130 LEPIDOPTERA IXBICA. 



wings, very rarely descending to the ground. It invariably returns to the same 

 spot when frightened off, so if its resting-place is within reach, the butterfly, with 

 patience, can be secured with certainty. To capture one specimen my men and I 

 had to construct three high platforms of bamboo adjoining three trees between which 

 P. Belisama continually flew backwards and forwards. After some time we managed 

 to secure the specimen " (L. de Niceville, Journ. Bombay N. H. Soc. 1899).

Imago. — Male. Wings short, broad. Foreiving triangular; costa very much 

 arched, slightly indented near the base, apex truncate and obliquely-angulated 

 outward to below the upper radial, deeply concave below it, sinuous, and broadly 

 angled outward at the lower median veinlet, posterior angle rounded, posterior 

 margin much recurved ; costal vein extending to middle of the margin ; first 

 and second subcostal branches emitted near together before end of the cell, 

 third branch, at three-fifths beyond the cell, fourth and fifth at one-fifth from the 

 apex; upper discocellular short and outwardly-oblique, middle discocellular 

 practically obsolete, as the lower radial starts from the same point, lower dis- 

 cocellular absent and the cell entirely open ; two upper median branches from 

 opposite the discocellular ; submedian vein straight. Hindunng somewhat quadrate; 

 anterior margin lobate at the base, and thence oblique to the apex, exterior margin 

 sinuous, almost erect from the apex to end of radial, where it is prolonged into a 

 blunt tail and from thence concave to anal angle, which latter is broadly produced, 

 the abdominal margin being excavated above the anal angle and more deeply so 

 between the submedian and internal vein ; precostal vein strongly bent outwards ; 

 costal vein strongly arched from the base, running close to the margin and ending 

 at the apex ; radial from close to base of lower subcostal ; cell open. J3ody
