The red anal band of the hindwing beneath is very distinct and its continuation forwards white, the tip of the tail also thinly white, ab. fixseni Leech (72 i) differs, besides themuch more variegated underside, in the forewing above bearing the yellowish red discal spot already mentioned in the other species, and in the anal markings of the hindwing above being larger. — Both forms, eximia and fixseni fly together in Amurland, Corea, Central and West China, Mongolia and Manchuria.
