interspaces ; the inferior extremity of the belt abruptly narrowed ; 

 a submarginal series of white spots, or grey spots with white 

 centres, the last two bordered external^ A^-ith lilac ; still nearer 

 to the margin an interrupted blue-edged red stripe changing to 

 oliye-green at anal angle. Belo\\', rather more silvery than in the 

 male and crossed by a broad uhite belt as above, but the angular 

 series of spots on the primaries forming a coutinuous band, bound- 

 ing the outer edge of the belt to submediaii vein and only divided 

 by the dark nervures ; markings beyond the belt on the secondaries 

 better defined than in the male. Expanse of wings 67-69 millim. 

 Two females, Zomba.

One much damaged example, Zomba. 



It being generally decided that my name of C. jocaste has no 

 claim to recognition, I yield the point rather than show myself 

 eccentric ; so long as all are agreed, it matters little what name a 

 species is known by.

One of the specimens obtained by Mr. McClounie at Zomba is 

 of interest, inasmuch as on the upper surface it is distinctly blue, 

 instead of green shading into blue ; the outline of the basal blue 

 area on the primaries is also irregular, a large quadrate black patch, 

 bounded externally by three blue spots, filling the end of the cell ; 

 underneath, the ground-colour is decidedly more rufous than usual. 

 These differences are clearly individual.
