" c? Upperside : both wings black ; markings seen from above 

 lustrous sea-green, from any other direction more or less bluish, 

 the tips of the scales being blue and slightly tilted downwards. 

 Fore wing with six submarginal spots, the upper five small and 

 subequal, arranged in a linear series, the lower slightly nearer the 

 base, oblong and much larger than the others ; a slender oblique 

 fascia beyond the cell, divided by the discoidal nervules into three 

 parts, the lowest longest : a stripe along the lower side of the 

 median nervure extending to the base, a small part of it lying 

 beyond the first median nervule which divides it ; beyond this a 

 wide transverse discal spot divided by the second median nervule 

 into two portions outwardly, another stripe along the hind margin 

 almost from the base, the outer end inclined upwards with a 

 minute spot above its termination, separated from it by the 

 submedian nervure. Hind wing with a large pale costal area; 

 a tuft of long hairs appressed in the direction of the apex placed 

 on a gland which forms a raised elliptical line on the underside 

 above the origin of the first subcostal nervule ; four submarginal 

 spots, a diffused one extending from the median nervure halfway 

 to the submedian nervure ; a large obliquely-semicircular one, 

 dark in the middle, in the first median interspace, a narrow 

 crescent close to the marginal black line in the third median 

 interspace and a small diffused spot in the next interspace, 

 partly united with the upper discal spot ; three discal spots, one 

 occupying the submedian interspace from its base constricted in 

 the middle, the end clavate and occupying the whole breadth 

 of the interspace ; beyond this two spots of moderate size in 

 the median interspaces discally. Underside : both wings rufous 

 brown with a slight bluish gloss. Fore wing : with a broad white 

 band beyond the cell from the costa (where it is narrowest) almost 

 to the hind margin ; beyond it a broad space of darker richer 

 brown, then a row of seven delicate whitish transverse sub- 

 marginal streaks, of which the upper three are most distinct, 

 crescent-shaped, the others obscure and irregular ; beyond these 

 a paler space with three whitish streaks parallel with and close 

 to the upper three of the inner series ; margin chestnut-brown ; 

 cilia chiefly light. Hind wing : basal part unmarked ; a broad 

 white band crossing the wing from the costa occupying the outer 

 third of the cell, its inner margin well defined and but slightly 

 irregular ; the disc is covered with large rufous-brown markings 

 in two very irregular series; the first four (those above the
