of the White Munntains. 627 



sciired by the duskiness of the base of the wing; a short 

 patch, starting from the divarication of the median, crosses 

 half way to the submedian, turns abruptly inwards a short 

 distance towards the base, terminating in a point ; the 

 outer margin of the wing is rather broadly bordered with 

 black, inclosing, between it and a row of triangular black 

 spots, a series of fulvous transverse streaks, sometimes 

 continuous, usually largest towards the inner angle ; mid- 

 way between the row of triangular spots and the mesial 

 band is a row of rather large black spots, slightly curv- 

 ing, usually larger toward the inner angle, the lowermost 

 thrown a little outside of the curve ; on the costal border, 

 midway between this row and the mesial band, a trian- 

 gular dusky patch, extendijig just over the penultimate 

 branch of the subcostal nervure. 



Secondaries. The markings are entirely as in A. Boisdv- 

 valii Somm., except that the duskiness of the base extends 

 farther, frequently obscuring the markings within the mesial 

 band, and the roundish spots are, in general, larger; fringe 

 of wings pale, at base fulvous, interrupted with black. 



Beneath : Primaries, fulvous, with the markings of the 

 basal portion of the upper surface repeated, but the mesial 

 band more interrupted ; the row of roundish spots is only 

 partially repeated, generally only in the middle of the wing, 

 that between the ultimate branches of the subcostal ner- 

 vure being bordered with ochraceous ; the apical portion 

 of the tip of the wing is cinnamon-red, extending from a 

 little outside the mesial band to the termination of the 

 lowest median nervule ; the nervules within this patch are 

 ochraceous from the border to a point corresponding to 

 the triangular spots of the upper surface, which are gen- 

 erally only indicated as dusky arrow-head spots ; there is 

 a short ochraceous streak extending from the tip inwards 

 and downwards, and another, smaller and less distinct, 

 parallel to it, within, on costal border.
