lfali\ Upperside. Bhxck, .interior wings with an oldiijue wliite Ijand crossing 

 the wing beyond the cell, from below the costa to just above the ui)per sulj- 

 median nervule, where it becomes suddenly narrowed ; this band is divided into 

 spots by the neryures, and extends nearest to the hind margin along the second 

 discocellular nervule. Posterior wings with a much l)ro!uler and more cream-

 outer edge, which extnuls from the costa to just lielow the second median 

 nervule ; near the anal angle is a Sfjuare red spot, with some adjacent red 

 atoms. 



Underside. Anterior wings nearly as above ; posterior wings with the 

 cream-coloured band obsolete ; the red spot at the anal angle well marked, and 

 bearing a patch of blue dusting, and a row of red crescents, surmounted l»y 

 crescents or arrow-heads of blue dusting, between the nervures ; there are six 

 of these, but only the two brst and the last red spot are well marked ; and the 

 fifth is reduced to a few red specks, though the blue V iil'ove it is con-

 outwardly, and curving round to the anal spot, the seventh of the series ; the
