Imago. — Male and Female. Very similar to N. feisihamelii, the wings somewhat 

 shorter and broader, the post-medial white band of the forewing very similar both 

 above and below, but there is a small white spot opposite the cell end, towards the 

 outer margin, and there are no sub-apical dots, and on the underside of the hindwing 

 there is a small white spot inside the end of the cell and another below it, nearly half 

 way between it and the outer margin, and there is a white mark on each side of the 

 face as in N. restricta. 



Expanse of wings, ^ ? lyg- to l-j^ inches. 



Habitat. — Andaman Islands. 



We possess examples of both sexes from Port Blair.
