  the

  spots 
  towards 
  

   the

  angle 
  of

  The 
  Underside 
  closely 
  resembles 
  Z. 
  Amphissa, 
  but 
  is 
  more 
  slate-coloured, 
  

   and 
  the 
  markings 
  are 
  whiter 
  and 
  more 
  distinct. 
  On 
  the 
  anterior 
  wings 
  the 
  

   double 
  row 
  of 
  white 
  lines 
  across 
  the 
  disc 
  is 
  more 
  vertically 
  situated, 
  those 
  on 
  

   the 
  costal 
  margin 
  being 
  further 
  from 
  the 
  apex. 
  On 
  the 
  posterior 
  wings 
  the 
  

   dark 
  submarginal 
  spots 
  between 
  the 
  veins 
  towards 
  the 
  apex 
  are 
  more 
  conical.

  the 
  

   inner 
  margin 
  above 
  the 
  anal 
  angle 
  into 
  the 
  interspace, 
  beyond 
  the 
  uppermost 
  

   median 
  nervule, 
  is 
  represented 
  by 
  two 
  orange 
  lunules 
  and

  of 
  another

  in 
  the

  being 
  more 
  restricted, 
  the

  half 
  of 
  the

  the 
  same 
  colour

  the

  and 
  outer-mar- 
  

   ginal 
  area, 
  and 
  densely 
  dusted 
  with 
  blue 
  scales 
  ; 
  on 
  the 
  posterior 
  wings 
  there 
  is 
  

   an 
  indistinct 
  submarginal 
  row 
  of 
  black 
  spots 
  partially 
  surrounded 
  by 
  dark 
  blue, 
  

   and
