(Moore, 1857)[1]

Euthalia anosia, the grey baron, is a butterfly of the family Nymphalidae (Limenitidinae). It is found in the Indomalayan realm.[2] It is one of the most easily distinguishable species of Euthalia, on account of the ashy-grey colour of the upper surface which according to the locality is more or less suffused with greenish. Female always larger than the male, forewings with rounded or dentate transcellular spots of clear white. Under surface nearly as above, only somewhat paler, likewise ashy-grey, faintly clouded with brown, the hindwings occasionally with a highly faded greenish irroration. [3]
