$ White, ivith very large broad crimson-red apical patch, divided 

 into eight iincqual parts hy fine Hack nciiration. Fore-wing : costa 

 black-edged ; basal area to beyond middle of discoidal cell and of inner 

 margin suffused u-ith dark-grey ; apical patch usually glossed with 

 violet in some lights, externally bordered narrowly with black, which 

 radiates for a little distance on nervules, and internally with a broad 

 blackish border, diffused on its inner edge, touching extremity of dis- 

 coidal cell, and extending to posterior angle ; a terminal lunular disco- 

 cellular black spot ; between first median nervule and submcdian nervure, 

 almost touching internal border of red patch, a very faint indistinct 

 blackish mark. Eind-wing : broadly suffused with dark-grey as far as 

 extremity of discoidal cell (where there is a faint orange spot), and also 

 as far as anal angle, where it is paler ; on costa, beyond middle, a 

 transverse short blackish streak, from which a broad blackish band, 

 radiating for some distance on nervules, and usually crossed by whitish 

 inter-nervular streaks, extends along hind-margin, narrowing to anal 

 angle. Under side. — Fore-wing : white ; basal grey much paler than 

 on upper side, its outer edge defined by a blackish streak ; terminal 

 disco-cellular spot larger and rounder ; apical patch outwardly creamy- 

 white, inwardly pale orange-red, traversed on its inner side by a sinuate 

 row of six blackish spots ; spot below first median nervule blacker and 

 more distinct, and continuous of the sinuate row of spots ; nervules 

 near hind-margin clouded with blackish, which forms terminal spots 

 on the three next anal angle, Hind-iving : very slightly tinged with 

 yellowish ; costa edged with orange-yellow from base to a little before 

 middle ; grey suffusion as extensive as on upper side, but very much 

 paler; a rather large, orange-red, incompletely black-ringed spot at 

 extremity of cell ; beyond middle, from costa to submedian nervure, a 

 sub-angulated series of seven red-centred blackish spots ; neuration 

 clouded with blackish between this series of spots and hind-margin. 

 In both ivings a very fine black line edging hind-margin. 



$ Fore-icing : suffusion from base much darker than in ^, extend- 

 ing farther towards middle ; disco-cellular spot larger, ovate ; ajnccd 

 marking smaller, dull-red, inclining to orange, and without violet lustre, 

 broadly black- bordered externally, and divided by a transverse, sinuate 

 band of contiguous black spots, similar to those on under side of ^ ; 

 spot below third median nervule large, black, quadrate, often joined to 

 inner border of apical marking. Hind-wing : dark suffusion not ex- 

 tending farther than in ^, but of the same brownish-black as in fore- 

 wing ; disco- cellular orange spot hardly perceptible ; costal mark beyond 

 middle continued across wing bv a row of contiguous blackish spots.
