 ochreous ; antemedial orange

 nervure and inner margin ; both

 Euchloris siibtiliaria, $ . \. ochreous, with a series of orange, 



fuscous, and silvery stria3. 



In the type of Icesaria the specks of the postmedial series are much 

 reduced in number ; the marginal markings have no dark tints and 

 at vein 4 of hind wing run out on to the cilia, giving the margin 

 an angulated appearance. The typical race from Japan and 

 the Himalayas is usually bluer green than meritaria ; the orange
