prominent arc a transverse one at end of cell, and a transverse waved series of rounded ones ; all these 

 spots are margined "with greyish. Body and legs more or less concolorous with wings. 



Female, " TJpperside pale glossy blue; cilia white, streaked with brown; forewing with a broad 

 dusky black band along the costa and exterior margin ; ;t pal.rh b-Jow the apex, a diacocellular spot, 

 and a lower diseal spot also black ; a short white streak at posterior angle ; hindwing broadly dusky black 

 along anterior margin ; the exterior margin with a series of black spots bordered with bluish white and an 

 inner dusky line*" 



Wings beneath marked as in male, hut the ground colour paler. 



Exp. wings, 6* , 88 millim. ; 2 , 3G millim. 



Hab. — Malay Peninsula; Penang (Roberts — Moore-, Biggs — coll. List.). 



When I redescribod this species 1 possessed the male sex only, which is very thssiniilar 

 to the female, which was described and figured by Mr. Moore (without mentioning the sex) 

 under the name of a new genus. Now, however, that I possess both sexes the difficulty is 

 solved, and Mr. Moore's proposed genus Ntphtutda will probably accompany my specific name 

 L. eetkiops into the limbo of synonymic ibrgetfulness. 



The peculiarity of L. tesssllata is in its Ethiopian appearance, its most closely allied 

 species being found in the West African JL lanjdas, Cram. 



Group APHNAEIA (<mfca, p. 233). 

 Genus CATAPiECILMA {cmtea l p. 234).

" Upper-side : crcrulean-bluc with all the margins broadly browu. Posterior wing with two slender tails, 

 the outer margin rufous, broadest near the anal an^h-, where it is bordered above and below with silver." 



" Under-side: rufous. Both wings undulated throughout with black, marked by several irregular 

 black spots, and by numerous small silvery-blue spots, some of which form two sub-marginal bands. 1 * 



Exp. wings, " 1A inch," 



Hah. — Malay Peninsula; Malacca (Wallace—coll. Hewits.). 



I place this species with considerable hesitation in the genus Gutapncilma. It is only 

 known to me by the type specimen in the He wit soman collection, of which a figure is here 

 given, and I am therefore unable to take liberties with the specimen for the purpose of 

 studying the neuration. Again, the specimen possesses— as described — only two slender 

 tail-like appendages ; and if a third has not been mutilated, this character is divergent from 

 Catapmilma. 



This species having not hitherto been figured, Mr. de Niceville has wrongly identified 

 a Sikkim species* as conspecilic with it. The Sikkini species is therefore undescribed and 

 requires a distinctive name. 



Genus HORAGA (to follow Catap^cilma). 



HoraifUi Moore, Lep, Ceyh vol. i. p. 08 (1881). 



This genus is allied to Catapwcilma by the character of the posterior wings, which possess 

 three slender tail-like appendages, and also by the anterior wings having three subcostal 

 nervines only.
