fore the margin, beneath marbled with ochraceous and brown ; the se- 

 condaries with a dark middle band ; fringe dark brown, interrupted in 

 the interspaces with grayish-white. 



Above. Primaries ochraceous-brown, the costal border marbled with 

 black and grayish-white, distinct next the base, forming a dark grayish 

 band towards the tip. continued more broadly around the outer to the 

 inner border as a dark brown band, the inner edge slightly crenulated. 

 the outer edge distinctly black; a very broad band clouded with black, 

 darkest at the borders, and somewhat tino'cd with ochraceous in the 

 middle, crosses the middle of the wing ; the nevvure closing the ceil is 

 distinctly and narrowly edged with black; the outer border of the band 

 starts from the dusky costal border beyond the cell at right angles to the 

 last branch of the median nervure. projecting outwards as a short tooth 

 upon this nervure. is there bent at right angles towards the base, and 

 immediately thereafter bends again and passes in broad crenatious to 

 the inner, and subparallel to the outer, b.order; the inner border of the 

 band crosses the cell ii*regularly between the origin of the first and se- 

 cond median nervules and nearer the latter ; below the cell, it passes 

 from the origin of the first median nervule parallel to the costal border. 

 but is lost before reaching the inner border. Between this band and the 

 base the ochraceous is considerably flecked with brownish atoms, less dis- 

 tinctly next the band; in the broad ochraceous band next the outer 

 border, occupying the space left between the two dark bands mentioned, 

 are situated in cells 2. o and 5. large, roundish, inclined to be pyriform. 

 blind, eye-like spots, that in cell 3 a little smaller and rounder. Si'- 

 cotu/arii's: basal portion to the extremity of the cell fuscous, hirgelv 

 tinged with dull ochraceous. except above the cell ; toward the base 

 very indistinctly marked with faint fuscous and ochraceous; the outer 

 limit of this fuscous basal portion is that of the outside of the middle 

 Itand beneath ; the outer border of the wing from the tip of the first 

 subcostal nervule to the anal angle has a narrow dusky band, narrower 

 than that of primaries, blackish on the inside where it is very slightly 

 crenulate, paler along the middle, the edge black again; the marbling 

 of the under surface shows indistinctly through upon the broad ochra- 

 ceous-brown band which occupies most of the outer half of the wing. 

 and in the interspace between the first and second median nervules is 

 a round, black, blind, e^^e-like spot, snuiller than any of those of the 

 primaries. 



Beneath. Frimaricn considerably paler than above; the middle baud 

 of the upper surface distinct only at the borders, the lower portion of 

 the outer border straight, the middle space beiuir of the "round color.
