''Bab. Eureja mountains." {Lang, I. c.) 
Japanese specimens of L. cleobis are larger and lighter blue on the upper 
surface than the typical form, and the under surface is darker. Corean 
specimens are also larger than those from Amurland, but they agree with 
them in colour. 
Occurs at Gensan, Corea, in June and July, in the mountain districts of 
Central Japan, and is not uncommon in Amurland. 
Pryer does not mention this species and probably he had confused it 
with L. cegon, from which species, as also from L. argus, it may be distin- 
guished by its usually larger size and rounder wiugs, and by the males 
being far less suffused with blue.
