the second subcostal nervule, and is divided into five lengthened spots by the submedian nervure and by the 

 three median nervules, the third and fourth being larger than the others. 



The under surface of the primary wings is very similar to the upper side, both in colour and marking. The 

 under surface of the secondary wings is similar to the upper side, but the space is less in size and of a pinkish 

 white.

Male. PI. VIII. f. 9.— The primary wings bluish black, with the apical portion clearer, and on the outer 

 margin eight very minute spots of white scales ; a large space of bronzy grey between the basal half of the 

 second median nervule and the middle of the inner margin, with a subquadrate spot of white on the outer portion 

 between the second and third median nervules. The secondary wings bluish black, having the margins between 

 the dentations of the outer margm white ; and with three unequal subovate scarlet spots, placed in the middle 

 of the spaces between the discoidal and the first, second and third median nervules. 



The under surface of the primary wings is brownish black, clearer at the anterior angle, having the white 

 subquadrate spot of the upper side, but with an extra small spot of the same colour below the third median 

 nervule. The under surface of the secondary wmgs is brownish black, having the white narrow lunes between 

 the dentations of the outer margin ; but there are four spots of pinkish white, vrith some scattered scarlet scales 

 and these are continued towards the anterior angle by two small patches of scarlet scales ; while on the fold at 

 the anal angle is another scarlet spot, thus forming a curved band of seven distinct spots. 



Female. PI. VIII. f. 10.— The primary wings brownish black, havmg the apical portion clearer, with a space 

 of white in the middle of the wing that is divided mto three spots by the apex of the median nervure and the 

 base of the second median nervule ; the portion within the discoidal cell, and that between the bases of the first 

 and second median nervules, are subtriangular ; while the third is an oblong square, rounded on the outer 

 margin, and with the anterior angle only touching the median nervure. The secondary wings brownish black 

 having the outer margin between the dentations pale carmine ; a transverse curved band of six oval spots of 

 carmine extends from the anal angle to the first subcostal nervule, and is placed nearly half-way between the 

 discoidal cell and the outer margin. 



The under surface of the primary wings is very similar to the upper side both in colour and marking. The 

 under surface of the secondary wings is similar to the upper side, but the spots are of a pinkish white, and those 

 at the anal angle are smaller than two seen on the upper side.

Female. — Like the female of P. Erlaces in form and general appearance. 



The primary wmgs brownish black, with eight minute white spots on the outer margin, and a large white 

 space near the middle of the wing, composed of five unequal spots ; the first very small, and placed between, at
