The butterfly is very common on West-Java, in the sunshine flying on 

 flowers. The larva feeds on kounjit (CuRCUxrA Longa L.), on pisang (Musa 

 Paradisiaca L.), on paf/iiig (Costus Si'eciosus L.), on /cmoii (Curcuma spec.) 

 and on daivoii ondjch (Amomum spec); according to de Niceville also on 

 Hedychium SpicatuiM Ham. 



The larva as well as the pupa has a striking likeness with those of Udaspes 

 FoLus Cram. The first is very transparent so that some of the inward organs 

 are distinctly visible. The head is strongly bifurcated, sometimes red or dark- 

 brown with a vertical line, that downwards divides into two, sometimes black, 

 sometimes also grayish yellow with a broad margin and 4 bright yellow 

 patterns. The larva shoots its hard excrements vigorously out of the leaf-case 

 wherein it lives. A pupa of the 14"' of May gave the imago on the 22'^ of 

 that same month.
