closing the cell, a discal band of brown spots very irregular and disjointed, the terminal 
markings as on the forewing. 
Female like the male, but the forewing has generally a large white patch in the 
disc, which often extends hindwards to near the hinder margin. Cilia white, brownish 
towards apex of forewing in both sexes.

Dry-season Brood (Figs. 1c, J, Id, $). 
Male and female like the Wet-season brood, but the medial patch is white, 
generally runs down from vein 4 to the hinder margin, broadening hindwards, and 
sometimes is continued a little on the hind wing; in the female this patch is much 
broader than in the male, and is nearly always continued on the hindwing till it meets 
the cell ; the underside is also similar, but all the markings are larger and coarser. 
Antennae, head, thorax and abdomen dark brown, beneath the antennae are ringed 
with white, the palpi, thorax and abdomen pure white, the third joint of the palpi 
brown. 
Expanse of wings, £ $ 1 inch. 
Larva. — Light green, vermiform, middle segments swollen. 
Pupa. —Thick, blunt at the ends. Feeds on Sapindacae (Moore). 
Habitat. —India, Andamans, Ceylon and the Malay Peninsula. 
Distribution. —Recorded by Hampson from the Nilgiris, by Watson from the 
Chin Hills, by Elwes from the Naga and Karen Hills, by Mackinnon from Mussoorie, 
by Davidson from Karwar; in our collection from the Nicobars, Sikkim, the Khasia 
Hills and Ceylon, some of the Ceylon examples of the Wet-season brood are very 
small, one of them measures only six-tenths of an inch; it is in the B. M. also from 
Ganjam, Belgaum, Poona, Andamans, Java, Sumatra and Borneo.

Eyes naked ; antennae more than half the length of the costa of forewing; club 
well formed, long and excavated on the inner side; palpi porrect, third joint stout 
and blunt at apex in the male, cylindrical in the female. Forewing with the costa 
arched, the wing broader proportionately than it is in Pithecops, less rounded at
