Race ramsayi, Moore. — Differs in being on the whole larger, 

 with the white markings of great width, in the 2 almost entirely 

 filling the cell in the hind wing. In both sexes streaks are always 

 present in interspaces 3 and 4 of the hind wing, while the sub- 

 terminal and terminal series of spots on that wing are generally 

 complete. The $ in all the specimens I have examined has a 

 decided blue gloss on the apical half of the fore wing. 



Exp. <S 2 96-102 mm. (3-8-4").

<5 . Fore wing very variable in shape, especially in the outline 

 of the termen and dorsum. In the type it is comparatively long 

 in proportion to width owing to the less convexity of the dorsal 

 margin, and has the termen oblique, slightly convex ; in var. novara 

 it is remarkably broad, the great convexity of the dorsal margin 

 making it almost subquadrate, while the termen is more convex 

 than in the typical form. In the 2 the difference is less 

 marked.
