cell. On the hind-wing the brownish distal suffusion is confined 

 to a slight indication in cellules lc and 2. 



Underside darker than above and fore-wing patch mostly white. 

 The hind-wing has only 3 minute bluish streaks beyond the cell 

 in 2-4. 



The single specimen obtained is smaller than any other 

 we have seen of the species. The fore- wing measures 

 37 mm. as against 40 mm. mostly attained by other forms.

A pair of this species having been taken in copula we 

 find that the § does not agree with the specimen described 

 by Grose-Smith. This £ is in the Tring Museum and appears 

 to belong to another group of Euploea of which cerberus, 

 Butl., is a representative. It is most likely the $ of our

Upperside smoky-brown, paler at the margins, and some spots 

 showing through from below ; costa of hind-wing grey. 



Underside paler. Fore-wing with a cell-spot near end; 3 spots 

 near the cell in 2-4, the last being much smaller; a submarginal 

 series of 7 dots curving outwardly from costa to cellule 5, the next 

 two dots shifted inwards and the seventh below the sixth ; a well- 

 defined curved stripe in lc and a shorter and greyish stripe below 

 it; inner margin grey. Hind-wing with a cell-spot near end; a 

 series of 6 spots round the cell and between these and the margin 

 4 spots in 4-7 ; 6 marginal dots in pairs between the veins in 4-6. 



Length of fore-wing : 39 mm.

Lepidopterists are not yet unanimous as to whether this 

 genus contains more than one species. In his report on 

 the Lepidoptera of the Wollaston Expedition, Lord Roths- 

 child has described two distinct forms of Tellervo from the 

 same locality and treats them as races of zoilus, Fbr., and
