I have not seen the female of this species, but believe 

 A. Dohertyi to represent that sex.

The secondaries of the female vary much in colouring on 

 the upper surface, but whether the differences are seasonal or 

 not is not known ; one of our examples has these wings 

 bright yellow, with the usual broad deep brown borders. I 

 think T. asteria is only a variety of this sex.
