Female. — White ; base somewhat dusky, markings as in tlie 

 male.

 Guinea, Philippine Islands (Wall.). 



The males often hardly differ from T. hecabe, but the remark- 

 able difference in the colour of the females seems to render it 

 necessary to separate the form. A species from the Philippine 

 Islands sent me as T. ul'dha agrees well with this species.
