d ? . Bof/'/ as in J'J. lube, nppersicle of abdomen varying from giovisli white to 

 olivaceous black ; posterior jiart of metasteruum black. 



^Vings, upperside : purplish black, the greater part occupied by a very broad, 



yellowish white — iu live specimens probably more greenish white— discal band. 



Forewing : discal band about as wide above as below, a very little broader posteriorly 

 than below, the edge of the band of the underside shining through, extending basad 

 to the points of origin of M' and M-; base of wing and basal two-thirds of cell with 

 a bluish tint, cell often partly scaled white posteriorly ; band 14 to 16 mm. wide 

 behind M' in <?, a little broader in ? ; its outer edge nearly straight, oblique, 

 sometimes slightly convex, in some individuals slightly concave between veins ; 



discal spot R' — R^ at least li mm. long in i, larger in ? than <?. Hind wing : 



discal band extended basad to origin of R', but base of wing and abdominal fold 

 also scaled white, the latter with a brown patch of variable size beyond apex 

 of SM^ ; outer edge of band almost parallel to outer margin (taken as a whole), 

 crossing R' far beyond bent of the vein, bordered with a thin band of bluish white 

 scaling up to R' (seldom SC"), this scaling more or less concave between veins, 

 sometimes extended along veins to admarginal spots ; black border of wing varying 

 iu width, not more than 6 mm. wide at C, either entire or (more rarely) broken up 

 into patches, the proximal portions of these patches often not wider than the 

 yellow admarginal spots ; white submarginal spots sometimes minute, heaviest in 

 the sj^ecimens with very wide band ; admarginal spots clearly marked, yellow, the 

 anal one scarcely or not paler than the others ; spots R' — M- generally shorter than 

 the others, spots C — SC" often absent; tails with jjale blue streaks, upper tail longer 

 than second. 



Underside : base of both wings, costal region of fore-, and abdominal region of 

 hindwiug pinkish white, slightly viuaceous ; interspace between submedian and 

 median lines of bars ferrugin(jus chestnut, this band prolonged on forewing across 

 D' to median bar R' — R- and discal bar R- — R^, filling up the cellules R' — R' as far 

 as those bars, and also produced on hiudwing along hinderside of M^ to median bar 



M- — (SM'). Forewing: one or no dot in cell, cell-bar approaching disco-cellular 



bar with upper end or somewhat abbreviated ; discal band not extending across R^ 

 in either sex, its outer edge as above ; postdisco-submarginal rcniform spots thin, 

 but very clearly marked, owing to the interspace between them and the discal bars, 

 as well as the scaling at the outside of the spots being nearly white, the spots 

 appearing to be situated in a narrow, almost white, band, marginal border dark 

 tawny olive, about 4 mm. broad at R' ; black discal bar behind SM- about 3 mm. 

 from tip of SM'-, mostly rather clearly marked, sometimes patch-like, no white 



scaling between it and internal angle of wing. Hindwitig : upper submedian bar 



situated upon praecostal spur ; white discal band separated from black discal 

 luniform bars by a thin, ferruginous or blackish brown interspace, which is barely
