two black dots instead of one, a character observed but in very few specimens of 

 E. hcbe from other localities ; the underside of tlie palpi and the npperside of the 

 abdomen are whiter in colour than in K. hehe fallax.

c? ?. Head above, pronotnm and tegulae olive-bistre, with white dots as in 

 athamas : mesonotnm olive, greyish white behind, more white in ? than in S ; 

 metanotum almost white ; npperside of abdomen white or whitish pearl-grey. 

 Palpi above, femora and anterior tibia brownish black ; nuderside of palpi, middle 

 of pro- and mesosternnm, middle and hinder tibiae and all tarsi bnff-colour, the 

 palpi indistinctly edged with white ; sterna dark russet, blackish nnder the femora ; 

 underside of abdomen varying in i from fawn-colonr to isabella-colour, blackish 

 brown in ? . 



(?. Wi/iffg above pnrplish black, the greater jiart occupied by a white or 



yellowish white discal area. Forewing : discal area at SM- 4 or 5 mm. distant 



from base : it does not qnite reach the base of M", while it entirely fills np the 

 angle between M' and R^ ; the base of the wing overshaded with white scaling 

 which occnpies also the posterior portion of the cell ; this scaling has a bluish 

 appearance as it forms the cover of black scales ; its density varies much indi- 

 vidually, the greater part of the cell being sometimes white, while in other 

 examples there are scarcely any white scales in the cell ; outer edge of white area 

 obliquely sinuate between W and M\ sinuate between M' and M-, M- and SM- ; 

 there is always white scaling at outer edge of area at and between M' and SM-, 

 especially npon and behind the latter nervnle, this white scaling often almost 

 reaching internal angle ; discal spot W — R- slightly var3'ing in size, 10 to 11 mm. 



distant from upper angle of cell ; no snbmarginal dot.- Hindwing, at least 



two-thirds yellowish white ; basal area np to base of R^ and abdominal fold milky 

 white, the latter often clay-colour or drab beyond middle ; outer edge of discal area 

 irregularly concave between costal margin and R^, with a bluish or greenish tint 

 from R' to SM- ; in the specimens with the white scaling restricted there appear 

 some separate pale bluish white lunules outside the discal area between R- and 

 abdominal margin, in most cases these lunules are entirely merged together with 

 the discal area, the white scaling being much extended ; mostly the white scaling 

 extends along veins R' and R^, connecting the admarginal spots with the discal 

 area ; it extends often also along R' and M' to near edge of wing : in such cases 

 the margini-submarginal black area is reduced to a patch of variable size occnpying 

 the upper angle of the wing, and a series of more or less rounded, partly confluent, 

 black spots which include the white snbmarginal spots, and a black marginal line 

 which is heaviest between the tails ; admarginal spots SC'-' — R' transverse, mostly 

 heavy, conspicuous, white, seldom slightly tawny, especially often the last of the 

 three, always clearer marked than the admarginal spots R' — M- ; admarginal spot 

 C — SC- seldom indicated ; tails black, sometimes slightly metallic, in the wliitisli 

 specimens witli pale blue scales. 



Underside : russet fawn-colour, glossy in side light, except a darker marginal 

 band of forewing ; discal area wliite witli a faint tint of yellowish green ; interspace
