?. Head above as in refAy, but yellow behind eye. Pronotnm reil like head,

band thinner and farther away from the base, standing nearer the blue distal area ; 



the apex of the wing l)lack. Hindwing : a transparent spot behind cell near 



base; the distal transparent spot smaller than in ada. On the laidei'side the

 jucunda. The apex of the forewing, above, more ijroadiy iilack than in nda jucunda, 

 the upper portion of the golden patch more reduced than in the two jireceiling 

 forms, the autemedian band nearly as in the Bornean subspecies. The hindwing 

 has a transparent basal spot like jucunda, but the transparent distal spot is absent. 

 On the underside there is on both wings at the end of the cell a blue metallic spot, 

 which is larger than the respective spot in the other subspecies, and the distal 

 margin of the hindwing is more extended metallic.
