 beyond one-third from the apex to posterior angle, the black slightly extending 

 inward aloug the veins for some distance and also more prominentljr along the 

 subcostal and the two upper medians, enclosing two or three subapical white 

 speckled slender short streaks and a triangular spot between the upper medians; 

 between the lower median and submedian a slightly-defined lunular cluster of blackish 

 scales is generally present, these scales sometimes extending to the posterior mai'gin. 

 Hinclioiiig with a black upper outer marginal macular — or sometimes a continuous 

 dentated band, the lower margin being dark grey scaled and having a submarginal 

 series of similar grey or blackish scaled sagittate confiueut marks. Underside. 

 Foreioing white, the costa and apical interspaces olive-yellow, the veins blackish- 

 bordered, darkest and broadest within the cell, along the subcostal, the median and 

 its two upper branches, including the two lower discal bars. Eindwmg olive-yellow, 

 with the veins broadly, and the submarginal sagittate confluent-mai'ks, blackish 

 scaled. 



Female. Upperside white. Foretvimj with the costa, borders of the cell and the 

 outer veins more or less broadly brownish-black, the medial area of cell, discal streaks, 

 and submai\ginal spots only being white, the apical spots sometimes being yellow- 

 tinted. Hindwing with the costal border, subcostal, median and its upper branch, a 

 discal more or less broad sagittate band and a partly conflueat outer-marginal band 

 brownish-black, the medial area of cell, the discal streaks and lower submarginal 

 interspaces only being white or greyish-white, the anal area sometimes being 

 ochrcous tinted. Underside similar to tho male, except that on the hindwing the 

 medial area of the cell and lower discal streaks are whitish.
