# Aldania raddei

Aldania raddei is a butterfly found in the East Palearctic (Amur, Ussuri) that belongs to the browns family.

## Description from Seitz

raddei Brem. (55d) stands entirely apart in facies; a remarkable species, which must be placed in the present genus [Neptis] as it agrees with the same in its morphological characters. Moore has erected for its reception a special genus, Aldania. Ground-colour white, dusted with grey-brown at the margins, the base and along the veins, the veins themselves blackish, a row of dark lunules along the margin, being especially distinct on the underside. — Amurland: Bureja Mts., Ussuri.

## Biology

The larva feeds on Ulmus propinqua.

## Etymology

The name honours Gustav Radde.
