submedian interspace from its base to one-fourth from the margin; a narrow 
streak in the sutural area fromthe base reaching to one-fourth from the outer 
margin; a curved submarginal series of seven rounded spots; a few obscure 
marginal dots towards the anal angle. Hindwing with the outer third 
castaneous darkening to the margin, the rest of the wing pale hyaline bluish 5 
the discoidal cell bears outwardly two narrow castaneous streaks ; two small 
subapical round bluish spots divided by the second subcostal nervule; the usual 
secondary sexual characters of the subgenus at the anal angle. UNDERSIDE, 
Forewing marked as above, but the black ground-colour at the apex and outer 
margin tinted with dull castaneous. Aindwing as above, but the outer margin 
bears an anterior decreasing submarginal series of small round spots, and an 
incomplete (not reaching the apex) marginal series of dots. FEMALE, differs from 
the male only in its much broader wings, the outer margin of the forewing 
slightly, instead of deeply, emarginate, the /indwing has the outer margin 
rounder, less obliquely cut off, and the castaneous colouring much redder ; 
the male secondary characters, of course, are absent. 
Allied to, but quite distinct from, D. tytia, Gray, which occurs throughout 
the Himalayas, Assam, Burma, with a slight variety in the Malay Peninsula. 
Differs therefrom in its much smaller size, conspicuously narrower wings, the 
male has the outer margin of the forewing much more deeply excavated, the 
hindwing with the outer margin nearly straight instead of rounded, greatly cut 
off obliquely ; in both sexes the forewing has the hyaline portion of the cell 
less than half as wide, the streak in the subcostal interspace very small and 
narrow ; the hindwing in the male deep dull castaneous instead of ferruginous. 
Of the D. tytia group of the subgenus Caduga there are at present known, 
besides that species, D. niphonica, Moore, from Japan and doubtfully from 
Askold, North Formosa, and Chekiang, North China*; and D. loochooana, 
Moore, from the Loo Choo Islands. The occurrence of a fourth species so far 
south as Sumatra is very interesting. 
D. tytioides is admirably mimicked by Hestina caroline, Snellen, an insular 
modified race of the continental Indian Hestina nama, Doubleday. 
Described from three males and three females, which show but slight indivi- 
dual differences.

* This species is entirely ignored by Mr. J, H. Leech in his “ Butterflies from China, 
Japan, and Corea ;” he considers that the species occurring in those regions is D. tytia, 
and records it from “ China common, is found all over Japan, and has been recorded 
by Oberthiiz from the Isle of Askold.”’
