 Jupiter; ground-colour more or less tawny olive, forewing mustly more yellowish, 



much less silvery and mouse-colour than in Jupiter. Forewing: middle cell-bar :ii 



to 4 mm. wide, generally dilated at both ends, about as wide as the interspace between 

 it and snbajncal bar ; this latter fused with the discocellnlar bar, only separated 

 from it in middle by a narrow interspace, whicli is often represented by a tliin white 

 line; base of cell tawny olive, postmedian interspace of cell white with centre more 

 or less yellowish tawny olive ; two submediau bars M' — (SM'), close to cell, thinly 

 bordered white proximally, more or less completely fused with the resp. median 

 bars ; median bar W — M' more distal, often fiUinir nj) the angle W — M', bar R- — ]V 

 fused with discocellnlar one ; white median patch R' — M' at JI 2 to 3 mm. distant 

 from heavy discal liue ; white border of discal line, appearing posterinrly liluisli, as

well as snbmarginal spots variable in width, often so heavy that the interspaces have 



the shape of rather thin Innnles. Ilindwing : black lines from 1 to H mm. wide; 



white border of submediau line not broader than this line, often thinner ; median 

 line sometimes joining snbmedian one at costal margin ; white discal band triangular, 

 6 to 10 mm. broad at costal margin, strongly narrowing behind, barely 1 mm. wide 

 between R- and R', often stop])ing at R'', sometimes extending beyond M-, its inner 

 edge straight or incurved at (', outer edge concave, not well marked on account of 

 tawny olive scaling that separates the band from the black discal, strongly arched, 

 line; three posterior discal spots mostly somewhat deeper red than in jupifrr: spots 

 C — SC- and R- — W also reddish, the latter sometimes rather more ochraceous; spots 

 SC- — R- ochraceous, bordered white or white and black outwardly; sj)ots ( ' — St'- with 

 heavy black border, anteriorly little wider than posteriorly; black snbmarginal spots 

 transverse, nearly as large as the admarginal ochraceous ones ; abdominal median 

 bar more oblique than in Jupiter, usually widened njion SM-, sometimes connected
