Show 1895.] MR. H. H. DRUCE ON BORNEAN LYCEENIDEE. 591 ARHOPALA OLINDA. Amblypodia olinda, Druce, P. Z. S. 1873, p. 354, pi. xxxiii. fig. 5, Amblypodia buxtoni, Hew. 111. Diurn. Lep., Lye. Supp. p. 22, pi. viii. tigs. 68, 69, $ (1878). Narathura buxtoni, Distant & Pryer, Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. ser. 5, vol. xix. p. 269 (1887). Sandakan (Pryer) ; Labuan (Low). On comparing the type (a female) of A. olinda with that of A. buxtoni, I find that they cannot be separated, and as Hewitson's species was described some five years later than Mr. Herbert Druce's, A. olinda is the name by which the insect should be known. The figure given in the P. Z. S. is not a good one, as it shows an equally broad brown marginal border to both wings; this, however, is not so, as in the fore wing the apex is rather broadly brown and in the hind wdng the blue area extends nearly to the outer margin. The type of A. olinda is now in Messrs. Godman and Salvin's collection. ARHOPALA CEECA. Amblypodia cceca, Hew. 111. Diurn. Lep., Lye. p. 14, pi. iv. fig. (1863).' Sarawak (Hew.). This species is known to me only by the type in the Hewitson collection. ARHOPALA AUREA. Amblypodia aurea, Hew. Cat. Lye. B. M. p. 8, pi. viii. figs. 88 (1862); Druce, P. Z. S. 1873, p. 353.

S.E. Borneo. I include this species here on the authority of Mr. Doherty, not having seen a specimen from Borneo. Messrs, Godman and Salvin possess examples from Malacca, Sumatra, and the Philippine Is. ARHOPALA HORSFIELDI. Amblypodia horsfieldi, Pagenstr. Beit. Lep. Faun. Malay. Arch. vi. p. 15 (1890).

Dr. Pagenstecher describes it from Eastern Java. |
