Male. Hind wing below white, with a blackish border round the costa and termen, 

 its inner edge snifused ; a feebly indicated dark spot near the middle of cell 3, a 

 geminate spot in cells 4-5 and a larger one in cell 6 blackish. In the female the 

 hind wing below is paler and the pale discal portion is bluish white.

 Tagiades pteria, Semper, Schmett. Philipp. p. 308 (1892). 



In this species the hind wing above resembles that of T. pralaya or T. trichoneura, 

 save that the pale part is white or yellowish white instead of yellow ; it is distinguished 

 from these species by the small and roundish hyaline spots in cells 2 and 3 and the 

 want of hyaline spots in cells 10 and 11 of the fore wing.

Pterygospidea menaka, Moore, P. Z. S. 1865, p. 778. 



Tagiades atticus, Leech, Butt. China &c. pi. xxxviii. fig. 13, (1892-94), nee Fabr. 



The dark spot near the apical third of cell 1 S iu the hind wing is absolutely 

 diagnostic of this species. It does not appear that this species ever has more than 

 one pale spot in the cell of the fore wing, but this character alone will not separate 

 it from those specimens of T. atticus which want the lowermost pale spot in the cell 

 of the fore wing.
