Miss E. M. Sliarpe on neio 



this border is much darker in R. Crocljeri ; there is a distinct dark 

 shading along the costa and each side of the transverse ochraceous 

 bands, being much darker and more pronounced in B. Crockeri, 

 Butl. 



Hind wing ochraceous, with 

 greenish reflexions and broad 

 dark green subterminal band, 

 the white on the scalloped hind 

 margin very distinct. No black 

 basal area. 



Underside : very similar to that 

 of R. Groclceri, the general colour 

 being more yellow, with the 

 black markings much fainter. 

 In the discoidal cell there are 

 only two small black spots on 

 the fore wing, with a small 

 patch of apple-green in the 

 cell. 



Hind wing : on the costal mar- 

 gin is a streak of crimson ; the 

 discoidal cell green, and the 

 inner margin deep yellow, as in 

 R. Groclceri. 



The female ochraceous, with 

 the costa, apex, and hind mar- 

 gin deep brown. 



The yellow transverse band, 

 from the costal margin to the 

 hind margin, rather wider than 

 in the male. 



The hind wing has the whole 

 of the basal area ochraceous, with 

 a broad hind marginal border 

 brown. 



Underside much paler, with 

 the light green patch and three 

 black spots in the discoidal cell, 

 on the fore wing. The discoidal 



Hind wing : with a large 

 basal area of dark green, with 

 the discal portion ochre, which 

 colour occupies the centre of the 

 wing, this again shading into 

 green near the black hind mar- 

 gin, which is very broad, and 

 shows very indistinctly the 

 white on the scalloped edge. 



Underside : deep j^ellow, with 

 the discoidal cell green, and. 

 three black spots very distinct 

 in the cell. At the end of the 

 discoidal cell there are two black 

 transverse lines, the outer one 

 near the apes, extending to the 

 first median nervule of the fore 

 wing. 



Hind wing yellow, with a 

 broad deep crimson streak on 

 the costal margin. 



The discoidal cell green, with 

 two black spots in the cell near 

 the base ; round this green patch 

 is a row of black spots between 

 the nervules, commencing above 

 the subcostal nervule to just be- 

 low the discoidal or radial ner- 

 vule ; there is also a small black 

 transverse line. 



The female is very similar to 

 the male, but is larger.
