nervules, the submedian nervure, and in the submedian interspace ; the third median nervule 
has a narrower patch, and there is a black streak in each interspace above and also between 
the second and third nervules ; fringes white. Secondaries have the costal area suffused with 
bright blue and a submarginal series of connected blue lunules followed by reddish ones ; the 
lower horn of the fourth and the upper horn of the fifth blue lunules are prolonged nearly to 
the end of the tail ; the outer margin is sinuate and the fringes of each sinus are white.

Expanse, S 120-160 miUim., ? 126-166 millira. 
The above descriptions refer to the sexes of the summer brood of P. bianor 
from China. The individuals of the spring brood from the same country, 
Avhich do not seem to have been previously noticed, are smaller, ranging in 
expanse from 97 to 114 millim. in the male, and from 100 to 118 millim. in 
the female. Cramer's figure appears to represent a female specimen of the 
summer brood.
