of the black blotch which closes the cell, and the rest of the 

 wing within the border, and a row of about six snbmarginal 

 spots, of which the second and third are the largest, are white. 

 Hind wings with the apical half and all the nervures broadly 

 black ; the cell is filled up nearly to the extremity with pale 

 sulphur-yellow ; the costa is of the same colour, faintly marked 

 with orange, and within the fork of the median nervure is 

 a large pale spot followed by three smaller ones and then by 

 longer ones, the two nearest the inner margin extending to 

 the anal angle. There is a submarginal row of orange spots, 

 partly bordered with white, and the base below the cell and the 

 inner margin are likewise marked with orange. 



Underside similar, but the orange at the base of the fore 

 wings is more intense and the pale markings on the hind 

 wings are smaller, better defined, and therefore wholly 

 macular. There is an orange mark at the base of tiie costa, 

 and on the whole the underside hardly differs from that of 

 ordinary females of B. niseia.
