Male. Wings above fuliginous-brown, with a narrow, obscure, paler fascia crossing both wings 

 beyond cells, but nearer the apex of cell of posterior than that of anterior wings. Wings beneath fuliginous- 

 brown, crossed by a narrow pale white fascia, commencing near costa lietween upper apical angle of cell 

 and apex of anterior wings where it is narrowest, and terminating a little before anal angle of posterior 

 wings. Anterior wings with two large sul)marginal oeellated s2iots, black with white centres, margined 

 respectively with ochraeeous and fuscous, with an extreme outer border of pearly grey, the first and smallest 

 of which is situate on the discoidal nervules, and the lower and largest on the second and third median 

 uervules. Posterior wings with three submarginal oeellated spots of the form and colour of those of anterior 

 wings, the first and smallest of which is placed between the subcostal nervules, contiguous to the second 

 and much larger spot, and both enclosed by one outer pearly grey margin (in some specimens each has a 

 separate pearly outer mai-gin) ; third and largest spot on second and third median nervules ; both wings 

 possessing two narrow pale waved marginal lines, those of the posterior wings much more distinct. Body 

 and legs concolorous with wings. 



Male with a tuft of long hairs, covering the base of a glandular pouch, situate between and near the 

 bases of third median nervule and submedian nervure, and with a tuft of long hairs near base of median 

 nervure of posterior wings. 



Exp. wings, a' 42 to 49 millim. ; ? (one spec.) 57 millim. 



Hab.— Continental India; Gangetic Plains (coll. Moore) ; Silliet (Brit. Mus.)— Ceylon ?* (coll. Dist.)— 

 Nicobar Islands. — Brit. Burma (coll. Moore). — Malay Peninsula; Penang; Province Wellesley (coll. Dist.) ;

 Godm. & Salv.)— Celebes (Snellen); Macassar; Flores; Timor (coll. Moore).— Gilolo (coll. Dist.). 



A male specimen is here figui'ed. As with other species of the gemis, considerable variation 

 ensues in the size of the oeellated spots on the under surface of the wings. 



B. Males possessing a pseudo scent-gland on posterior wings onlg. 

 b. Costal, iiiedian, and submedian nerviires dilated at base. 



c. Males with a single tuft of hairs at subcostal base of posterior wings.

'■■■ T have an undoubted specimen of this specie.s labelled "Ceylon," which is my reason for giving that habitat. 

 Mr. Moore, however, has not included it in his ' Lepidoptera of Ceylon,' but only an allied species. I have therefore felt 

 a little doubt as to whether I really possess a Ceylou specimen.
