(J. Mesonotnm more or less grey, becoming white behind ; mctanotum uuil 

 abdomen (c?) yellowi.sh white or nearly pure white, the latter seldom all white 

 beneath, bearing at least at base some black scaling, sometimes the underside of 

 abdomen more extended black than white ; in ? underside of abdomen black, with 

 edges of segments somewhat white — occasionally there is a vestigial white middle 

 line. 



]V//iffs, upperside : discal yellowish white area alwa3s e.xtended to base. 



Forewing : cell for the greater part yellowish white, bnt sometimes this colour 

 reduced to a broad streak along M that scarcely extends basad beyond M- ; yellowish 

 white area very oblique distally, at SM- only 5 or G mm. distant from edge of wing ; 

 detached discal spot R- — R^ very variable in size, sometimes joined along R' to the 

 dilated part of partition R^ — M' of discal area, the black streak behind this spot 

 along base of R' often overshaded with white scales ; postdiscal spot R- — R' more 

 basal than the others, often as close to discal spot R' — R- as to postdiscal one 

 R' — R-; last two postdiscal spots luniform, often fused together, spot (SM') — SM- 

 sometimes bluish, tliere is always a patch of whitish or bluish scales at internal 



margin close to internal angle, often fused with discal area. Hindwing : no black 



scaling at base ; disco-submarginal black band variable in width, as are the white 

 snbmarginal spots situated in it, the part proximal of the white submarginal sjiots 

 often not wider (or even narrower) than the jiart outside these spots, but also often 

 twice or three times as wide, the pale blue or olive buff lunules in this band mostly 

 separated from the discal area, but sometimes the posterior ones contiguous with it. 



Underside : Forewing, median bars SC" — R- often wanting, mostly vestigial, 

 seldom so well marked that they touch the veins : discal tawny olive band not 

 quite straight in most specimens, being generally somewhat curved distad between 



SC^ and W. Hindwing : discal tawny ochraceous band curved, almost parallel to 



outer margin (taken as a whole) ; disco-postdiscal luniform spots including either 

 only whitish blue lunules, or, besides, tawny ochraceous ones. 



Length of forewing : cj, 43 — 50 mm. 

 ?, 51—00 mm.

The species occurs in Sikkim, where it is common at low elevations from A]ml 

 to August, according to Muller ; in Burma it flies already in Februar}-. It is found 

 rather plentifully in the beds of streams ; the female is scarce in collections.
