7 mm. broad, obliqnel.y cut off posteriorly, preceded by a white discal spot C— SC*, 

 edged with blue, and a blue postdiscal spot, the former sometimes vestigial ; 

 submarginal spots turquoise bine, upper two the largest, diameter about U mm., 

 more or less rounded, tlie others more transverse, last two seldom with vestiges 

 of white centres ; admarginal spots the same colour, thin, interrupted between 

 veins, spot — SC* always, the following one or two sometimes absent ; abdominal 

 fold grey or clayish grey near margin. 



Underside olive wood brown, tinged with tawny olive, with a bluish olive grey 

 gloss in side-light, snbbasal to median bars thinly bordered with bhiish grey at 

 both sides.- — Forewing : basal cell-bar seldom indicated by a dot, cell-bars 2 to 4 

 nearly equal in thickness,- barely J mm. broad, bar 3 mostly interrupted, bar 4 

 convex distally in middle, concave in upper half ; submedian bar M' — M- proximal 

 of base of M', bar M- — SM' generally angle-shaped, i to U mm. more proximal 

 than bar M'— M'^ ; median bars R' — SliP one behind the other, not continuous, 

 bars R'— M^ curved, bar M- — SM^ straight or angled upon (SM'), the tip of the angle 

 pointing distad, bar R' — M' often very short, about 6 mm. from base of M', bar 

 R"— R' 1| mm. from bar D, bars SC— R'' 9 mm. from cell, short, thin, bars 

 SC° — R' with a small white spot at outer side ; discal bars M'— SM- black, thin, 

 curved, the others vestigial or absent, followed by five postdiscal dots between 

 SC^ and M', white, distally yellowish, bars M'— SM", however, with a bluish distal 

 border followed by gallstone yellow, heavy, halfmoons ; postdiscal bars M^ — SM^ 

 represented by a large double patch, deeply incised distally upon (SM'), with pale 

 blue outer border resembling the number 3 ; bar M' — M" represented by the 

 vestige of a second patch ; outer margin with an indistinct band of 2 mm. width, 

 which is slightly more yellow than the disc ; internal margin blackish near angle. 



Hindwiug : subbasal and submedian series of bars stopping at M, but there 



is occasionally a minute submedian bar behind M near origin of M- ; basal costal 

 bar curving distad touching PC at angle of this vein, subbasal costal bar absent, 

 .submedian costal bar standing in front of the subbasal bar C — SC^, curving distad ; 

 median costal bar more proximal than the other median bars, curving basad, 

 sometimes joined to submedian costal bar along costal margin, mediau bars 

 R' — SM* in an almost straight row, the row slightly broken at R^, bar R- — R' being 

 about J or 1 mm. more proximal than bar R^ — M', bar C — 8C- more basal, more 

 or less concave distally, whitish outer border of bar — SC- developed to small 

 white spots, similar liut smaller spots often between R' and R^ ; discal bars 

 arched, thin, partly obliterated, bluish white distal borders of the upper bars 

 ■conspicuous ; postdiscal bars M^ — SM^ black, well marked, the other postdiscal 

 bars vestigial, seldom clearly defined, postdiscal luniform interspaces gallstone 

 yellow, often more olivaceous tawny ; white submarginal spots present, last two the 

 smallest, but the best defined, shaded with bluish grey, followed by blue and black 

 dots, except the upper ones ; admarginal interstitial bars dilated distad at ends, 

 gallstone yellow, constricted in middle, the distal triangular portions near veins 

 bluish grey ; tails acute, upper one 3 to 5 mm., second about 2 mm. 



? . Wings above blackish brown, purplish, outer area of hiudvving rather deeper 



in tint than rest of upperside. Forewing : basal half of costal margin chocolate ; 



three series of spots, a discal series : two sj)ots SC^ — R-, about 9 mm. from cell, 

 the second more distal, often a trace of a spot before SU', a square spot R'' — R' close 

 to cell, four spots R' — SM'-, spot R^ — M' more or less rounded, 8 mm. from base of 

 M', the next a little more proximal, spots AP— SM" placed into blue patches, a
