species and eleala Hew. ; a black linear discocellular streak ; inner 

 margin near base with a distinct lobe much more marked than in 

 elealodes. 



Secondaries. Costal and inner margins dusky ; remainder of 

 wing flushed deep blue ; anal lobe of medium size (much more 

 marked than in elealodes), bright fulvous orange ; a well marked 

 whitish, black-tipped tail on vein 1 b, and a rudimentary one on 

 vein 2. Between veins 1 b and 2 a well-marked sex-patch of long 

 black hairs, much more developed than in elealodes. 



Underside. — Both wings whitish, with a linear pale ochreous 

 discocellular streak. 



In primaries a pale ochreous waved line from costa nearly to 

 hind margin, lying about midway between cell-end and outer 

 margin. This line is narrower, less straight and much more 

 distally placed than in elealodes ; a second less distinct, sub- 

 marginal line of same colour lies parallel to outer margin, which 

 is dirty whitish. A black sex-mark in area 1 b below cell-middle. 



Secondaries have the two lines and margins as primaries. 

 Between veins 2 and 3 a large black eye- spot surrounded by 

 orange-ochreous ; in anal lobe a minute black eye-spot outlined 

 in metallic blue contiguous with a well-marked orange-red patch 

 lying toward inner margin, on margin a narrow line of black 

 from vein 6 to anal lobe. 



Fringe grey on primaries, white on secondaries ; palpi white, 

 the terminal segment black ; thorax above dark grey with a few 

 pale blue scales and hairs ; abdomen above dusky, laterally the 

 segments edged with pale blue, below white. 



Length of primary 16-5 mm. 



The female differs from the male in being slightly larger and 

 paler and in wanting the sex-marks.
