Imago. —Male. Upperside white. Forewing with the base and costa slightly 
greyish-black scaled ; a black apical marginal band, which is deeply sinnons from 
below the lower subcostal veinlet, a large discal spot between the upper and middle 
median veinlet, and faint traces of the lower spot of the underside between the 
lower median and submedian vein. Rindwing with a more or less prominent black 
large costal spot and a series of outer marginal spots. Underside. Foreiving white, 
the apex pale olivescent-yellow ; base greyish-black scaled; a black middle and 
lower discal large spot, and a more or less apparent blackisli-scaled upper discal 
spot. Ilinclwing pale olivescent-yellow, more or less distinctly irrorated with minute 
greyish-black scales—which are more densely packed along lower half of the cell, 
and also as forming the costal spot, sometimes these scales are more densely packed 
and border the veins to the outer margin ; base of the costa bright yellow. 
Female. Upperside white, in some specimens'—but very rarely—pale yellowish- 
white. Foreiving with the base, including the cell area to near its end, more thickly 
greyish-black scaled, the black apical marginal band more sharply sinuous, the two 
discal spots larger and prominent, the upper one sometimes coalesced to the angles 
of outer band, the lower one joined to a streak below the submedian vein. Rindwing 
with the basal area, including the cell, more or less irrorated with greyish-black 
scales, some of these scales occasionally also forming a discal cluster between the 
upper and middle median veinlet; the black costal spot larger and extending below 
the lower subcostal veinlet; marginal spots larger. Underside similar to the male. 
Expanse, S 1^, to 2^, ? 2 to 2^ inches. 
Habitat. —North-West, Central, and Eastern Himalayas; S. India; Assam; 
Upper Burma; Shan States; China; Hong Kong ; Hainan; Formosa.
