Amblypodia agesilaus, Staudinger, Iris, Vol. Il. p. 127, 
Taf. I. fig. 16 (nec 17) (1889). 
Kuching and Quop (Sar. Mus.). 
Distribution: Malaya—Malay Peninsula, Nias Island, Su- 
matra, Palawan and Mindanao. 
Two Sarawak examples have the costal spot of the hind- 
wings very much reduced, suggesting a transition to the next 
species (A. catori) which is characterized by the complete 
absence of this costal spot. 
But for the differences in genitalia recorded by Bethune- 
| Baker I should be inclined to regard catori as a variety only 
| of agesilaus.

Roy. As, Scc No. 35. p. 34. 1901. 
2. Bethune-Baker gives Pulo Laut as a habitat for this species, but he 
describes this locality as ‘a small island off New Guinea’’ probably a mistake 
for the well known island of Pulo Laut off the South-East coast of Borneo.
