This species is commonly regarded as a variety of J. octavia, 

 but there is not a particle of evidence in support of this opinion ; 

 in the present collection it is common and constant enough to 

 justify its separation from Cramer's species. It differs as follows : — 

 Tt is considerably larger (60-6.5 millim. in expanse), is of a bright 

 rosy red colour, paler in the centre of the disk ; all the black 

 markings are less heavy in character, the bar at end of cell in 

 primaries isolated, whereas in J. /octavia it forms part of a broader 

 and angular band which crosses the vdng, and the marginal lunules 

 on the under surface are bluish, instead of chalk-white. It is a 

 constant local representative of C. octavia, which does not occur in 

 the present collection.
