Very intimately related to T. AcJiine, Cram. 



$ Markings and pattern as in Achine, hut all the Hack borders 

 and hands broader and darker. Hind-wing : a continuous moderately 

 tvide hind-marginal black border, formed of the enlarged and confluent 

 nervular spots. Under side. — Neuration of fore-wing black beyond 

 middle, that of hind-wing black throughout, except main nervures for a 

 little distance from base. Hind-wing : creamy-white ; orange-yellow 

 mark immediately preceding terminal disco-cellular black spot more 

 or less prolonged iu direction of base ; from hind-margin to about 

 middle, a black line on inter-nervular fold between first median ner- 

 vule and submedian nervure. 



$ Like Achine $, but black markings always very broad and 

 dark. Forc-iving : terminal disco-cellular spot sometimes merged in 

 the dark clouding extending from base ; spaces of whitish or yellowish 

 ground-colour considerably reduced. Hind-wing : spaces of ground- 

 colour reduced by enlargement of black markings to a moderate-sized 

 central patch, and a series of submarginal spots (of which the middle 

 two are more or less obliterated). Under side. — Hind- wing and outer 

 portion of apical patch of fore-wing strongly yellow-tinged (sometimes 

 with a greenish cast) ; black neuration as in $. Hind-ioing : angulated 

 discal ray well marked in diffused dull orange-yellow ; bright orange-
