of the lower white area. Just within hind margin, one-third distance from 

 apex to lower angle, is a smaller white spot, and there is another below it, 

 one-third distance from lower angle to apex. The latter of these merges 

 into the white area of the lower portion of the wing. 



Upper side of lower wing is entirely white, excepting a small area of 

 black at the very base, and a narrow border of black along hind margin. 

 This border is black at the upper angle and turns to grayish at the lower 

 half, disappearing entirely just before it reaches anal angle. Outside of 

 this, on the edge of the margin, is a white thread. 



The white area of upper side of fore wing is duplicated on under side 

 The black of the upper side gives way to a great extent to tawny. The 

 discoidal space is jet black at its upper portion, tawny at basal portion, 

 the black extending down along the median nevure towards base. In the 

 centre of the black area is a white spot. Separating the black from the 

 tawny is a thread of very lustrous greenish-blue, nearly silver. This 

 tawny color extends to costa, the costa being tawny up to apex. A green- 

 ish-blue lustrous line extends from base along costa for one-quarter inch. 

 The large white spot of upper surface is repeated. The first white spot 

 at hind margin of upper surface is repeated, but suffuses strongly upwards 

 to the costa, forming an apical band of white. At inner edge of this band 

 is a heavy tawny line, the costal and lower portion of it tipped with lus- 

 trous greenish-blue scales. The lower white spot is the same as on upper 

 surface. The hind margin has a black thread at its edge, and within this 

 a line of tawny, edged on its inner side by a thread of the lustrous scales. 



The lower side of lower wing is the same as upper surface, except the 

 black is replaced by tawny, and the marginal border is edged on its inner 

 side by a thread of lustrous greenish-blue, with a suggestion of a black thread 

 within it.
