74 THE RHOPALOCERA COLLECTED BY THE THIRD NEW-GUINEA EXPEDITION. 



apex and outer-margin. The spécimens from Central New Guinea show the discal spots in 

 différent sizes and the other spots on the upperside in différent numbers. The female spécimen 

 is coloured like the maie ones, only the discal spot on the anterior wings and that on the 

 posterior ones is much larger. Moreover we observe a complète séries of marginal spots on 

 the anterior wings. On the underside there are also many différences, especially on the 

 anterior wings. I think this species in full évolution and differentiating the forms is not to 

 be done. If I must give names, I would say that the forms westwoodi Wall, and hewitsoni 

 Wall, are both represented with several transitional forms.

 Coll. Baggelaar. I hâve compared H. erylus Godt. from différent localities with H. pliorbas 

 from New Guinea and the morphological différences are distinctly visible. Felder writes that 

 the last part of the palpi is much longer than in other species, but that part is as long as 

 in erylus. The shape of the wings, colour and pattern are différent. Mr. FRUHSTORFER has 

 distinguished thèse species in his: „Ubersicht' der Lycaeniden" in Berl. Ent. Zeitschr. 56, 191 1,
