Wingspan : 68 mm
Range      :  hippodamia - Aru Islands
Notes       :
A species, only found on Aru Island in the Arafura Sea, where it appears to be the rarest of the three species found on that island.

It is very similar to Delias biaka, from Biak Island, on the other side of that great land mass, New Guinea.

Found in very few collections, although, now Aru is being visited more frequently, specimens are becoming available more often.
