234 LEPIDOPTERA INDICA. 
spaces forming between the veins a series of seven lunules; the outer edge of the 
band having the tips of the veins indicated by fulvous points, and the lower end of 
the band terminating in a narrower lunular end at the submedian vein; at the end 
of the cell is a slender, dusky lunule, with a continuous outer upper black streak, 
beyond which is a subcostal short narrow black broken curved mark. Hindwing 
with two medial costal short slender black sinuous lines below the costal vein, the 
outer line being continued below the subcostal; beyond is a submarginal decreasing 
row of black spots centred by a white dentate point, the upper spots being ovate, the 
lower dentate. Underside ochreous-yellow. Both wings crossed by four or five 
slender black sinuous lines on the basal half, the interspace between the two outer 
lines being dull fulvous; a discal less-defined fulvous line with diffused border, 
followed, on the forewing, by a submarginal series of slightly-defined pearly-white 
lunules, the upper two being broadest and dentate, and their outline diffused with 
fulvous; and on the hindwing the discal line is followed by a slight dusky grey- 
speckled dark fulvous sinuous fascia, and then by a submarginal series of pearly- 
white dentate marks, of which the posterior marks are tipt with blue scales and a 
black point. 
Female. Upperside with the discal area, and middle of costa on hindwing 
paler fulvous than in the male. Forewing with the outer discal sinuous line dis- 
tinctly defined and blackish, the cell mark and the subcostal streak beyond broader 
black, the submarginal sinuous line blackish and slender to its costal end, but with 
the marginal black border as in the male. Hindwing with the costal sinuous marks 
and the submarginal row of spots as in the male, the latter only being somewhat 
larger and more distinctly white centred. Underside exactly as in the male. Body 
bright fulyous ; palpi above brown, white beneath; pectus white; legs above pale 
ochreous, whitish beneath; fore tarsi white; antenne blackish, club tipt with

Hasitat.—Sikkim ; Bhotan; Assam; Naga Hills; Burma; Tenasserim. 
Disrripution.—In Sikkim, according to Mr. L. de Nicéville (Butt. Ind. ii, 282), 
this species is the commonest of the group. ‘‘ It occurs from April to October at 
low elevations, the female being much rarer than the male” (Sikkim Gazetteer, 
1894, 148). Specimens taken in Sikkim in July and November by Mr. Otto 
Moller are in Mr. W. Rothschild’s collection, It has been taken at Buxa in Bhotan 
by Mr. G. C. Dudgeon. It also occurs in Assam and Sylhet. We have it from the 
Naga Hills, and specimens from the Garo Hills arein Mr. W. Rothschild’s collection. 
Major C. H. E. Adamson obtained it at Bhamo, Burma, and Mr. W. Doherty 
obtained it in Hast Pegu. Both sexes from Taipang, Malay Peninsula, are in 
Mr. W. Rothschild’s collection.
