it is also easily distinguishable by the absence of the series of submarginal ocelli, 
on a ferruginous band, which are generally present on both wings in most of the 
species of the latter genus.

narrowly ringed with ochreous, below which is an outer-discal chestnut-red patch. 
Hindwing with a lower outer-discal smaller chestnut-red patch, which is nearly or 
sometimes quite obsolete in some specimens. Underside cinerescent-brown. Fore- 
wing with the entire discal area, including the cell, chestnut-red, the subapical 
ocellus more prominent and paler ringed, and the brown apical border speckled with 
cinerescent scales. Hindwing sparsely speckled with distinctly-defined cinereous 
scales, these scales being more densely disposed across the disc and there form an 
ill-defined transverse fascia, beyond which is an outer discal recurved series of white 
dots. 
Female. Upperside. Forewing with the ocellus somewhat larger, and the 
discal red patch much broader. Hindwing as in the male. Underside duller brown, 
in some darker cinerescent-brown. forewing as in the male. Hindwing more

Disrrisution.—The type specimens were taken by Colonel A. M. Lang, who 
remarks that “this is a subalpine Kunawur insect, and is local. I saw very few, 
and at only two places, on the Hill-sides below the Werang and Runang Passes, at 
perhaps from 11,000 to 12,000 feet elevation, in July. It has a weak low flight 
amongst grass and flowers” (MS. Notes). ‘Mr. A. Graham Young took it in the 
Kulu Valley in May. Mr. L. de Nicéville obtained numerous males and one female at 
Ulwas in May, and Mr. R. Ellis and Dr. Hutchinson took numerous specimens of 
both sexes in Pangi, in June and July, at altitudes of 9000 feet and upwards” 
(Butt. Ind. 241). Dr. G. Watt obtained it in the Pine forests of the Ravi Basin, 
up to 12,000 feet. Specimens are in Mr. J. H. Leech’s Collection, taken by Mr. 
H. McArthur in the Kutie Pass, 7000 feet, N. of Dalhousie, in September, 1889, 
and from Kokser, in Lahul in July, 1888, and from the Kutkie Pass, 85,000 feet, in
