greenish fascia in evil, narrowest at hum-, and widem-d ami somewhat truncate near apex, and with the 

 following longitudinal fascia! of the same colour placed between the nervules : — the upper two are placed 

 above and below the first discoidal nervule, and are very faint and slender, with their apices broad and 

 macular ; the third above first median nervule is slender, but macular at both ends, and inwardly approaches 

 the disco-cellular fascia; the following three separated by the median nervules are broadest at base, 

 narrowing at apical portion, but macular at apex, and the last runs along the inner margin. Posterior wings 

 with similar longitudinal fascite as on upper wings, and which aiv also placed between the m.-mdos, but 

 are broken near then apiees, which thus appear as a submarginal series of spotB ; of these fascia the 

 inner two (placed on each side of the submedian nervure) are longest, and the upper two (placed on each 

 side of the discoidal nervule) ore the faintest ; there is also a very faint disco-cellular streak. 



Wings beneath dull greyish, suffused with fuscous, and mottled with dark strigje ; on anterior wings 

 these become more or less coniiuent and dark chocolate in colour, forming an irregular spot in cell, a larger 

 irregular spot or fascia at end of cell, and appearing very prominent towards outer mar gin ; on posterior 

 wings these darker shadings do not extend beyond basal half of wing, but again appear as a more or less 

 well-defined outer submarginal fascia. Body and legs more or less concolorous with wings. 



Female. Somewhat larger than the male, the fascine and spots of the upper surface being creamy in 

 line, and with the outer margins of Loth win^s distinctly and somewhat brightly eastaiieous. Beneath the 

 wings are much paler, and the numerous shadings are of like pattern but fainter impression,

The only specimen of this species which I have seen from the Malay Peninsula, and which 

 is here figured, is contained in the collection made in Province WeUesley by Mr. Saiier. 

 A Javan male specimen in my own collection is smaller, anil with the markings above more 

 decidedly green; tins character, however, is not constant, as Mr, Wallace writes,* "the Java 

 specimens (Cramer's types) agree very closely with those of Sumatra and Borneo in the 

 males."

}f;ilu. Anterior wings above purplish brown, with very strong bright blue reflections, which become 

 more Jixed and distinct on apical half, and with five pale blue elongate spots, of which the upper two are 

 longest, and are situate on each side of lower discoidal nervule ; the remaining three being much smaller, 

 and divided by the median nervules. The bluish reflection does not extend to the outer margin, which is 

 distinctly purplish brown. Posterior wings purplish brown, with bright bluish rolled ions, but less intense 

 than on a uteri or win^s. Wings beneath castaneous-brown, much mottled with paler strigie, which on 

 anterior wings form a more or less distinct subapical space, widest at eosta and narrowing downwards 

 beneath cell; space beneath third median nervule much paler; posterior wings with the basal portion to a
