Kondowi, Lower Nyika, April 6th and 11th, 1895. 



This species is new to the Museum series ; two examples were 

 obtained, one in very good condition, the other somewhat worn. 

 Mr, Crawshay calls it the " Black-and-white Qlade Butterfly."

The single specimen obtained is the most perfect I have ever 

 seen, but its chief interest lies in the fact that the markings on 

 the under surface of the wings are somewhat aberrant ; the 

 differences, if constant, would serve to distinguish it as a species, 

 but the female received from Zomba shows transitional characters. 

 Mr. Crawshay notes this as the " Burnt-umber and Silver Swallow- 

 tail," but it is one of the " Emperor " group.
