obscuiv series of narrow, elongate suhniarginiil spots, followed by a marginal series of smaller, somewhat 

 romided, and equally obscure spots. Wings beneath pale olivaceous-brown, somewhat darker towards base. 

 Anterior wings with the following bluish white spots :— one above and one beneath second subcostal nervule, 

 and another beneath the origin of third subcostal nervule (these last two spots are present in the specimen 

 figured, but, judging from my other examples, are more frecpiently absent) ; a spot in cell before lower 

 disco-cellular nervule; a similar one between tirst and second median mrviiles, and a larger and more 

 elongate spot between second and third median nervules ; near posterior angle are sometinu^s a few very 

 small and indistinct white marginal spots. Posterior wings with the obscure nuirginal and submarginal 

 spots distinct and white beneath, and with the following pale bluish discal spots :— one in and near end of 

 cell, and live (in some specimens six) surrounding apical portion of cell and situated between the nervules. 

 Head, thorax, and abdomen above blackish ; head and anterior porticm of thorax spotted with white : body 

 beneath and legs blackish; palpi, sternum, and extreme bases of wings spotted with white; abdomen 

 beneath spotted and subannulated with bluish white. 



Male with an elongated pseudo scent-gland or braml on anterior wings, between third median nervule 

 and submedian nervure. 



Female. "Wings above paler than in male, olivaceous-brown, and unicolorous ; posterior wings with 

 the submarginal and marginal series of spots distinct and white above. Wings beneath pale olivaceous- 

 brown : anterior wings spotted as in male, but with an additional submarginal series of smaller spots. 

 Posterior wings spotted and marked as in male sex, but with the marginal and submarginal series of spots 

 somewhat larger and extending to apex. 



Exp. wings, 3 80 to 85 millim. ; ? !•(» niillim.

The males are somewhat iiicoustaiit in size, and have frequeutly the marginal and 

 submarginal spots on the upper surface of the lower wings almost obsolete, and sometimes 

 nearly as distinct as m the female.

Male. Anterior wings above dark i)itehy brown, with very slight and obscure purplish reflections. 

 The pseudo scent-gland, situated between third median nervule and submedian nervure, large, silky, and 

 paler in hue. Posterior wings much paler and olivaceous-brown, with a marginal and submarginal series 

 of whitish spots, the marginal ones small and rounded, the submarginal series becoming much larger and 

 elongate from tirst median nervule to anal angle, where they are also paler in hue. Underside of anterior 

 wings much paler than above, with the following violaceous spots :— one between tirst and second subcostal 

 nervules ; one in cell a little before lower disco-cellular nervule ; two beyond end of cell, one on each side of 

 first median nervule, and a larger, more elongate, and whitish spot between second and third median 

 nervules. There are also a few white dots near posterior angle, and in some specimens, as the one here 

 figured, one near apex. Underside of posterior wings with the marginal and submarginal series of spots 

 much more distinct, paler, and slightly larger than above, and with the following small pale violaceous 

 spots on disk, one in and a little before end of cell, and six (in some specimens seven) surrounding apical 

 portion of cell, and placed between the nervules. Head and thorax above blackish ; abdomen fuscous.
