407. * Arrhopala auxesia, Hewitson. 
Hewitson. Kirby. Originally described from Sumatra, but we 
have not met with this fine species. A. auzea, de Niceville, from Java, 
is a local race of A. auxesia. 
408. Arrhopala buxtoni, Hewitson. 
Hewitson. Grose Smith. Staudinger. Distant. Originally des¬ 
cribed from Sumatra, where it is found at Selesseh. 
409. Arrhopala farquhart, Distant. 
Snellen as eumolphus. Hagen as eumolphus. Grose Smith as 
eumolphus. The A. eumolphus of Cramer was described from the Bengal 
Coast, so it appears best to retain that name for the Eastern Himalayan, 
Assamese, and Chittagong Hill Tracts form. Its female is the 
A. bupola of Hewitson. The female of A. farquhari is probably the 
A . maxwelli of Distant. Snellen suggests that A. atosia, Hewitson, is the 
female of the Sumatran form; in this I cannot agree with him, vide 
Butt. India, vol. iii, p. 242. I possess a long series of A. adonias , 
Hewitson, from Java from whence it was originally described. All 
my specimens appear to be females, and as the markings of the 
nnderside agree closely with those of A. eumolphus , A. farquhari , 
A. hellenore , Doherty, and A. horsjieldi , Pagenstecher, I am inclined to 
believe that its male is a green species which does not appear to differ 
at all from the same sex of A. farquhari, though the Javan female 
(true A adonias) is of quite a different shade of colour on the upper- 
side of both wings, being a pale silvery blue, to the deep purple colora¬ 
tion of the female of the true A. farquhari from Burma, the Malay 
Peninsula, Sumatra, and Borneo. In Sumatra A. farquhari is found 
at Bekantschan and in the Battak mountains. 
410. Arrhopala irogon, Distant. 
Originally described from Perak in the Malay Peninsula. Very 
rare in both sexes, but the female seems to be more often met with than 
the male. 
411. Arrhopala horsfieldi, Pagenstecher. 
Amblypodia horsfieldi, Pagenstecher, Jahr. des Nass. Yer. fur Naturk., vol. xliii, 
pp. 99, 106 (1890). 
Arhopala basiviridis, de Niceville, Journ. Bomb. Nat. Hist. Soc., vol. vi, p. 373, 
n. 21, pi. G, fig 22, male (1891). 
Originally described from East Java by Pagenstecher, and from the 
Malay Peninsula and Borneo by myself. In Sumatra it is found in the 
Battak mountains.
