This species is nearest allied to D. Ilisa {Eterusia 

 Risa, Dbld.). It differs from D. Ilisa in its much 

 smaller size, the yellow band on fore wing being placed 

 across the middle, whereas in D. Ilisa it is at one-third 

 from the base ; the })lack marginal band on hind wing 

 is one-third less in width at the apex, and the band also 

 extends to the angle ; in D. Ilisa this band is very 

 broad, and is confined to the apical area.
