defined discal and an inwardly diffuse subterminal band dark 

 brown; a silvery streak between the two dark bands across the 

 cell, a trifid preapical white spot, traces of three obscure ocelli in 

 vertical order below it, and an obscure terminal brown line. Hind 

 wing : basal portion to apex of cell crossed by broken and irregular 

 silvery- white lines and bands, followed by a broad angulated discal 

 band, a postdiscal curved series of round black ocelli, a subterminal 

 silvery and a terminal ochraceous line. The ocelli white-centred, 

 with an inner ochraceous, an intermediate brown, and an outer 

 silvery ring. — 2 • Upperside : differs from the upperside in the S 

 in the outer third of the fore wing and the pale postdiscal band 

 on the hind wing being lighter in colour. The underside also 

 differs by the whole ground-colour being paler. Antennae, head, 

 thorax and abdomen dark brown, paler beneath ; antennae an- 

 nulated with white.

<3 2 • This form ought probably to be placed as a mere race of 

 L. sura. It differs on the upperside in the broad terminal margin 

 of the fore wing, and still broader margin of the hind wing, being 

 much paler. In Bhutan specimens in my collection this latter area 

 is a sort of brownish white, with the series of black spots and sub- 

 terminal and terminal dark bands conspicuous. Underside differs 

 in being much paler ; the postdiscal series of ocelli outwardly 

 broadly bordered with silvery white.

 three oblique lines of spots beyond decreasing in number to apex,
