This variation is barely separable from A. serena, var. huxtoni ; 

 but the male of the latter is usually more bi'ightly coloured, with 

 blacker borders and the black lunate patch closing the cell of the 

 primaries never tending to join the outer borders by means of an 

 intermediate spot : the females of both are extremely variable.
