iiKirgiiial (suljmarginal at apex) row of seven dei^p orange spots. 

 Black spots as follows. Two in cell, and one large obliquely trans- 

 verse spot at end of cell on discocelhilars. Midway between end 

 of cell and apex a confluent oblique band of four spots. A large 

 rounded spot in area 3, one slightly larger in area 2 touching 

 median and nervule lb. Beneath this and jiointing towards 

 hind angle an elongated slightly curved spot in area lb. One 

 subbasal spot in same area and a short Idack longitudinal basal 

 streak between la and median. 



H.-w. with a black basal area formed of more or less confluent 

 spots and extending not quite half the length of cell. In 

 Mombasa examples a subbasal spot in cell is usually well separ- 

 ated. Hind margin bordered with black about 3 mm. wide and 

 bearing traces of paler internervular spots. Discal spots as 

 follows. One in area 7, near middle. One iu 6, 5, and 4, each 

 respectively rather nearer margin than the one above it. One in 

 3 near end of cell, one in 2 nearer base, one in Ic nearer 

 margin, and one in lb, in a line with tliat in 2 (often obsolete on 

 upperside). Usimlly a large spot at origin of nervule 5. 



Underside. F.-w. as above but paler and sparsely scaled. 

 Usually a very minute black dot near base above costal. H.-w. 

 creamy ochreous. Hind margin black as on upperside but 

 bearing seven distinct pale greenish spots, that in Ic doubled. 

 Base black, enclosing six pale greenish spots. Area 9, and base 

 of 8 rosy pink, with a black spot beyond precostal, a rose pink 

 suflusion in areas la, lb, Ic, adjacent to basal black. 



Head and thorax black with a few pale spots above, and several 

 beneath, basal half of abdomen black, with deep orange lateral 

 spots, remainder deep orange. Claws unequal. 



9 . Expanse 60-70 mm. Wings quite transparent, suffused with 

 brown at base. F.-w. Avithout spots, sometimes with a few scales 

 at apex. H.-w. with spots as in ^ but much smaller, the basal 

 black being reduced to a spot in area 7, two in cell, and one in Ic, 

 lb, and la. Hind margin slightly scaled with blackish and bearing 

 seven paler internervular spots. Underside as above but with 

 a few rose pink scales at base in areas 9, Ic, and la. Head, 

 thorax and abdomen dark brown, the white spots on head and 

 thorax more distinct than in $ . 



This seems to Ite the usual form iu British E. Africa.

Eesembles the foregoing but the f.-w. black spots are present 

 tliough much reduced. The hind marginal orange spots are 

 also present but paler than in the male, whilst the h.-w. may
