10. Elymnias godferyi. (Tab. XXXIX., fig. 6 s .) 



F.bjmmaa Gadfmji, Distant, Ann. & Mag, Nut. Hiat. ser. 5, vol, xii. p. B51 (1888), 



Female. Allied to E. rasudera, Moore,* but differing above by the much paler colouring of the wings, 

 the fuscous shadings in the Indian species being replaced by bluish ; the anterior winga are greyish-white, 

 shaded with bluish, which become darker beyond the cell; a broad outer marginal dull bluish black fascia, 

 widest at apes ; nervtires and nervules dark bluish, the median nervules and submedian nervure more or 

 less margined with dark bluish ; posterior wings as in E* ta*udt>ra f but the markings bluish and the outer 

 margin very broad at anal angle. Wings beneath as in £7. vasttdeva, but the dark mottled markings much 

 smaller and closer together ; anterior wings with two small submarginal oce Hated spots (black with greyish 

 centres), divided by the lower disco id al ncrvule; posterior wings with eight similar submarginal spots, the 

 two uppermost largest, the first between and near the bases of the subcostal nervules, the second above the 

 discoidal nervule, and the remaining spots following regularly between the nervules — two between the lower 

 median nervule and suhmedian nervure ; the red basal colouring of the posterior wings occupies the largest 

 portion of the cell, and extends to the base of the abdominal margin; the yellow space does not extend 

 from the abdominal margin to the upper median nervule, as in P. vasudera, but terminates suddenly at 

 the second median nervule. 



Exp. wings, S , 58 raillim. ; ? , 70 millim. 



Hab. — Malay Peninsula ; Sungei Ujong (Godfery — coll, Disfc,). — Borneo ; Snndakan (Fryer — coll, Diet,). 



Since describing this species, from a female specimen sent home by Capt. Godfery, I have 

 examined male specimens which were captured in North Borneo by Mr. Fryer. These differ 

 from the female by their smaller size, their darker colouring above, and by the smaller and 

 less vivid expanse of the red and yellow shadings to the under surface of the posterior wings. 



Capt. Godfery caught the species " hovering with somewhat feeble flight over the high 

 banks separating the road from the adjacent forest." 



Subfam. NYMPH ALIN.E.— Group MORPHINA (mttm t p. 67). 

 Genus AMATHUSIA {antta, p. 70), 



1. Amathusia phidippus {antm t p, 70). 



Several specimens of a variety of this species have been sent home by Herr Kiinstler 

 from Perak, in which on the under surface of the wings the outer dark fascia is— on the 

 anterior wings — somewhat narrowed and its outer margin broken and scalloped ; the basal dark 

 fsmtim are also narrowed, and therefore appear further apart. f 



Typical examples of the species are also plentiful in Perak, and I can And no reliable 

 character to differentiate this form as a distinct species, 



2, Amathusia ditucida. (Tab. XXXVIII., fig, 7

Male. Wings above very dark ckocolate-brown ; anterior wings with a broad and inwardly crescentic 

 subapical resplendent pale violaceous fascia, commencing on costa, but not reaching outer margin, and 

 inwardly occupying nearly apical half of cell ; posterior wings with an evanescent violaceous outer margin, 

 the abdominal area nalc brownish, and with two small and obscure dark spots on the caudate prolongation.
