Wings above violaceous-blue, anterior wings with the costal, apical and outer areas fuscous (the last 

 two very broadly so), and containing a tfiscal whitish spot situate at about end of cell; posterior wings 

 with the costal and outer areas fuscous, a submargnial grey isli -white line and the tail -like appendages with 

 their apices greyish. Wings beneath pale oehraceous, both wings crossed by a discal greyish-white fascia, 

 broadest on anterior wings where it commences at a little beyond end of cell, and narrowing on posterior 

 wings below median nervule where it is recurved and continued upwards to abdominal margin as a 

 metaltic-^eenish fascia inwardly margined with blackish, and followed beneath by a similar fascia; a aeries

//. Intiki belongs to a group of species in which great similarity of colour and markings 

 is found. I have, however, carefully compared it with the other described species of the 

 genus, and in the shape of the white spot above and the width and pattern of the white fascia 

 beneath find sufficient characters to separate it. 



Genus DEUPADIA (mtea, p. 236). 

 1. Drupadia moorei (antat, p. 236). {Tab. XLIV., % 11, var.) 



A very small female variety of tiiis species is here figured, and, as previously stated 

 (antea, p. 237), the species varies very much in size ; this is, however, the smallest female 

 specimen examined, measuring in expanse only 20 millim. It is a Malaccan specimen, and is 

 in the collection of Br, Staudinger. 



Genus TAJUEIA (ante*, p. 244). 

 3. Tajuria relata {antea t p. 246). 



I have since examined a Malaccan male of this species, belonging to the collection of 

 Dr. Staiuhnger. The wings above are cerulean-blue ; anterior wings with the costal margin 

 greyish-brown, the apex broadly dark fuscous, this colour extending to near outer angle ;
