scales: it also enters the cell iu one specimen; the iiiiii-giiuil s|]ots are rather large 

 above and below, and tinged with yellow, chiefly so in the Dili specimens; besides 

 the anal lunule there are four red subinarginal sjjots present in all three examples. 



Below, the grey internervular streaks of the forewings are broad and as long as 

 in P. helenii^ ; between the lower discoidal nervule to the inner margin they are 

 shaiply cut ofif inwardly in a straight line ; the hindwings have a complete series of 

 submarginal spots, which are not or scarcely lunulate and of rather large size ; the 

 discal white area consists of at least five spots, of which the costal one is almost as 

 long as broad, and of which the fifth, standing between the two upper median nervules, 

 is small and mostly tinged with rufous ; in one specimen there is a sixth but extremely 

 small discal spot of a rufous colour behind the middle median vein between the sul> 

 anal rufous mark and the cell ; all three specimens have one or two rufous markings 

 beyond the white or rufous-white discal spots between the lower discoidal and middle 

 median veins. 



(J. Xine vwdcs from Samhawa, from which island I unfortunatelv do not possess 

 & female, belong iirobably to tlie same race as the Timor feinnles. They differ from 

 P. }ielem(.s pcdawanicus Standing, especially in the more yellow anal and sulimarginal 

 markings of the underside of the hindwings, in the much larger anal and suVmnal 

 spots, and in the cell of the hindwings being, in comparison with its length, broader 

 than in P.heleiius palrnvdiiicus. especially towards the apex.

This form differs from P. helenus jjalawanicus Standing, chiefly in the white 

 area of the hindwings being of almost the same size above and below in the mdle, and 

 consisting of four sjiots, of which the last is not much shorter than the second. The 

 submarginal spots of the underside of the hindwings arc very variable ; in a .Mindoro 

 male the six anterior ones are wanting.

Xote. — The scales of the white jialch on the hindwings above are in the untie of 

 P. helenus L. elongate and liidentate ; in the female they are shorter, with the apex 

 rotundate-truncate and tri- or (juadridentate, as in the mole of P. cantor Westw. This 

 difference between the sexes is, however, not at all constant, as the scales become also 

 in the niale often tri- or (juadridcntate. — K, .1.
