<S $. Upperside white. .Fore wing: cell crossed by five short 

 black bands, of which the basal extends to the dorsum, the sub- 

 basal into interspace 1, the medial and preapical up to the median 



vein, and the apical or fifth along 

 the discocellulars ; this last ex- 

 tends broadly on both sides of the 

 veinlets and terminates at the 

 lower apex of the cell ; beyond 

 these are broad postdiscal and 

 terminal black transverse bands 

 from costa to tornal angle ; the 

 two bands coalesce below vein 4 

 and terminate in a point at 

 the tornus ; the white portions 

 of the cell anteriorly overlaid 

 with pale green ; short macular 

 hyaline green bands between the 

 black cellular apical band and 

 the discal band and anteriorly 

 between the latter and the ter- 

 minal band. Hind wing : basal 

 three-fourths uniform white, 

 with black markings on the 

 underside that show through by 

 transparency ; terminal fourth
