 In the Collection of W. C. Hewitson, from Sumatra. 



Very closely allied to M. Thesmia, from which it does not differ above, except in the nearly 

 straight inner margin of the anterior wing of the male. On the underside the transverse band 

 of the anterior wing is a sufficient distinction.

Closely allied to M. Ravindra : although the males are very different, the females are alike 

 on the upperside. On the underside this species differs from Ravindra chiefly in having the 

 lower spots of the posterior wing represented by double lines. A male, in the Collection of 

 Mr. Wallace, has a rufous spot at the centre of the anterior wing, as represented in the accom- 

 panying figure.
