" Upperside dark vinous olive-brown, with three very indistinct 

 transverse macular fasciae ; forewing with two very minute semi- 

 transparent white spots at end of the cell, another above it, three before 

 the apex, and two less distinct on middle of the disc, all bordered by the 

 macular fascia. Cilia of forewing edged with white; cilia of hindwing 

 entirely white. Underside : forewing as above and sparsely grey speck- 

 led : hindwing thickly covered with greyish-white, leaving only the costal 

 border and discal macular fascia brown.

Differs from S. dasahara in the hindwing being more prominently 

 white and the cilia also being entirely white." (Moore, I. c.) 



Habitat: Ceylon ( Wade, Mackwood); Nilgiris(Hampson). 



Mr. Hampson notes that Nilgiri specimens differ from Ceylon ones 

 in being dusky instead of white on the underside of the hindwing.

" Allied to typical Pamphila (P. comma) ; forewing more acutely tri- 

 angular ; cell somewhat broader ; fourth and fifth subcostal branches 

 and upper radial closer together at their base ; disco-cellulars more oblique, 

 upper much longer ; middle median at one-fourth and lower at two-fourths 

 before end of the cell (instead of about one-sixth and four-sixths respective- 

 ly, as in P. comma) : glandular streak in male more erect, its surface 

 smooth, and extending from submedian to upper median veins ; hindwing 

 more produced and lobular at anal angle ; second subcostal at one- 

 third before end of the cell, bent downward from its base and in a line 

 with disco-cellulars, which are slightly recurved ; radial invisible. Body 

 stout ; palpi very compactly clothed ; legs more slender, femora and 

 tibiae much less hairy, hind tibiae shorter, and tarsi longer ; antennal 

 club longer, not so thick, and with a lengthened tip.
