I formerly supposed this to be a variety of S. Na'pi and

 paper published in the first volume of " Nature and Art : "

 red-brown : primaries more dusky at base, costal margin 

 and apex red-brown ; a large subapical oval black spot ; 

 wings below white ; fringe as above ; primaries with apical 

 half of costa and apex ochreous : discoidal cell, area im- 

 mediately beyond it and a large subapical patch greyish
