 a little beyond the middle by an indistinct — more marked in the ? than in the $ — 

 slightly curved, slender, dusky stripe, at its extremities curved more strongly outward, 

 and crossing the middle median nervule at an interspace's distance from its base ; the 

 tip of the cell is sometimes indistinctly marked with fuscous ; the outer border has a 

 very narrow edging of blackish fuscous, followed almost immediately by another 

 similar line and again, at less than an interspace's distance from the outer border, by a 

 slightly broader, similarly colored, gently Avaving stripe; about midway between this 

 stripe and the extra-mesial stripe, or a little nearer tlie former (the held itself being 

 often, and especially in the $ and in faded specimens, sliglitly paler than the rest of 

 the wing) are two round, black ocelli, one in the lower subcostal, the other in the 

 lower median interspace, enclosing a pair of faint, bluish fuscous dots, one above the 

 other; the black spots ai'e rather narrowly but distinctly edged with pale yellowish, 

 reaching the sides of the interspace ; fringe uniform grayish fuscous. Hind vnnrjs 

 crossed near the middle by a slender, indistinct, nearly straight stripe of fuscous, 

 passing just beyond the tip of the cell; the outer border is uiarked just as in the fore 

 wings, the inner submarginal stripe perliaps a little less wavy; there is also a simi- 

 lar ocellus in the lower median, which, owing to the breadth of the intei-space, is fre- 

 quently a little transverse, and in tlie lower suI)costal interspace an obsolete one; 

 occasionally there is a smaller, obsolete one in the upper subcostal interspace; fringe 

 similar to, but generally a very little paler thau, that of the fore wings. 



Beneath rather pale gray -brown, very slightly tinged on the apical half with yellow- 

 ish, and toward the base almost imperceptibly with greenish ; the stripes of the upper 

 surface are repeated beneath, a very little more broadly, those near the border in dark 

 brownish fuscous, the mesial in dark yellowish brown. Fore loings with the ocelli of 

 the upper sui'face repeated beneath, the double pupils of steel colored scales, the black 

 of the same size as above, but the yellowish border twice as ])road, extending, espec- 

 ially in the upper one, beyond the nervules; in addition there is another transverse 

 stripe, similar and parallel to the mesial, but a little slenderer and fainter, situated 

 midway between that and the base, and extending from the subcostal to the sub- 

 median nervule; in the interspaces between those occupied by the ocelli, and in a 

 line with the latter, is a small, roundish spot of gleaming, light steel colored scales, 

 broken in the middle by the fold of the wing which passes midway between the ner- 

 vules ; fringe paler than above. Hind icings having a straight, transverse sti'ipe, similar 

 and parallel to the mesial stripe, and situated midway between the latter and the 

 base of the wing; a round or roundish black ocellus in both subcostal, the lower 

 median and the medio-submedian interspaces, the corresponding ones opposed to those 

 of the upper surface; that of the loAvev median interspace is largest, and usually 

 somewhat or considerably transverse ; that of the lower subcostal is next in size, while 

 the other two are smaller and nearly equal, that of the medio-submedian occupying 

 only the anterior half of the interspace, but never touching the one above it; while 

 the upper two always touch and sometimes have their yellow bordering more or less 

 blended; the ocelli are similar to those of the fore wings, excepting that the steel col- 

 ored scales form a single instead of a double pupil in the upper and lower spots ; in 

 the subcosto-median and upper median interspaces, on a line with the ocelli of the 

 other interspaces, is a pretty large spot of light steel colored scales somewhat scat- 

 tered toAvard the outside, and A-aried here and there by blackish scales; the spots 

 are broken in the middle as in the fore Avings ; fringe as in fore Avings. 



Abdomen above blackish broAvn, enlivened Avith pale broAvn hairs; beneath rather 

 pale grayish broAvn. Male appendages (33 : 6, 7) : upper organ arched a little longi- 

 tudinally ; hook a little arched at extreme base, beyond taking the direction of the 

 posterior half of the centrum, rather high at the base, tapering regularly almost to the 

 tip, more than four times as long as high and half as long again as the centrum ; the 

 inferior foliation extending from the middle of the basal half nearly to the tip, regu- 

 larly ovate, fusiform, tAvo and a half-times longer than broad, the tip minutely hooked 

 beneath; lateral arms very slender, tapei'ing very slightly, finely pointed, as long as
