"black, second without black line ; anterior leg black above, white beneath, tlie other 

 legs dirty white, femora black above, with dispersed, white, scales ; abdomen pale 

 ■ochraceous, whitish towards base, sides with ill-defined black and white scaling. 



Wings above : base tawny ferruginous, rest ferruginous orange, marked with 



black i)atches and bands. Forewing : all the bars very heavy ; cell-bars 3 and 4 



represented by patches which do not reach M, upper jiatch much heavier than the 

 other ; submedian bar M' — M- present, in front of median bars M- — SM- ; median 

 bars K' — M^ very large, 3^ mm. broad, somewhat halfmoon-shaped, bar R' — M' 

 more distal than the others, median bar R^ — R' fused with bar D, forming with it a 

 hammer-shaped patch, bars SC — R- forming a similar mark, bar R' — R' being 

 broader than the others touching the discal bar R-— R^; discal bars SC* — Represent, 

 halfmoon-shaped, joined along veins to black postdisco-marginal area, bars SC* — R' 

 very much broader than bars R' — R' ; postdisco-marginal black area lieavily dentate 

 at veins R'— M- ; marginal ferruginous orange dots of nearly equal width, about 1 or 

 li mm. wide, postdiscal spots SC* — R' of that colour isolated, rounded, sjiot R' — R^ 



small ; median series of bars extending generally beyond SM-. Hindwing : 



median bars C — R' piresent, the second 3 mm. from base of R\ the first 2 mm. more 

 distal ; black postdisco-submarginal area only 2J mm. from base of M', anteriorly 

 narrower, measuring 5i mm. between (J and SO', black colour somewhat produced 

 basad between R- and R^; a complete series of ferruginous orauge luuules, upper 

 ones heavier, nearly 2 mm. broad between veins, all slightly separated at veins, 

 black marginal line 1 wide, even in width. 



Underside ferruginous chestnut ; bars deep black, much heavier than in poUux. 



white borders also heavy, silvery white. Forewing : cell-bars 2 and 3 more or 



less circular, 4 also rounded off behind ; submedian and median bars M- — SM^ fused 

 to a large patch which extends to base, median bars SC* — M- placed as above, bar 

 R- — R^ more or less completely separated from bar D, but the white borders of these 

 bars always fused ; pinkish white discal patches R^ — SM- of almost the same width, 

 each more or less rectangular, patch M- — SM^ narrower than 2>ostdiscal ochraceous 

 patch M^— SM= ; discal black bars SC*— R^ present, bars R'— R^ thin, the last of 

 them close to median bar R' — R'^ ; postdiscal bars represented by black spots, spots 

 SC — R' small, smaller than the ochraceous spots at their proximal side, spot SC* — 

 SC^ a little larger, spot M' — SM- large, all with ochraceous spots resp. patches at 

 proximal side, and all bordered outwardly by bluish grey, heavy, semicircles ; 

 admarginal tawny ochraceous spots much larger than those of upperside, veins with 



black patches at ends, more or less covered with bluish grey scaling. Hindwing: 



black bars up to median series inclusive of their white borders much broader than the 

 ferruginous chestnut interspaces, which is especially obvious in cell ; median bar 

 C — SC'^ more distal than the median bars next to it, median bar R^ — R' 4 mm. 

 distant from bar R' — R-, with a ferruginous spot between itself and bar D, median 

 bar M' — M'-' long, oblique, pointing auad, median bars M' — SM' at right angles to 

 veins, continuous, joined to the black abdominal lines, bar M- — (SM') more proximal 

 than bar (SM') — SM- ; submedian bar M- — (SM') long, extending straight from 

 base of M^ to end of longitudinal line (SM'), the ferruginous chestnut interspace 

 between the bar and this line a long narrow triangle ; no discal bars except a 

 continuous, almost straight, transverse, very slightly oblique line from M- to 

 abdominal margin ; postdiscal inters(iaces beyond irregular, silvery white ; discal 

 baud ferruginous chestnut, this colour forming a band of about 3 mm. breadth, 

 curved distad before R', partitions R' — M- halfmoon-shaped, partition M- — SM-
