AMATHUSIIN A. 218 
exterior margin pale ochreous-brown; crossed by the slightly-apparent excurved 
subbasal and the oblique discal brownish line of the underside. Hindwing crossed 
by the slightly-apparent subbasal and discal brown line of the underside, followed 
by a more distinct outer discal sinuous brown line, and then by a slightly-defined 
less sinuous upper submarginal line. Underside uniformly paler ochreous-yellow, 
the veins brownish; crossed by an ochreous-brown subbasal line, which is incurved 
on the forewing and excurved on the hindwing, a narrow oblique discal fascia and a 
slender sinuous submarginal line; between the two latter is a series of small ocelli, 
which decrease in size upwards, those on the forewing varying from one to five, 
and those on the hindwing from five to six, the one situated between the lower 
medians the largest, and the upper ones, generally, more or less imperfect; these 
ocelli, where perfect, have a pure white centre, ringed with black, a bright ochreous 
ring, and then an outer black ring. Body, palpi, and legs beneath ochreous-yellow ; 
antenne brown. 
Female (type). Upperside pale ochreous-brown. Forewing crossed by a 
faintly-defined broad excurved band of ochreous-yellow, which commences from 
the costa, where it is broadest and brightest yellow, and ends indistinctly towards 
the posterior angle, where it merges into the ground-colour; also crossed by the 
very faintly-defined subbasal and discal line of the underside. Hindwing crossed by 
the very faintly-defined subbasal and discal line of the underside, followed by an 
ochreous-brown outer discal sinuous line, and then by a submarginal line, the apical 
area being also slightly paler ochreous. Underside dull pale cinerescent ochreous- 
brown; crossed by slightly broader lines, as in the male, and more sharply-defined 
submarginal ocelli. Another female (from the Khasia Hills) is smaller than the 
type above described, and on the upperside is duller coloured, with the subapical 
pale band less-defined, but the transverse oblique discal line broad and distinctly 
defined ; on the underside the basal area is uniformly darker, the ocelli being of the 
same size, and with an additional small ocellus at the anal angle. 
Expanse, ¢ 2,% to 8, ? 3 to 3, inches. 
Hasirat.—Sikkim ; Bhotan; Naga, Khasia, and Garrow Hills. 
Distripution.—The type specimen (female) has a printed label “ Darjeling ” 
attached to it, and was obtained by the late Mr. W. 8S. Atkinson, as is indicated in 
his MS. Notes in our possession. A male, taken in Bhotan, August, 1888, by 
Mr. Otto Moller’s native collectors, is now in Mr. Walter Rothschild’s collection, as 
is also a male, labelled “Garo Hills, December, 1888,” taken by the Rev. W. 
Hamilton. Colonel C. Swinhoe has specimens of both sexes from the Khasia Hills, 
also taken by Mr. Hamilton’s native collectors. Specimens from the Khasias are 
also in the collection of Mr. Philip Crowley. Mr. 8. EH. Peal obtained a single male 
in the Naga Hills.
