iiulistiiirt [)iili' l)iisal streak in the cell and a small indistinct white pateh at its 

 end; a large white spot on the disc, divided by the middle median nervule, as 

 in N'. Sdtifia, Grose-Smith, and another elongate sj)()t on the inner niar^iii, 

 nearer the l)ase, edged with bluish scales, both spots being smaller than in 

 N. SatiiKi. Towards the apex are two rows of white spots, the inner, two, and 

 the outer three in number, and a narrow white submarginal streak b(>tween the 

 two lowest median nervules. Posterior wings crossed a little before the middle 

 by a band of bluish-white from the upper subcostal nervule to near the inner 

 margin, where it is narrowest, being widest above the uppermost nu'diaii 

 nervule ; half-way betw(>en the baiul and i\w outer margin, towards the apex, are 

 three small indistinct white spots between the veins. 



I^NDERSiDE with a broad bluish-white streak in the cell, divided by a 

 dark line at about two-thirds from the base, followed by a greyish streak at the 

 end of the cell, and a triangular bluish-white streak beyond, as in K Satum, but 

 less elongate ; the other spots and markings as in A''. ^((//;/(^ but they are not 

 margined with bluish-white. Posterior wings with two white streaks at the 

 base; the central white band rather wider than on the upperside, but more 

 abbreviated and more indented on its outer edge and of less uniform width than 

 in ^\ Sdtliia ; the dou])le row of spots and markings towards the outer margin 

 is whiter. 



The female resembles the male, but on the upperside of the anterior wings 

 there is an additional white spot in the cell beyond its middle, and the inner- 

 marginal white spot extends above the submedian nervure. The central white 

 band on the posterior wings is wider and whiter, and the disc is crossed by four 

 white subconical spots, with an indistinct submarginal row of white bars.
