174 LEPIDOPTERA INDICA, 
receive the abdomen ; costal vein with a short curved inner spur; first subcostal 
veinlet arched, starting at two-thirds before end of the cell, the radial (the base of 
which is homologous to an upper discocellular) starting from below the second sub- 
costal at more than one-third before end of the cell; median veinlets straight, the 
upper median giving off a short incomplete tubular discocellular veinlet, which latter 
does not reach the radial but completely terminates at a short distance from it, and 
thus leaves the cell partially open; swhmedian vein long, much recurved, and on the 
upperside of the wing has a lengthened fold along its inner edge, and a narrow lateral 
glandular pouch at the middle of its length, the pouch being open on the upperside 
of the wing and enclosing an erectile tuft of long bristly hairs, the edge of the fold 
above being fringed with fine woolly hairs ; within the cell there are two small oval 
superposed glandular patches, and above the cell, between the subcostal and costal veins, 
is a third similar glandular patch, each patch being overlaid by a tuft of erectile hairs 
arising from their inner end. Body woolly; head woolly in front; eyes large, 
prominent, naked; palpi elongate, narrow, compressed, erect, extending above level 
of the vertex, densely clothed with appressed scalés beneath, laxly hairy above, 
terminal joint slender, pointed ; antenne long, slender, distinctly articulated, the 
club very slender and elongated. Forelegs of male slender, hairy, of female rather 
longer, more robust, tarsus spiny beneath.

Imaco.—Male. Upperside dark violescent-brown, palest at the margins. Cilia 
cinerescent-white. Forewing crossed by a subapical excurved broad decreasing 
violet-blue band, extending from the costa to below the lower median veinlet. Hind- 
wing with a broad violet-blue posterior patch extending broadly from the submedian 
vein and decreasing upward along the outer border to near the apex ; within the cell 
is a small oval glandular patch overlaid by a tuft of erectile blackish hairs arising 
from its inner end; above the cell is a smaller similar glandular patch, which is over- 
laid by a tuft of ochreous hairs, and along the inner edge of the base of the submedian 
vein is a lengthened glandular pouch, which is fringed by long dark-brown hairs and 
a terminal tuft of erectile ochreous hairs. Underside purpurescent-brown ; crossed 
by a narrow brown discal fascia with sharply-defined outer edge, four short basal 
fasciee, and a very indistinctly defined submarginal sinuous line, the basal interspaces, 
the apical area beyond the cell, and the posterior area of the hindwing, being washed 
with glossy pale purplish-grey. On the hindwing are two small brownish-ochreous 
ocelli, the upper one situated between the subcostals, the lower between the middle and
