3. Upperside, both wings dark brown with the basal and 
median areas quite covered with somewhat lustrous darkish blue 
scales which extend almost to the termen in the secondaries. 
Underside, primaries brown with the median area dark grey and 
in the postmedian area there is a well-defined paler area crenulate 
at its inner margin in the fold, whilst beyond the cell is a trace of 
two small paler spots which are separated from those on the fold 
by a dash of the dark ground-colour, Secondaries uniformly brown. 
®. Upperside, primaries dark brown, below the cell whitish with 
a slight superimposition of very pale blue scales, a largish white 
spot between veins 2 and 3 in the postmedian area, and an oblique

Secondaries pale grey with bluish scaling in the basal and median 
areas. Underside with the bluish and white areas and spots 
repeated in white, the postmedian spots being separated by a

3. Upperside, both wings lustrous bright azure blue. Primaries 
with the blue area rounded off so as to leave the upper end of the 
cell black and not extending into the tornus, it thus leaves the tornus 
and the apical half of the wing deep black. Secondaries entirely 
blue except the costa which is grey from vein 6, a large shiny 
leaden grey roundish sexual patch occupies the cell and somewhat 
around it. The apex of the wing is narrowly black with a linear 
black termen. The two tails are black tipped with white whilst 
the lower longer one is fringed with white as well. Underside,
