(J . Above and below closely resembling JV. clinia, Moore, 

 from the Andamans. Upperside with the subapical spots 

 larger, the lower discal spots also much larger, and more 

 uniform in size with those of the tronsverse band of the hind 

 wing, wiiich is nearly uniform in its entire length, and the 

 subinarginal band of the hind wing is pure white and well 

 ])ronounced. On the underside the cell-streak on fore ^Ying 

 is narrower and the subapical spots are joined together.

S • Upperside black, markings pure white : fore wing with 

 the usual cell-streak running close along the median vein 

 broken at the end, then continued in a narrow spear-shaped 

 form to nearly halfway between the cell-end and the outer 

 margin ; two large elongated subapical spots, the upper one 

 the larger J a large round spot in the lower disc, a smaller 

 one below it, inwards ; a submarginal line of disconnected 

 lunular marks, the fifth from the costa obliquely placed, a

 another close to the margin. Underside very beautifully
