| Wingspan : | 47-50 mm | ||||||||||
| Range : | virgo | - Ilu-Mulia, Central Mtns, Irian Jaya |
| Notes : |
| This species is very similar to Delias tessei,
but D.virgo can be identified by the very pale buff shading on
the hindwing verso, and that the black postmedian band on the same wing
is replaced halfway along by red, and is occasionally broken. Yagishita puts this species as a subspecies of D.tessei (D.t.mastrigti Yagishita,1993). |
