Externally, males of  B. gratissima versicolorsubsp. n. ( Figs 13, 14) differ clearly from those of the nominate subspecies ( Figs 10, 11) by the larger red spots of forewing, paler blackish strips and spots, presence of red strips on veins in the terminal area of forewing, and darker pink hindwings, whereas in  B. gratissima gratissimathe red spots are narrower,  blackish pattern elements are darker, and strips on veins in the terminal area are dark yellow or slightly pinkish and not red, and the hindwings are yellow with slight pinkish suffusion in slide AV  1844m Volynkin34 –  B. kulingensis, holotype, China, Jiangxi, Jiujiang, slide  Figs 33–34.  Barsinespp., male genitalia: 33 –  B. gilveola, holotype, China, Yunnan, AV 1842mVolynkin. the subterminal and terminal areas. Females ( Figs 15, 16) are similar to those of the nominate subspecies ( Fig. 12), but apart from the yellow one ( Fig. 15), the form with presence of pale red spots on forewings is common ( Fig. 16). Both color forms of females are found within same populations in North Thailand. By the wing coloration,  B. gratissima versicolorsubsp. n. is very similar to Chinese  Barsine defecta rubella subsp. n.( Figs 8, 9) and differs by the more diffuse blackish elements of the forewing pattern. The male genitalia of  B. gratissima versicolorsubsp. n. ( Fig. 30) are very similar to those of the nominate subspecies ( Fig. 29) and differ only by the slightly thicker lobes of the distal saccular process. The female genitalia ( Fig. 38) have no significant differences from those of  B. gratissima gratissima( Fig. 37).   DISTRIBUTION. North Thailand(provinces Mae Hong Son, Chiang Mai, Nanand Lampang), North Laos( Luang Prabang province). The subspecies was reported for Thailandby Černý & Pinratana (2009) as  B. defecta.
