border, but with an anteciliary black thread only. Hindwing with a fine 

 marginal white thread anterior to the black marginal thread, the latter 

 outwardly bounded by a still finer white thread ; on the abdominal 

 margin anterior to the anal angle is a short black line defined on both 

 sides with white. Underside, both wings pale brownish-grey ; with 

 three prominent marginal white lines enclosing a series of lunular spots 

 somewhat darker than the ground, the innermost is the broadest, is 

 nearly straight in the forewing, highly lunulated in the hindwing, the 

 middle line is highly lunulated on both wings, the outer line is the 

 narrowest and quite straight ; an anteciliary black thread. Forewing 

 with the usual four discal white strigas, the innermost arises from the 

 subcostal uervure, crosses the discoidal cell, and ends on the submedian 

 nervure; the second arises from the upper discoidal nervule, is some- 

 what broken in its course, and ends on the submedian nervure ; there 

 are two white dots on the costa in continuation of these two lines ; 

 the third arises on the costa, and rims into the second at the third 

 median nervule, forming with it a Y-shaped figure ; the fourth arises 

 on the costa, and ends on the second median nervule. Hindioing 

 with the usual basal and discal white strigse; an oval deep black spot 

 on the margin in the first median interspace, surrounded on three 

 sides by a narrow ferruginous line, bearing at its inner and outer sides 

 some metallic pale green scales ; a black spot at the anal angle 

 crowned with metallic pale green scales. Female. Uppbrside, both 

 wings pale bluish- white without any metallic lustre. Forewing with 

 the apes very broadly black, the outer margin also broadly black, 

 though less so than the apex. Hindioing with the costa as far as the 

 second subcostal nervule black ; the outer margin broadly black, 

 bearing a series of oval white spots with black centres between the 

 veins, the one in the first median interspace the largest, the one in 

 the submedian interspace linear instead of circular ; a fine ante- 

 ciliary black thread outwardly defined by a still finer white thread. 

 Underside, both xoings as in the male, except that the two spaces of 

 the ground-colour enclosed by the three marginal white lines are 

 much darker than in the male, and present the appearance of two 

 series of fuscous spots.

 from Malacca, in the British Museum, and informs me that it is
