of the subspecies ^metaxa 

 Fruhst." from Sabang and the Lorentz River and one spécimen of the race turneri Butl. from 

 Doré. The spécimens which I hâve before me from Bivakeiland and Kloofbivak, near to 

 Sabang, belong to the subspecies turneri Butl. and the spécimens from N.W. New Guinea 

 resemble very much the figure of metaxa Fruhst in „Seitz" (plate 77, a). I think that the race 

 metaxa has only been found near Stephansort and Finschhafen. 



One of the différences between the pattern of the spécimens from Kloofbivak etc. and 

 that of metaxa is, that the white spot in the cell of the anterior wings is eut in two, which 

 has also happened with the anal spot.
