164 Mr. W. F. Kirby on Lepidoptera 
wings strongly arched. Fore wings sky-blue, costa and hind 
margin bordered with black, fringes white, spotted with black 
at the ends of the nervures, a comparatively narrow white 
band, divided by the nervures, running from the inner margin 
to above the median nervure. Hind wings pale blue at the 
base, followed by a white band continuous with that on the 
fore wings; the outer half of the wing is black, the upper 
portion being filled up with blue from the white band nearly 
to the hind margin. Fringes white, spotted with black on 
the nervures. 
Underside black, sometimes paler towards the margins; 
the white bands on the wings as above, but more sharply 
defined on the fore wings and continuous, a blue stripe 
divided by the nervures intersects the dark costal portion of 
the wing and curves downwards on the hind margin, 
where it is more macular, as far as the lowest branch of 
the median nervure; on the hind wings the black basal part 
is intersected by an oblique blue stripe, and there is another 
along the basal part of the inner margin ; on the wide black 
border is a row of large oval black spots surrounded with 
blue. 
Head white, a spot between the antenne (which are black, 
spotted with white beneath) and hinder orbits pale blue; a 
black stripe runs from the frontal blue spot to the palpi, 
which are black beneath and at the tips; thorax black or 
brown, clothed above with shaggy white hair; legs black, 
tarsi narrowly spotted with white; abdomen black above, 
ringed with blue, and more or less blue towards the base; 
beneath white. 
Female.—Blackish brown, with a white band, as in the 
male, but that on the fore wings is wider, better defined, and 
divided by the branches of the median nervure; that on the 
hind wings is narrower, so that the black border covers two 
thirds of the wing. The hind margin of the fore wings is 
more convex than in the male. The under surface differs 
little, but the blue submarginal band on the fore wings 
descends nearly to the submedian nervure. 
Six males and one female taken at Normunby on Oct. 380, 
1888. 
Size of 7. sebw, Westw., but the male more resembles 7. 
danis, Cram., in its markings and the female has the fore 
wings more convex and the hind wings more widely bordered 
with black. The under surface in both sexes is of a less 
greenish blue.
