between the snbmedian and median lines of bars of botli wings, tlic prolongation of 

 this band-like interspace along M- of the hindwing, and the interspace between 



discal area of forewing and R' chestnut. Forewing : cell with one or no dot, the 



second always absent, cell-bar reaching M generall}' about 1 mm. before origin of 

 M-, the same in jmsition as in the Sonth Indian E. at/iamas (i(iritriiii< f. temp. 

 agraiius, its upper end being at least 2 mm. distant from the discocellnlar spot^ 

 mostly the npper portion of the bar obliterated ; sometimes the cell-dot fused with 

 the bar, the latter being in such cases more basal than nsual ; discal bar M' — M- 

 reaching M before origin of M', bar R' — M' close to D', following the curve of 

 W, very often pushed basad beyond D' into the cell where it appears as a 

 longitudinal line along D', a remnant only, so to speak, of the bar being left in tjie 

 angle D* — M' ; median bar R^ — R' seldom ij^nite absent, sometimes bordered white 

 distally, 2i to 3i mm. distant from discocellnlar bar ; discal area varying in width 

 at M- from 1 1 to 14 mm., partition R^ — M' obliquely sinuate outwardly between R' and 

 fold R^ — J[', the followiug partition also generally sinuate, but not always so regularly 

 as partition M' — SM- ; the postdical and submarginal arched bars, which are as in 

 a<^«»2as. joined together to form postdisco-snbmarginal reniform spots with pale 

 centres, are very thin, the proximal border lines (postdiscal bars) of the reniform 



spots R' — M-' as thin and as black as the distal border lines (submarginal bars). 



Hindwing : costal snbmedian bar along praecostal vein, generally crossing this vein 

 before its end, often very thin ; discal area 11 to 10 mm. broad at costal edge of 

 wing, more than half as wide again as the dark marginal area, outer edge of the 

 area crossing R^ at or beyond the bent of this vein, and M- at a distance of 

 o to 7^ mm. from the origin of M' ; brownish red postdiscal luniform spots as in 

 athamas ; spot R' — M' with an especially heavy, white, proximal lunule ; a series 

 of white and another of black submarginal dots, followed by ochraceous admarginal, 

 transverse spots, of which spots R^ — M- are generally very feebly marked. 



S. Larger than c?, the white scaling more extended, outer edge of forewing 

 less concave, hindwing more rounded, less deeply concave between tails ; discal 

 band on underside Hi to 17 mm. broad at M- of forewing, 15 to 17 mm. at costal 

 margin of hindwing. 



Length of forewing : J, 31 to 36 mm. 

 „ „ ? , 38 to 40 mm. 



Hub. Assam ; Burma ; Malay Peninsula ; Sumatra ; Nias ; Natuna Islands ; 

 Borneo ; Java (and Bali ?). 



Early stages unknown ; most likely very similar to those of K. fil/itimas. 



In habits apparently not different from athamas. 



A very remarkable feature of the pattern of this species is the variable position 

 of the median bar R' — M' of the forewing below, inasmuch as this bar in at least 

 half the number of individuals is, in consequence of the large development of the 

 discal band, partly or totally pushed from its normal place between R^ and M' 

 into the cell, thus standing partly or totally along the costal instead of the discal 

 side of M and D^. Sometimes this cellular line is about 1 mm. distant from M resp. 

 D*, and the interspace between the black line and those veins is filled np with white 

 scaling. In JJ. atliamas and hcbe the bar never enters the cell, while we have found 

 it situated in the cell in one specimen of K.jali/sus. 



The geographical forms of E. moori run all very close ; the most obviously 

 different form is that described under e from Assam and Bnrma.
