Underside, palpi, middle of sterua, a broad oblique stripe on meso-, aud a 

 shorter and thinner one on metasteruiim, onterside of middle and hinder tibiae, 

 distal edges of tarsal segments, and the abdomen, white. 



c?. Wings, upperside, black, olivaceous at base. Forewing : outer margin 



deeply concave in middle, markings cream colour ; a broad discal band, from 11'' to 

 internal margin, 14 mm. wide behind, 5 to 8 in front, partition R^ — M' separated, 

 the band continued by two spots SC!^— R-, the upper one very small, mostly 

 represented only by some blnisb white scales, the second about 8 mm. from outer 

 margin, 4 to 5 mm. long ; a postdiscal spot SC^— SC'', occasionally vestigial, often 

 followed by a second, smaller, postdiscal spot, a series of small, white, marginal 



dots, white scales restricted to fringe between SC" and SC^ Hindwing : the 



greater part of the wing cream colour, basal black area only 4 to 5 mm. wide ; black 

 disco-marginal band with nearly straight proximal edge, of nearly even width 

 (9 mm. at SC-) from C to (SM'), inclading two series of glaucous blue spots, 

 snbmarginal spots more or less rounded, except upper one, second spot the largest, 

 2 by 3 mm., the admarginal spots transverse, divided or subdivided in sharply 

 pointed triangular spots, upper ones generally absent, anal spot yellow ; abdominal 

 fold black beyond end of SM^ the black scaling including a white, triangular, 

 subanal patch. 



Underside : black bars very heavy, joined together, interspaces silvery white, 



some yellow, others pale blue. Forewing : costal margin black, the bands joined 



to it, a streak at base white ; cell-bars and bar D merged together, leaving three 

 rather small interstitial, white, spots, sometimes there is a fourth, minute, spot 

 near base ; sulmedian and median liars M'— (SM') merged together isolating a 

 white submedian streak behind basal partition of M and a triangular spot liefore 

 base of IVP, median bar R^-^M^ merged together with the black cellular area, 

 produced distad along M', bar R=— R^ not separated from bar D, the cellule R-— R^ 

 completely occupied by a black streak from cell to discal bar, median bars SC*' — R- 

 10 mm. from cell, forming a short, broad, band, which connects the streak R- — R' 

 with the costal border, median interspaces SC^-^— R- white ; discal bars all present, 

 forming a continuous band which is nearly parallel to outer margin, and is joined 

 along the veins to the black postdisco-marginal band ; discal interspaces SC^ — R^ 

 white, not separated, discal interspace R^— M' touching the next with its dilated 

 distal portion, the following three patches wider than above, cream colour, extended 

 to base at SM-; postdiscal interspaces 8L'^— M^ white, upper three nearly contiguous, 

 the following two widely isolated, interspaces M^— SM^ yellow, patch M^— SM^ 

 measuring 5 by 7 mm. ; snbmarginal interspaces represented by one or two white 

 dots near apex of wing, and three pairs of obliquely placed, bluish white, linear 

 .spots M'— SM- which are often joined to the white marginal dots, the latter rather 



larger than above. Hindwing : basal and subbasal bars merged together to a 



black band of 3 mm. width, which is continuous with the three black lines upon 

 veins (SM')— SM', and with marginal line ; snbmedian and median bars forming 

 a band of 3 mm. width, crossing C IS mm. from end of this vein joining line (SM') 

 and being continuous with disco-postdiscal band, portion (SM')— SM' connecting 

 the black abdominal lines and isolating a white triangular patch near anal angle ; 

 there are sometimes traces of white interspaces in the median band ; postdiscal and 

 discal bars forming a third band, which is 3i mm. broad between R^ and R\ 

 includes a series of thin, sometimes slightly curved, pale ochraceons, interstitial 

 lines, the band crossing SC^ 5 mm. from end, slightly angled upon R- ; snbmarginal.
