Melanitis zitenius
The Great Evening Brown (''Melanitis zitenius'') is a species of nymphalid butterfly found in Asia. The species is crepuscular.
==Description==
Wet-season form. Male and female: Fore wing : costa strongly arched, apex acute; termen immediately below apex in male angulate, in female falcate. Upperside resembles ''M. ismene'', but ground-colour on the whole somewhat warmer brown, a very broad patch of ochraceous yellow, above and beyond the subapical black spots, larger in the female than in the male. Underside closely irrorated with dark brown striae ; the ocelli subequal, very much smaller and less clearly defined than in ''M. ismene''.
Dry-season form. Costa of fore wing less strongly arched; apex in both sexes very falcate. From the wet-season form it differs in the greater amount of ochraceous yellow on the apex of fore wing. This forms a very broad band passing from costa above and beyond the subapical blapk spots, spreading below and encircling them except for a narrow band which joins the spots to a large black mark beyond apex of cell. Hind wing with two or three white subterminal spots posteriorly. Underside as in ''M. ismene'' but not quite so variable, the ocelli often entirely obsolete.〔Bingham, C. T. (1905). ''Fauna of British India. Butterflies. Volume 1.''〕
Food plants include ''Bambusa arundinacea''.〔Kunte, K. (2006). Additions to known larval host plants of Indian butterflies. ''J. Bombay Nat. Hist. Soc.'' 103(1):119-120.〕
