marginal dark spots form a continued irregular band, beyond which 

 is a row of indistinct whitish spots.

These two specimens indicate a variable species, which I had at 

 first thought distinct from Felder's species.

Here commences a peculiar type of colouration, of which the 

 present is one of the most distinct species.

This is the true P. aspasia of Stoll, but there are well marked 

 permanent forms in each of the adjacent islands, which it seems 

 desirable to separate. Most of these offer differences in both the 

 sexes, and two of the females have been separately named by Vol- 

 lenhoven, while he keeps the males with P. aspasia.

Male. — Very like P. aspasia. Above : the fore wings have the 

 nervures and the border rather more broadly black, the hind wings 

 equally rich orange, with a broader black border ; beneath there 

 are the same differences. The female differs completely from 

 that of P. aspasia, more so than indicated in Vollenhoven's figure, 

 being earthy-brown above with dull yellowish-white spots and , 

 markings. Rather larger than P. aspasia.
