S. The veins of the forewing above are less obviously whitish than in egens 

 irulica, the fuscous streaks between the veins more pronounced and ou the underside 

 often more extended. The black spots of the hindwing below are large ; the anal 

 one is apparently always present aud much larger than in Indian egens ; there are 

 always fuscous submarginal streaks marked, whicli are sometimes very heavy and 

 appear on the upperside as well. Behind the apex of the ceU of the forewing, 

 above, there appears often a pale patch which reminds one of the outer pale patch 

 of A. ausfnd/.t and orbona. 



? . Forewing less bright yellow than in eijie/is indica, the veins less white ; in 

 one ? from N. Borneo there are fuscous streaks lietween the veins both on upper- 

 and underside, also in the marginal region of the underside of the hindwing. The 

 spot beyoud vein 2 of the hindwing below is present in all om females, but the anal 

 one is absent from one individual.

There occur ou Celebes at the same time and in the same district two 

 aberrational forms, one resembling closely the preceding subspecies from Borneo, 

 the other coming near the subspecies from the lesser Sunda Islands. 



(J. Agrees with the S of egens nebulosa, but the posterior sjwts of the hind- 

 wing below arc very small, the anal oue often absent (type) ; hindwing not fuscous 

 in marginal region. 



?. Differs from that sex of nebulosa in the spots of the underside bemg 

 smaller and the two posterior ones of the hindwing being absent ; no fuscons streaks 

 on the hindwing. •
