This is an Australian species erroneously recorded Hewdtson as from India. His name take?

Yei" 3 ^ feAv examples of this rare Lycaenid are yet knoAAm. Three of the four males taken in S. 
Wales differ markedly from the Victorian males, so tAvo races are definitely established, and others may 
be expected as more material becomes available. Tavo specimens only have so far been taken in 
Queensland, one of Avliich is the type female and the other a diminutiA'e male from Cape York. The 
type female is someAAdiat larger, but otherwise scarcely differs from the N. S. Wales females.

The description of the male is drawn from three sj^ecimens from Pambula and Newcastle. Our 
fourth male (fig. 240) is from Sydney and is without the basal coppery suffusion, but (though a worn 
example) it is A'ery much darker than the males of the Victorian race cyrilus. Our fifth male ]S a 
diminutive specimen from Cape York, of a pale dull grey-brown colour above, and with marhng? 
beneath unusually broad. The descrii:)tion of the female is drawn from the type.
