about 6 to 9 iniu. from outer mai'giu before M-, dentate upon veins, iliscal patch 

 R- — W not separated from white area, discal spots SC° — R^ more or less isolated ; 

 costal margin and outer area of wing blaik ; disco-cellular bar marked, broad in 

 front, fused with black costal border ; within black outer area there arc two series 

 of white spots, the inner (postdiscal) series is oblique, the upper three spots 

 SC'^ — R^ more or less roi;nded, spot >SC^ — R', the largest of the three, 1§ to 2i mm. 

 long, about 9 or 10 mm. from outer margin, spot R- — R' the smallest, a little more 

 proximal, the following four mostl}' angle-shaped, heavy, spots M' — SM- merged 

 together, the black discal bars separating spots R^ — .SM- from the discal area 

 become graduall}- thinner behind, the bar R'— M' being 1 to 3 mm. wide in middle 

 (broader at the veins), double bar M- — SM- thin (in specimen figured very thin), 

 resembling the number 3 ; there is mostly a black patch at internal margin, 

 partly separating a white patch at internal angle from the white area, jiostdiscal 

 spot SC^ — SC^ not marked ; submarginal spots thin, no spot before S( '"', that 

 l)efore R' sometimes vestigial only, spot M- — SC- longer, fused with one anotlier 

 and with respective postdiscal spots, isolating two black dots or arrowhead-shape(l 



spots. Hindwing : a postdiscal series of black, luniform, or arrowhead-shaped 



spots, the upper ones the heaviest, but all comparatively small ; the scaling at 

 their proximal side is mostly somewhat bluish (owing to the presence of black 

 scales under the white ones), and there is a trace of the black discal bars close 

 to the postdiscal spots between C and R^ and the last discal bar is at least partly 

 marked at abdominal margin, being separated from the last postdiscal one by pale 

 blue scaling ; a complete series of black submarginal spots, transverse, elongate, 

 ellipsoidal, the upper four shorter but broader than the spots R' — M', the last 

 spots M- — SM- thin, bluish, separated from one another at (SM'), joined to black 

 postdiscal lunnles M- — SM-, which are also separated at (SM') ; the white sub- 

 marginal spots separating the two series of black markings about as broad as the 

 black submarginal spots, or somewhat broader, except the last ones, M- — SM-, 

 which are very thin, or even absent (as in figure): admarginal interspaces bluish 

 at veins R' — M-, the blue scaling extending well into tails, anal interspace forming 

 a large pale yellow spot ; a lilack marginal line ; tails pointed, of about the 

 same length (6 to 7 mm.). 



Underside white. Forewing : two heavy cell spots black, upper cell-bar 



more or less incompletely separated from the disco-cellular bar by a pale blue line, 

 submedian and median bars BI' — (SM') merged together; these black markings form 

 a narrow black baud which is interrupted at veins and is almost straight, median 

 bar R' — M', if present, close to cell, not prolonged distad as in E. eudamippus, 

 partition M- — (SM') of that band sometimes wanting ; median bars SC° — R^ present, 

 dot-like, or elongate, not straight and transverse, closer to cell than to discal band, 

 at least the upper one ; white area bordered distally by an olive tawuy or tawny 

 ochraceous band of about 2 mm. width that corresponds to the inner border of the 

 black outer area of the upperside, this band almost straight, bordered distally by 

 the black discal, more or less luniform bars ; area between discal bars and tawny 

 olive or tawny ochraceous marginal border grey, this colour extending to edge of 

 wing at apex ; within the grey area the postdiscal white spots are marked, size as 

 above, bordered by a series of black postdiscal spots, of which the last ones are the 

 largest, spots R^ — M- more or less angle-shaped, spots SC° — R' minnte, the upper 

 ones sometimes absent ; the white submarginal spots also visible, and there is 

 sometimes an indication of the dark submarginal l)ars AI-— SM-. Hindwing :
