olivescent-wliite discal band, and narrower outer black border. Foreiving with an 

 elongated quadrate lower subapical spot and two small apical spots. Hindwing 

 with a prominent series of white lunular spots. Underside with the marginal

 defined. Described from a male and female, from Toungoo, in our own collection.

Imago. — Male. Upperside pale olivescent-yellow. Foreiving with a purpurescent- 

 blackish band extending from base of the costa, including the apex above and 

 beyond the middle of the median veinlet, from which it descends narrowly to the 

 posterior angle ; base of the wing and the cell area speckled with darker olivescent 

 scales ; before the apex is a rather large pale spot of the ground colour. Hindwing 

 with a submarginal row of broad purplish-black, continuous, lunular spots, each of 

 which bears a slender white lunule, the whole series being inwardly bordered with 

 olivescent-grey, and outwardly by a marginal row of ochreous lunules, the extreme 

 marginal edge and cilia being black. Underside with the costal border, the base 

 and outer border of both wings, pale purplish-brown, palest on the hindwing ; a 

 dark purplish-red narrow band inwardly bordering the broad pale olivescent discal 

 area, from the pale subapical spot on forewing to above the anal angle, this band 

 being edged by a broken black line on its basal portion of each wing and above the 

 anal angle ; along the exterior border of the discal area, on both wings, is a 

 submarginal series of black-edged lunules, those on the forewiug being narrow on 

 a pearly-white ground, and those on the hindwing broader, deep red, traversed by a 

 slender pearly-white sinuous line, and bordered inwardly by red and outwardly by 

 diffused pearly-white and a row of small black dots ; the margin being bordered by 

 ochreous lunules. 



Female. Upperside similar to the male, except that the olivescent-yellow discal 

 area is somewhat broader, and the marginal band on the hindwing is entire through- 

 out, not composed of conjoined spots, and on the underside the submarginal deep 

 red lunules are less angular. Thorax greyish-brown; abdomen olivescent; palpi
