obsolete, below the spots is a row of narrow white lines ; outer margin greyish- 

 black, two tails of same colour tipped white. 



Underside : bluish-grey. Anterior-wings with a submarginal row of narrow 

 pale grey lunules crowned with dark grey, inside which is a row of dark grey markings, 

 obsolete towards the costa, a pale grey line edged internally with dark grey at the 

 end of the cell. Posterior-wings with a row of black spots crowned with white and 

 dark grey markings as on the upper-side, but the black spot before the anal angle 

 is obsolete ; above these is an interrupted pale silvery-blue narrow band, inside 

 which is a row of red spots edged on each side with black, and pale grey beyond, 

 the fourth red spot the largest, extending outwardly to the row of black spots, the 

 spot above the obsolete black spot is sagittate, a black line eged with grey on both 

 6ides above the anal angle, a narrow dark line edged internally with pale grey at the 

 end of the cell.

t? . Upper-side : anterior- wings resemble Jupiter, Butl., but the spot at the 

 end of the cell is larger. Posterior-wings also resemble Jupiter, but the pale 

 ochraceous central area is more dilated ; the submarginal row of blue-green spots 

 does not extend beyond the first subcostal nervule, and is followed externally by a 

 rather broad, blue-green, sinuated band, from the second subcostal nervule to the 

 anal angle ; outer margin rather broadly black, with two black tails ; there is no 

 ferruginous spot at the anal angle. 



Under-side differs from Jupiter on anterior- wings in the white space beyond the 

 cell not being crossed by the broad black line between the second discoidal and 

 upper median nervules, the cell is white, crossed by a broad straight bar, not indented 

 as in Jupiter. On the posterior-wings the black markings are narrower, and less 

 sharply defined ; in place of the band of rufous lunules beyond the middle is an 

 olivaceous-brown band, the part of the band below the upper median nervule being 

 divided into lunules, narrower than in Jupiter, and less rufous ; the black submarginal 

 spots of Jupiter are represented by a rather broad sinuate black band, margined 

 internally by a greyish-white band, the tails are black, without any colour down 

 them. Both wings are paler and more olivaceous. 



$. Upper-side: anterior- wings resemble the male, but the spots are larger. 

 On posterior-wings the central pale area is bordered externally by a distinct row of 

 five blue-green lunules ; there is a submarginal row of elongated spots, the first 

 five partially white, the other two narrowly blue-green ; a sinuated band of blue- 

 green lunules near the margin, the colour extending down the tails, outer margin 

 rather broadly black. 



Under-side, like the male, but paler. Exp., J, 3£ in. ; $ , 4 in.
