LEPIDOPTEROUS INSECTS. 
24. Amblypodia annulata. 
Amblypodia annulata, Felder, Lep. Amhoin. Sits. Acad. Wiss. Wien, 1S60. 
Upperside brown, slightly glossed with blue. 
Underside grey-brown ; the spots of the same colour, bordered with white. The spots near the base 
of the anterior wing, especially that which is at the end of the cell, large ; the transverse band broken at the 
middle, formed of six round spots, placed three and three; the lowest spots furthest from the margin; the last 
spot smaller than the others. Posterior wing crowded with spots : the transverse band formed of round spots 
in pairs : the anal angle with three black spots irrorated with blue. 
Exp. inch.

25. Amblypodia Antbore. 
Amblypodia iVnthore, Hewitson. Pl. III. (5* f. 21, 22. 
Upperside. Male. — Silvery light blue. Anterior wing with the outer half suffused with darker 
blue : the margins brown. 
Underside dark brown; the spots and bands crowded together, and bordered with white. The 
transverse band of the anterior wing, which is formed of six spots, is broken at the third spot, counting from 
the costal margin : the anal angle has two spots of silvery-blue parallel to each other. 
Female. — Like the male, except that the costal and outer margins are broadly black.

This may be A. Anthore of the Plate ; but it is impossible to determine, by description only, the nice distinctions 
which divide species so much alike as those of this genus. The insect from which Dr. Boisduval wrote his 
description was at the Museum of the Jardin des Plantes, but is not now in existence.

My reason for again figuring this species is to endeavour to rectify the unaccountable mistakes which have 
been made with regard to Cramer’s figure. It is one of the best in the book ; and yet Godart, when evidently 
describing A. Centaurus, refers it to Cramer’s Helius. Dr. Horsfield, in describing the species to which I have 
given the name of Aedias, refers it to Cramer’s Helius. 
The butterfly represented by figs. 29, 30, 31, stands in Dr. Boisduval’s collection as Helius of Cramer.
