Original description
Var. KINABALA, nov.
Differs from the type by being generally larger and with the spots on the underside larger and darker and with an additional spot on the costa of the fore wing.Kina Balu (Waterstr.); Labuan (Low).
This may prove to be a distinct species, but for the present I do not think it advisable to treat it as such.
