elongated S-shaped black mark that lies between it and the ocellus. The ex- 

 treme costa is olivaceous-green, with a large green spot at inuer third and mid- 

 dle, with smaller ones before, between and beyond. The lower part of wing is 

 mottled olivaceous-green and brown. There is a cluster of long whitish scales 

 on dorsum at base, above which is a spot of whitish and fuscous-brown raised 

 scales, before this tuft are three black dots in a triangle; before fold is another 

 round button of raised scales and a third tuft above fold on outer fourth. The 

 ocellic spot is grayish-white, with shining white side bars. From costa, beyond 

 white patch, is a whitish spot, which sends a leaden-metallic streak under apex. 

 Between this and apex is another white spot on costa on an ochreous-brown 

 ground. Cilia speckled black and gray at base, fuscous outwardly. 



Hindwing: smoky brown, male hair pencil black, cilia gray, with dark basal 

 line, underside paler.

 to inner fifth there are only scattered gray scales on dorsal margin, at inner fifth 

 it swells to middle of wing, at inner third it narrows obliquely along line of fold 

 to outer fourth where it swells again, but less than before and rounds off into 

 termen. The purple-lake ground color, in the indentation between the two gray 

 elevations, is darker than elsewhere. There are a few scattered scales of gray in 

 ground color above the second elevation. A fine, diminishing line of gray at ter-
