72 CAMPTOLOPHIA; HELICOPAGE; ALLOEOPAGE. By L. B. Prout. 
the basal patch and the very broad brown outer band. Darjeeling (loc. typ.), Assam. Hainan and Formosa; rare. 
gigantea. A. gigantea Btlr. (= discisticta Prout). $ closely similar to diver sif or mis (9 f) but with the tail at the 
3rd radial of the hindwing slightly better developed, the markings ochreous-brown, not grey-brown, the distal 
hands not quite so extended, not (as in diver sif ormis) confluent with central band at hinclmargin of forewing. 
Basal patch of forewing in both sexes smaller, less oblique-edged. The <$, which I described as a separate 
species, is very dissimilar, recalling a large, very darkly marked laqueifera (9 h), but with a concise dark cell- 
solaria. dot on each wing. — ab. solaria Swinh. has the markings rather brighter reddish and narrower, the cell-dots 
minute and weak. The species is known from Java (type), Sumatra, Sarawak, Singapore and Assam. 
punctata. A. punctata Warr. Only the type is known, a $ from Darnmer Island, its taxonomic position uncertain. 
Size of a small lycaenaria, colour similar, with a similar apical spot. Forewing with termen regularly rounded, 
hindwing with the tail quite short, bearing a small red spot. Otherwise the markings consist only of very small 
red-brown or purple-brown spots, the antemedian and postmedian series very oblique outward from the costa, 
bent respectively at posterior corner of cell and at 2nd and 3rd radials, the terminal rather darker, more 
punctiform. 
exquisita. A. exquisita Warr. Also only known from a single $. Like laqueifera (9 f) but considerably larger, 
the abdomen apparently without the crests, predominantly pink or violet dorsally, with central green spots. 
Markings more sharply expressed than in that species, an elegant blend of different shades of red-brown, pale 
violet and grey. Obi.

laqueifera. A. laqueifera Prout (9 h). A small species, with well-developed crests, though not so strong as in the 
vernifera. two following. Hindtibia of <$ dilated, with strong hair-pencil and short terminal process. — ab. vernifera 
ab. nov. has the distal three-fifths of the hindwing green, marked with zigzag lines in place of the continuous 
dark cloud of the type-form. The type was from Digboi, Upper Assam, but most of the known examples come 
from the Andamans, Malaya, Java, Borneo or Hainan. 
cristifera. A. cristifera Walk. (9 g), on account of its very highly-developed abdominal crests, was made the type 
of a separate genus, Lophochlora Warr. The thorax also shows a posterior crest. Further distinguishable from 
laqueifera by the blackish and rather more elongate hindwing, etc. Sarawak and Selangor. 
vicina. A. vicina Bastelb. (9 g). Rather larger than cristifera, the wings not quite so markedly angled, the 
black-brown markings much extended on the forewing, etc. Founded on a from S. E. Sumatra. 
27. Genus: Camptolophia Warr. 
Perhaps another highly crested section of Agathia, differing chiefly in the more obliquely protuberant 
face, the (very shortly) pectinate antenna and in the coloration and markings. Hindtibia not or scarcety 
dilated. Only one species is known and this is extremely rare. 
marmorata. C. marmorata Warr. (9g). Unmistakable through its grey-green ground-colour and marbled outer 
area. Underside whitish, the forewing with two blackish subterminal spots, the hindwing with a broad sub- 
terminal band. Khasis. 
28. Genus: Helicopage Warr. 
Body and legs more slender than in the preceding genera. Palpus long, with the terminal joint, even 
in the <J, strongly elongate. Antenna of the $ shortly pectinate, with the apex simple. Wings somewhat more 
thinly scaled than in Agathia, the retinaculum a long, tough spiral, attached only close to the base. Another 
single-species genus. 
■u n di- H. hirundinalis Warr. (9 g). Very constant and not to be confused with any other species. The is 
nalis. fairly common in the Khasis, rare in Sikkim. 
29. Genus : Alloeopage Prout. 
Distinct from all the other genera of the group in having the 2nd subcostal of the forewing stalked 
with the 1st instead of with the 3rd—5th. Further differs from Helicopage in having the retinaculum more 
normal, the distal margins much more weakly crenulate, and other details of structure. The single species 
has a moderately wide distribution in the Papuan subregion and shows, in addition to the wide sexual dimorph¬ 
ism, some interesting geographical variation.
