Male. Upperside much paler than the Wet-season form, and of a lilacine blue. 
Forewing with a large whitish patch in the middle ; a blackish costal line, and a black 
outer marginal band, nearly as broad as in the other form, often narrow hindwards, 
and becomes diffused at the hinder angle. Hindwing with a pale blackish suffused 
costal band, which becomes dark at the apex, where there is more or less of a patch ; a 
black marginal line, which is sometimes very thin, and has on its inner side a row o 
small black lunules, but in many examples this line is broad and covers the lunules 
Underside as in the Wet-season form, the markings very small and slender. 
Female, similar to the female of the Wet-season form, but the ground colour of 
both wings is nearly all white above ; the basal and lower portion of the forewing and 
the abdominal portion of the hind wing being suffused with blackish and covered with

Expanse of wings, £ $ 1 T % inches. 
Habitat. —Sikkim, Assam. 
Bingham put this species as a synonym to L. jynteana , but Dr. Chapman has 
proved its distinctness by the examination of the genitalia; we have received many 
examples from the Khasia Hills; both the seasonal examples from which this 
description has been made have been examined and identified by Dr. Chapman as a 
form of L. argiolus, which jynteana is not.
