Comparing 6 of the females from the iced chrysalides, being those in which a change had more or less occurred, with the 6 females not iced:
1. All the former had the colours more intense, the black deeper, the light, green.
2. In 5 of the former the green lunules on hind wings were decidedly larger; 3 of the 6 had 4 distinct lunules, 1 had 3, 1 had 3, and a 4th obsolescent. Of the 6 females not iced none had 4, 2 had 2, and a 3rd, the lowest of the row, obsolescent; 3 had 3, the lowest being very small; one had 3, and a 4th, at outer angle, obsolescent.
3. In all the former the subapical spot on fore wing and the stripe on same wing which crosses the cell inside the common black band, were distinct and green; in all the latter these marks were either obscure or obsolescent.
4. In 4 of the former there was a large double connected red spot, and in one of the 4 it was edged with white on its upper side; 2 had 1 large and 1 small red spot. Of the latter 5 had 1 spot only, and the 6th had 1 spot and a red dot.
5. The former had all the black portions of the wing of deeper colour but less diffused, the bands being narrower; on the other hand, the green bands were wider as well as deeper coloured. Measuring the width of the outermost common green band along the middle of the upper medium interspace on fore wing in tenths of a millimetre, it was found to be as follows:
| On the iced pupæ | 81, 66, 76, 76, 66, 66. |
| On the not iced | 56, 56, 51, 51, 46, 51. |
Measuring the common black discal band across the middle of the lower medium interspace on fore wing:
| On the iced pupæ | 51, 66, 51, 51, 56, 61. |
| On the not iced | 76, 71, 66, 63, 71, 76. |
In other words the natural examples were more melanic than the others.
No difference was found in the length of the tails or in the length and breadth of wings. In other words, the cold had not altered the shape of the wings.
Comparing 1 male iced with 6 males not iced:
1. The former had a large double connected red anal spot, edged with white scales at top. Of the 6 not iced, 3 had but 1 red spot, 2 had 1 large 1 small, 1 had 1 large and a red dot.
2. The former had 4 green lunules; of the latter 3 had 3, 3 had only 2.
3. The former had the subapical spot and stripe in the cells clear green; of the latter 1 had the same, 5 had these obscure or obsolescent.
4. The colours of the iced male were bright; of the others, 2 were the same, 4 had the black pale, the light sordid white or greenish-white.
