subapical patch separated by a well-defined white edge from the 

 dark border ; the secondaries without marginal spots : below 

 opaline white ; the primaries with a small black transverse spot 

 on the discocellulars ; no other markings. Expanse of wings 54 

 millimetres. 



The specimen is a good deal worn, therefore the under surface, 

 when fresh, may have been far more pink in tint. 



The female much resembles the insect figured by Miss Sharpe 

 under T. punieeus (Mon. Ter. pi. 14. fig. 1 g), but is rather larger 

 and has much better defined marginal spots to the secondaries. 

 On the under surface the apical area of the primaries and whole 

 of secondaries are sprinkled and transversely striated with pale 

 sandy olivaceous, the discal series of spots on the primaries and 

 oblique transverse stripe on the secondaries being darker olivaceous; 

 the discocellular spot on the primaries is small and black, that on 

 the secondaries large and white. Expanse of wings 02 millimetres. 

 Of the female Mr. C'rawshay says : — " Pale yellow oval ova. 

 This is a butterfly altogether new to me." And of the male : — " An 

 insect which I have no recollection of taking before ; the only 

 specimen seen.'"'
