Male. Froiitwings above white, the base tinted with rosj', the outer niargiu witli sulphur yellow,

 area slightly deeper in colour ; the base tinted with ro.«y : wings below golden yellow : frontwings with 

 the internal area wliite : a geminate rosy-centred spot at end of cell, a small brown scale-spot just above 

 them and between the first and second subcostal branches and an angulated series of seven similar 

 spots between the nervures on the disc ; hind wings with two ringlike spots jilaced obliquely just 

 beyond the end of the cell ; a brown spot towards the base of tlic cell, a second at the origin of the 

 first subcostal branch and two just below the origin of the fii-st median brantli ; seven brown bisinuate

Feiiiuh-. Frontwings above white : the ape.\ and four sjiots terminating tlie nervures, brown : 

 a series of seven discal brown spots beginning near the aiiex, forming an arc to the tliird median branch,

 J)ruce and W. W. Saunders. The above species seems to vary very little, the chief modifications th;it 

 1 have noticed are confined to the disco-cellular spots upon tlic under surface. Fabricius describes tlie 

 species as follows —

'J'hat the above is not the Linna'an 1'. ScyUn may b(; at once conchuled fVom the lacl that it is a 

 modification of tlie Liunjean description which stands thus —
