Upper surface brown, densely powdered with shining green atoms, 

 within, a continuous bluish-green transverse band, broad, and extending 

 from the middle of the costal margin of the anterior wings to the anal 

 margin of the posterior wings ; on the primaries, it gradually widens 

 towards the inner margin; on the secondaries, it is widest in the middle, 

 tapering towards the extremities; beyond this band, on the fore wings, 

 the green atoms become fewer, and there are none on the hind wings save 

 a submarginal row of five crescents, composed of very bright green atoms, 

 the first of these in some specimens is partly whitish ; a large white 

 lune at the outer angle ; anal spot ferruginous, the upper part of the 

 iris separated from a black arc by some green atoms. Indentations 

 white ; that on the anal margin, fulvous. Expanse 4.13 inches ; tail 

 brown, spatulate. 



Below, brown, irrorated with greenish-white dots, outer half of fore 

 wings ash-gray; a marginal cinereous band on the hind wings, contain- 

 ing a large white lunule, haviug a black spot immediately posterior to it; 

 five oblong reddish brown spots, each compressed between two deep black 

 lines, the upper of which lines is irrorated by an arc of blue atoms? 

 more or less distinct; and an anal ocellus, the pupil of which is black, 

 the upper part of the iris reddish, surmounted by some blue atoms and 

 a black spot, and the lower part, fulvous; the first sub-marginal oblong 

 spot has sometimes a white mark above it.
