Imago.— Male. Upperside. Both wings rich purpurescent blue-black ; cilia 
alternated slightly with white. Forewing generally with a more or less slightly- 
defined submarginal row of very short longitudinal ochreous-grey scaled streaks 
between the outer veins. Findwing with a short tooth at end of the upper median 
veinlet; a transverse curved discal conspicuous cobalt-blue band, which is narrowest 
and broken at the costal end and extends to the abdominal margin above the anal 
angle, the band varying in width posteriorly from five-tenths to seven-tenths of an 
inch in its widest part, and is intersected by the black yeins, its inner edges being 
curved and the outer edges sinuous. Underside. Forewing paler purpurescent 
blue-black; the crimson streak at base of the cell either slightly defined or absent; 
the submarginal short longitudinal streaks between the veins distinct and bluish- 
grey. Findwing deep black; the crimson basal spots small and either slightly 
defined or distinct; with a transverse-discal curved row of blue-grey scaled lunules, 
the lower sometimes being more or less speckled with scarlet scales ; an anal black 
spot either partly grey or scarlet bordered, and generally one, or two, lower- 
submarginal scarlet lunules. Fead and thorax black ; abdomen fuliginous-black ;

Female. Upperside. Cilia alternated with white. Foreiving fuliginous-black;
