large conjoined spots between lower angle of cell and inner margin, 

 connected by streaks on veins 2 and 1 with the terminal band which 

 expands very widely on apical area down to vein 4 and narrows to a 

 point at tornus ; a white spot on it above vein 6 and usually another 

 above vein 3.

 of antennae with white points ; a white rim behind eyes ; tegulge 

 sometimes with minute white points ; patagia with large yellow 

 patches ; coxa? with the hair orange ; abdomen orange, with dorsal 

 black bands and lateral and ventral series of spots. Fore wing 

 with two blue spots below base of costa and two on vein 1 ; a small 

 antemedial white spot in cell : a quadrate white spot in middle of 

 •cell with two streaks above it and a spot below base of vein 2 ; 

 three small spots beyond upper angle of cell and one or two beyond 

 lower angle ; a curved subterminal series of small spots, the spots 

 above veins 2 and 3 sometimes absent. Hind wing orange ; the 

 base black ; the costal area black ; a rounded spot at upper angle of 

 cell, often conjoined to the costal fascia ; a band formed by two 

 conjoined spots between lower angle of cell and inner margin, con- 

 nected by streaks on veins 2 and 1 with the terminal band which 

 expands very widely on apical area down to vein 5 and narrows to 

 a point at tornus, with a white spot on it above vein 6, often with 

 smaller spots between it and vein 2.
