Abstract: Both sexes of Spinadasis abnormis Moore are redescribed. Examination of male gentitalia establishes this a good species. The egg, and the egg larvae with its ant relatioship, are described for the first time. Field notes are given on the biology of this butterfly. Much further research, especially of the early stages, ought to be undertaken.
