  Male. 
  Upperside 
  more 
  greenish-blue 
  than 
  T. 
  Zuhiha,

  Smith 
  ; 
  

   anterior 
  wings 
  with 
  the 
  costal 
  margin 
  at 
  the 
  bas5 
  and 
  the 
  outer 
  margin 
  more 
  

   broadly 
  black, 
  and 
  the 
  central 
  white 
  band 
  is 
  not 
  irrorated 
  by 
  blue 
  scales. 
  

  

  On 
  the 
  UNDERSIDE 
  of 
  the 
  anterior 
  wings 
  the 
  blue 
  band 
  which 
  traverses 
  the 
  

   outer 
  marginal 
  black 
  area 
  is 
  narrower 
  along 
  the 
  outer 
  margin 
  tlian 
  in 
  T. 
  ZtdciJxa; 
  

   on 
  the 
  posterior 
  wings 
  the 
  inner 
  edge 
  of 
  the 
  submarginal 
  blue 
  band 
  is 
  lunulate 
  

   between 
  the 
  veins, 
  and 
  the 
  black 
  spots 
  in 
  it 
  are 
  larger 
  than 
  in 
  2\ 
  Zuleika. 
  

  

  Female. 
  Upperside 
  closely 
  resembles 
  the 
  same 
  sex 
  of 
  T. 
  Zuleika, 
  but 
  on 
  

   the 
  anterior 
  wings 
  the 
  apical 
  area 
  is 
  not 
  tipped 
  with 
  white, 
  and 
  the 
  white 
  band 
  

   which 
  crosses 
  the 
  middle 
  is 
  more 
  oblique. 
  

  

  On 
  the 
  underside 
  the 
  apex 
  of 
  the 
  anterior 
  wings 
  is 
  not 
  tipped 
  with 
  white, 
  

   and 
  on 
  the 
  posterior 
  wings 
  the 
  submarginal 
  blue 
  band 
  is 
  also 
  lunulate 
  on 
  its 
  

   inner 
  edge, 
  the 
  spots 
  in 
  this 
  band 
  being 
  likewise 
  larger. 
  Cilia 
  rather 
  broadly 
  

   white, 
  crossed 
  by 
  grey 
  at 
  the 
  ends 
  of 
  the 
  veins.

  (types,

  and 
  tlie 
  Hon. 
  Walter 
  Eothschild. 
  

  

  This 
  species 
  is 
  closely 
  allied 
  to 
  T. 
  Zuleika, 
  but 
  the 
  different 
  colouring 
  of 
  the 
  male, 
  the 
  

   absence 
  of 
  the 
  white 
  tips 
  on 
  the 
  anterior 
  wings 
  of 
  the 
  female, 
  and 
  other 
  distinctions 
  are 
  sufficient 
  

   to 
  separate 
  them.
