enclosed by a double line, some bordering spots outside the cell, a large broad upper 
discal patch decreasing from the costa sinuously to near the upper median and 
traversed by a pale sinuous streak, two outer-discal large somewhat hastate marks 
between the radial and middle median, the lower one being generally broken, an 
upper submarginal series of small slender sinuous marks, the upper two being double 
and with white centre, the two lower with a white outer streak, a small similar 
sinuous mark also between the middle and lower median ; the outer margin inwardly 
blotched with reddish-ochreous ; obliquely across the disc the interspaces between 
the veins are somewhat whitish, indicating the white marks of the band on the 
upperside. Hindwing with a dark brown spot at the base of costal lobe, a streak 
from base of abdominal margin extending across base of cell to the costa, some 
streaks below the cell to abdominal margin a reniform mark in middle of the cell, 
another at its end extending to the upper subcostal veinlet, and a slender angled- 
streak beyond the cell, a small patch above the cell, some streaks below the cell, two 
broad partly-coalescent irregular upper-discal patches descending from the costa, 
followed by an outer-discal series of large conical-shaped spots—one between each of 
the interspaces—and each thickly irrorated with black and metallic-greyish-green 
scales, the anterior inwardly margined by a black and an ochreous-red outer line, the 
lower with a black line only, each also is outwardly bordered by a blackish line; the 
middle of outer margin including the upper half of the tail is dark brown, the lower 
half of the tail being green or greyish-green inwardly and whitish outwardly; anal 
lobe with a black angled-mark centred with red outwardly and bordered by green or 
greyish-green inwardly; a smaller similar streak also above anal angle. 
Female. Upperside as in male, except that the blue band on the forewing is some¬ 
what broader and its white markings also broader and longer. On the hindwing the 
apical white spots are also somewhat broader, and the lower marginal white line 
more prominent. Underside also as in male, except that on the forewing the inter¬ 
spaces between the veins obliquely across the disc—indicating the white portions of 
the band of the upperside—are broader and more defined. Body above blue-black, 
beneath whitish with blackish stripes; palpi above brown, sides white and with a 
black stripe beneath; legs blackish above, whitish beneath; antennas reddish- 
ochreous. 
Expanse, d 3 to 3^ 0 , ? 3 to 3^ 0 inches. 
Habitat. —Upper Tenasserim ; Malay Peninsula; Sumatra; Borneo. 
Distribution and Habits. —The type specimens are recorded by Mr. Butler 
from “ Tenasserim, Borneo, and Sumatra” (l.c. p. 54). Mr. Otto Limborg took it 
at “ Meetan, Upper Tenasserim, in April” (P. Z. S. 1878, 832). In Mr. F. D. 
Godman’s collection are specimens from Malawoon, Burma, taken by Mr. A. O. 
Hume, both sexes from E. Pegu, taken in March and September by Mr. W. Doherty;
