coloration, tlic medial oblique baud of the fore wing is 

 narrower, does not expand on the hinder margin, and is 

 dark brown, instead of pinkish red as in that species : it 

 differs from ^1. modicat'is, Guen., in its white hind wiugs, the 

 latter having blackish-brown hind wings, and the entire fore 

 wings suffused with brown : the markings are somewhat 

 similar to those of oslenta/is, but sumatralis can at once be 

 separated by the great difference in colour, there being an 

 entire absence of the pinkish-red band and stripes of that 

 species. 



Expanse of wings H inch. 



Podang, Sumatra ; six examples. 



There is an example in the B. Af. from Padang with

 the fore wings disjointed in the middle.
