the outer margin from the middle of the costa, graduall}- narrowing and becoming obsolete 
towards the lowest median nervule ; an oval dark ring crossing the cell and an indistinct 
submarginal row of dark green hastate spots. 
" Underside olivaceous yellow. On the anterior wings the yellowish-green band is more clearly 
defined and edged on each side with black, narrowly towards the costa, gradually and 
irregularly becoming broader towards the submedian nervure, where it ceases. Posterior 
wings with the pale greenish-^-ellow curved band as above, bordered on each side with 
olivaceous green, the space round the spots in the cell and on the outer margin being the 
same colour as the central band. 
" Expanse of wings '2i inches. 
"Nearest to E. onieia, 'Leech, wliich it resembles in colour, but the posterior 
Avings are very different. 
"Five specimens were sent, apparently all males. Omei-shan, "Western 
China." {Grose Smith, I. c.) 
This species will be figured in a future part of ' Exotic Butterflies ' by 
Grose Smith and Kirby.

" Mule. Upperside : anterior wings with the basal half dark green, almost black, the outer half 
paler and slightly metallic, the veins, with streaks between them on the paler portion of the 
wings, being the same colour as the basal half ; the cell is crossed in the middle by an 
irregular crimson bar, and there is another crimson bar, narrower and somewhat indistinct, 
at the end of the cell. Posterior wings the same colour as the basal half of the anterior 
■wings, being paler across the disk and traversed by the dark veins with streaks between, as 
on the outer half of the anterior wings ; two dark bars across the cell, and there is a crimson 
elongate spot parallel with the outer margin between the submedian nervure and the lowest 
median nervule ; the costal margin is pale and tinged with a bluish shade. 
'■ Underside similar to the uppersidc, but paler. Anterior wings with the crimson bars across and 
at the end of the cell wider and more distinct, and a small black spot below the median 
nervure at its junction with the lowest median nervule. Posterior wings WT^th two crimson 
bars crossing the cell, two crimson spots below the costal nervure and upper median nervule 
respectively, another crimson spot on the costal margin near the precostal nervure, and 
another at the base ; on the outer margin at the ends of the dark streaks between the veins is 
a row of crimson spots, those nearest the anal angle the most distinct, and those in the middle 
nearly obsolete ; the iziner margin from the base to the anal angle is broadly edged with 
crimson. Antennae black, the collar and palpi crimson. 
" Expanse of wings 2| inches. 
" One specimen only. Omei-shan, A^^estern China. 
"Allied to E. luientina, Cramer, var. hidonia, Staudinger, and ivhiteheadi, 
Grose Smith." {Grose Smith, I. c.) 
Grose Smith and Kirby will figure this species in a future part of 'Exotic 
Butterflies.'
