Male. Wings above pale grcenisb-wbito : anterior wings with the costal margin — very narrowly — 

 and the apex and outer margin — not reaching outer angle — dark fuscous ; a dark fuscous spot at end of 

 cell : posterior wings with some very minute and obscure marginal spots. Wings beneath pale greenish 

 ochraceous, thickly covered with darker strigae, which form an indistinct fascia on both wings between 

 end of cell and outer margin ; anterior wings with the inner area occupying lower half of cell and 

 extending to outer margin, pale greenish-white, both wings with a small brownish spot at end of cell. 

 Body above with the pronotura dark and covered with long greenish-white hairs, the abdomen obscure 

 ochraceous, eyes castaneous, body beneath and legs more or less concolorous with wings. 



Female. Resembling the male above, Init with the costal margin more broadly fuscous, and with 

 a short subapical fuscous fascia, apparently enclosing two or three pale spots ; posterior wings with a 

 distinct marginal series of brownish spots. Wings beneath generally as in male. 



Female. Var. a. — Anterior wings above with the fuscous apes and subapical fascia amalgamated ; 

 posterior wings with the outer margin broadly and irregularly dark fuscous. 



Exp. wings, <? and 2 , 60 to 66 millim. 



Hab. — Continental India; Assam, Bengal (Brit. Mus.). — Ceylon (Moore).— Andaman Islands; Port 

 Blair (Moore). — Burma; Moulmein (Brit. Mus.). — Malay Peninsula; Province Wellesley (coll. Dist.) ;

 Dist.). — Flores (Wallace). ^Philippine Islands ; Manilla (Brit. Mus.). — Formosa (Brit. Mus.). — Austraha ;

The females of this species vary considerably in the amouut of the dark fuscous margiDal 

 shadings on the upper surface of the wings. 



Genus UDAIANA. 



I'din'tina, Distant, nntcii, p. 280. 



Anterior wings subtriangulav, the costal margin arched at base, and then somewhat oblique to apex; 

 apex obtuse ; outer margin convex ; inner margin nearly straight, very slightly sinuate. Costal nervure 

 terminating on costa a little beyond apex of cell ; first and second subcostal nervules emitted somewhat 

 close together near end of cell, third and fourth bifurcating near apex of wing, fourth and fifth bifurcating 

 almost midway between end of cell and apex of wing ; upper disco-cellular nervule obliquely concave near 

 its upper end, lower ol)lii|ue and slightly bent inwardly ; median nervules about equally wide apart, upper 

 from end of cell. Posterior wings somewhat elongately subovate ; costal margin obliquely rounded to 

 apex ; outer margin convex ; abdominal margins obliquely divergent at anal angle. Costal nervure 

 rounded, extending to a little more than half the length of costal margin ; subcostal nervules bifurcating 

 at about one-third before end of cell ; disco-cellular nervules oblique, the upper slightly bent inwardly ; 

 upper median nervule from end of cell ; bases of the first and second median nervules about one-fourth 

 nearer together than those of second and third ; submedian nervure nearly straight ; internal nervure
