$ Almost exactly as in ^ , but with the apical black 

 area in primaries, touching end of cell and extend- 

 ing along costa nearly to base ; the sub-apical band 

 of white spots much smaller ; basal grey area 

 less extensive ; the wing much less angulated 

 apically. 



Secondaries : With the costal area white. 



Underside. — Primaries : The region corresponding 

 with the inner border of black apical area of 

 u^jperside, represented by a pronounced black band, 

 extending from costa to outer margin nearly to 

 hinder angle ; otherwise as in ^ . 



Exp. : 52 mm. Hab. : Cairns. 



Coll. : Queensland Museum. 



This, the only example known of this sex, was obtained 

 at Cairns by thf? Museum collector (Mr. Wilde), 

 and is doubtless a small specimen. Since my 

 description of the ^ , several more specimens of 

 that sex have been collected, all from Cairns.
