Wet-season Brood (Figs. 1, la, Ic, id). 



Imago.— Male. Upperside white. Forewing with the costal line black, a large 

 orange-yellow apical patch, margined on its outer side with a black band, a little 

 narrow in its middle and broadly thickened at its lower end, the inner black margin 

 to the band narrow, thickened somewhat at both ends, indications of a slight shadowy 

 band through the centre of the patch, the black bands meeting at the lower end of the 

 patch fine hindwards to a point almost touching the lower angle of the wing. Hind- 

 wintj with four or five black spots on the exterior margin, on the veins. Underside 

 white. Foreicing with the orange patch showing through the wing with a band of five 

 or six spots more or less joined together running through its centre. Hindwing with a 

 brown spot on the costa a little beyond its middle. 



Female. Upperside white, with a few grey scales towards the base. Furewings 

 with the orange patch reduced to a band of four, five or six spots, the orange colour 

 much paler than in the male, the black outer and inner bands broad, the inner band 

 recurved, elbowed inwardly before reaching its lower end, where it sometimes stops 

 abruptly, and in some examples is joined to the outer band and narrows hindwards as 

 in the male ; a small black spot at the end of the cell. Hindwings with the black 

 spots on the exterior margin as in the male, but generally larger. Underside white. 

 Forewing with the apical patch showing through the wing, the inner black band well 

 pronounced with a blackish -brown spot below it, immediately below vein 2, also 

 a spot at the end of the cell. Hindwing usually tinged with orange-ochreous and 

 covered with ochreous-brown strigse, sometimes more, sometimes less, a black dot at 

 the end of the cell, a discal irregular brown macular band, angled outwardly below its 

 middle, often broken and incomplete, and brown spots on the veins on the exterior 

 margin. Antennae, head, thorax and abdomen black, antennae speckled with white at 

 its sides, head and thorax clothed with short grey brown hairs. 



Expanse, $ ? IfV inches. 



Dry-season Brood (Figs, le, If, ih = Eucharis). 



Male. Upperside white. Forewing with the costal line paler, the orange-}'ellow 

 apical patch larger, because the outer black band is narrower and the inner band is 

 altogether absent except for a brown spot aboA-e vein 3, and there is no thickening of
