218 LEPIDOPTERA INDICA. 
ferruginous. Forewing with the irregular discal black line of the underside 
showing through by transparency; the apical area widely pale fulvous, this pale area 
extends from the submarginal hastate black markings to just within the discal line, 
it is very wide on the costa, but dies away to nothing before reaching the first 
median nervule ; a series of five submarginal hastate black markings, one in each 
interspace from the upper discoidal nervule to the submedian nervure, increasing 
progressively in size from the anterior to the posterior marking ; a large black patch 
at the apex ; a submarginal fulvous line, beyond which is a narrower anteciliary 
black line, both reaching from the inner angle to the lower discoidal nervule; the 
area enclosed by the coalescing of the hastate markings forms a series of six 
rounded spots, regularly increasing in size, the anterior spot the smallest, the 
posterior one the largest ; these spots are of a slightly darker shade than the pale 
fulyous apical area, but not so dark as the dark rich reddish-fulvous of the rest of 
the wing. Hindwing with the abdominal and outer margins rather paler than the 
rest of the wing; a submarginal series of seven black markings, of which the 
anterior one is a small lunule with its concave edge directed towards the base of the 
wing, the next five markings are hastate-shaped, increasing in size from the anterior 
one to the posterior one in the first median interspace, the seventh posterior marking 
somewhat quadrate in form, and occupying the whole width of the submedian inter- 
space ; a fine black anteciliary thread. 
“Underside. Both wings of areddish-fulvous of not quite so rich a shade as on 
the upperside. Forewing with a small irregular black marking towards the base of 
the cell; a highly irregular and zigzag black line crosses the middle of the cell and 
extends both to the costa and to the submedian nervure, the posterior portion of the 
line is broken and shifted outwardly below the median nervure; the upper, middle, 
and anterior half of the lower discocellular nervule defined by a black line; an 
irregular discal black line from the costa to the submedian nervure, just touching the 
lower end of the cell; beyond the line is a series of five somewhat cordate reddish 
ocelli, each ocellus centred with a whitish lunule, and bounded by a fine whitish, and 
then a fine black line, the four anterior ocelli equal-sized, the fifth posterior one in 
the first median interspace a little larger; beyond these ocelli is another irregular 
black line from the costa to the inner margin, this line is narrower and paler than 
the discal one ; the space between these two lines is anteriorly somewhat paler than 
the rest of the wing; a submarginal nebulous straight blackish band; a very fine 
anteciliary black line. Hindwing with an irregular subbasal and a discal black line, 
the latter posteriorly curving round and almost meeting the posterior end of the 
former, both terminating above the anal angle on the submedian nervure; a series 
of five ocelli on the disc similar to those in the forewing, the posterior one the largest 
and rather mis-shapen, the anterior one the next largest, the three in the middle
