In the form with the obsolete ocelli the -basal two-thirds of the wings are ochreons-brown and the outer third with the abdominal margin of the hindwing is purplish-grey. [...] The prevailing form of this species is therefore M. khasiana in the dry-season and true M. ma/sarida in the wet-season and the occasional appearance of the one form or the other out of its proper season will not upset the main fact of the occurrence of two distinct well-marked forms corresponding to the seasons the dry and the wet into which the Indian climate may be primarily divided. [...] the end of the discoidal cell and an indistinct broken basal narrow white streak ; three subapical oval white spots divided by the discoidal nervules the upper the smallest the lower rather larger the middle spot the largest ; an oblique discal series of three white spots the upper in the first median interspace largo and oval touching its bounding norvules the one below in the submedian int [...] Nearest to Poritia " pharyge Hewitson from Perak and Borneo from which it may at once be distinguished by the absence of the three subapical and six marginal blue spots and the broad streak in the intornmedian area on the uppersido of the forewing and the much greater extent of blue coloration on the upperside of the hindwing ; the marings of the underside also are very different. [...] UNDERSIDE forewing pale chrome-yellow the inner margin below the median nervuro fuscous beyond and below the first median nervulo whitish ; a very short black streak from the base of the wing touching the costal nervure posteriorly ; a small oval spot beyond in the discoidal cell ; another crossing the cell from the base of the first median nervnle to the costa ; an oblique discal band from the
