the basal and apical areas of primaries and the whole surface of the 
secondaries are bright ochreous, only a little paler than in that 
species. Expanse of wings 56 millim.

It is evident that this form is regarded by collectors in India as 
the spring brood of B. mesentina ; but, so far as I have been able 
to ascertain, this is not an ascertained fact, whilst the existence of a 
species representing it in Ceylon is strong evidence to the contrary. 
Though apparently commoner in the North-west Provinces, this 
form does occur in the East ; the male, though very like B. mesentina 
on the upper surface, has the apical area of the primaries and whole 
surface of secondaries on the underside of a deep cream-colour more 
or less tinged with chrome-yellow.

This is the common form of India, of which it is possible that 
B. mesentina may be a variety ; the latter, however, differs on the 
under surface in the great breadth of the brown veins on the apical 
area of primaries and the whole of secondaries. 
«Common in May, June, and July, and again in October and 
November ; a few to be seen in December : the spring brood is much 
the darkest. The caterpillar feeds on a caper with dark red 
blossom (Capparis horrida’?).”—J. W. Y. 
It is a significant fact that the only male sent to us in this 
collection should not belong to the dark form supposed to be the 
spring brood.
