9 More sandy in coloration than P. gohiata, with a distinct 

 oblique olivaceous brown central belt, limited by the discal 

 blackish line, which is widely zigzag, but diverging from this 

 line above the lower radial, whence it runs transversely but 

 irregularly to the costal margin; a large dusky discocelhdar 

 spot; veins on the disc white dotted with black as usual; secon- 

 daries with the margin rather more strongly^ dentated than in 

 P. gohiata, the inner blackish line represented by^ a grey band; 

 outer border limited by a dusky line; a slender black marginal 

 line; primaries below with a lakey tint; the discocellular dot 

 black ; a transverse irregular discal line answering to that (if 

 the upper surface ; secondaries i)a.le sandy-whitish, the basal

Pliihalajiteni.r angnligwa $? (No. 1 ()!>). In this form, whidi 

 T take to be the male of the preceding, the markings ol' the 

 primaries are well-defined but do not form a belt as in the 

 female, the under surface of these wings is dull rose-red ; 

 the secondaries are smaller and more strongly dentated than in 

 the female, and on the under surface are marked with a discal 

 sei-ies of black dots; this species bears considerable resemblance 

 to the European P . tersata upon the upper surface, but differs 

 in its dentated secondaries.
