into spots by black lines which border the veins, and form two very 

 irregular lines crossing the wing; the two cells forming the outer half 

 of the subcosto-median interspaces are paler than the others ; the 

 outer of the two transverse black lines starts from the upper subcos- 

 tal nervule, below the middle of the ferruginous spot, and passes in a 

 series of very deep curves in the interspaces, the convex side out- 

 ward, to the internal nervure near its extremity. The general direc- 

 tion of the line is at first outward, nearly parallel to the lower median 

 nervule, and afterward at right angles to it, bending in the subcosto- 

 median interspace ; in the medio-submedian interspace there are two 

 such curves or loops ; that in the upper median interspace is small 

 and very deep; the inner of the two black lines runs subparallel to 

 the first, but follows the nervures more closely ; first accompanying the 

 subcostal nervure it crosses the subcosto-median interspace at the 

 divarication of the lowest median nervule, and in the medio-subme- 

 dian interspace there are two curves, as in the outer line, but in op- 

 posite direction, meeting the outer line at its termination on the 

 internal nervure, forming a circular ochre spot on the last interspace. 



Body above black, with dusky hairs on the abdomen, and olive 

 brown hairs^on the thorax; hairs beneath and at tip of abdomen 

 ochraceous brown. Hairs of palpi and legs ruddy brownish.' An- 

 tennae testaceous, above banded with brown and white ; club black- 

 ish, tipped slightly with brown. Expanse of wings, 45 mm.

Agriades Aquilo (Boisd.). 



Above glossy brown tinged with casrulean, especially in the male, 

 faintly marked with pale cserulean, especially in the female. Fore 

 wings: Male glossy brown tinged delicately with eserulean, which is 

 occasionally more distinct in a broad transverse band next the outer 

 border ; the outer border itself with the tip of the costal border is 

 black, and is bordered to a greater or less extent with a dark brown 

 band outside the cterulean band ; the tip of the cell is marked very 

 faintly with black ; fringe dull white. Female glossy brown, sometimes 

 tinged slightly with caerulean, especially near the base and along tthe 

 inner border ; external border of the wing with the dark markings of 

 the male ; besides, there are two transverse rows of casrulean spots in 

 the interspaces, generally pretty distinct, but at other times quite 

 faint. The outer row extends across the whole wing, is seated upon 

 the brown marginal band, and has the inner edges of the spots
