J. A. S. B. 1881, vol. 1, p. 229, $ ; p. 228, 9 (as aberrant $ of E. camorta from 

 Gt. Nic). 



$ . "Wings above and below all lighter and more broadly bordered 

 externally with paler of much the same tint as in E. camorta. 



Anterior wings above with an increasing series of three subapical spots, 

 an elongated subcostal spot, a minute dot near the end of the cell, and 

 a larger one just beyond it near the base of the interspace between the 

 second and third median veinlets, all white. 



Posterior wings above spotless. 



Wings below with the discal spots of all, and the subapical ones of the 

 anterior pair, larger and more ^^rominent, but with the submarginal series of 

 the posterior incomplete and less distinct, only two speck-like representa- 

 tives of them being present in one wing and three in the other, with a 

 short linear dash between the submedian and the first branch of the median 

 forming a seventh circumcellular mark in the posterior ones, and with all 

 the spots coloured as in the male. 



A second and smaller specimen approaches the male in the colour 

 of the upperside and in the breadth of the pale outer borders ; it lacks 

 the seventh circumcellular mark, and has only one indistinct representative 

 of the submarginal series of dots, on the underside of the posterior wings. 



Length of the anterior wing 1*88 — l'51i j whence expanse = 3*86 

 —3*18. 



Great Nicobar. 



Appears to be very closely allied to the Javan E, sepulchraliSf Butler.
