  Figs.

  Dark 
  brown, 
  fore 
  wings 
  with 
  an 
  irregular 
  fulvous 
  blotch 
  running 
  from 
  near 
  

   the 
  base 
  to 
  nearly 
  the 
  hind 
  margin. 
  It 
  runs 
  below 
  the 
  cell, 
  before 
  the 
  end 
  of 
  

   which 
  is 
  a 
  small 
  red 
  horseshoe-shaped 
  spot, 
  and 
  projects 
  towards 
  the 
  costa 
  

   rather 
  beyond 
  the 
  cell 
  at 
  the 
  point 
  where 
  it 
  attains 
  its 
  greatest 
  breadth 
  ; 
  on 
  the 
  

   hind 
  wings 
  there 
  is 
  a 
  longer 
  and 
  narrower 
  red 
  stripe, 
  covering 
  part 
  of 
  the 
  cell. 
  

  

  Underside, 
  pale 
  brown, 
  with 
  a 
  double 
  row 
  of 
  indistinct 
  buff 
  submarginal 
  

   sagittate 
  markings 
  ; 
  on 
  the 
  fore 
  wings 
  the 
  fulvous 
  blotch 
  is 
  paler, 
  and 
  more 
  

   sharply 
  defined. 
  It 
  does 
  not 
  extend 
  so 
  far 
  towards 
  the 
  base 
  as 
  above, 
  but 
  the 
  

   stripe 
  towards 
  the 
  costa, 
  which 
  is 
  merely 
  indicated 
  above, 
  is 
  carried 
  up 
  to 
  the 
  

   costa, 
  and 
  is 
  continued 
  towards 
  the 
  base 
  by 
  three 
  pale 
  spots 
  just 
  below 
  the 
  

   costa. 
  Fore 
  wings 
  with 
  no 
  spot 
  in 
  the 
  cell 
  ; 
  hind 
  wings 
  with 
  four 
  red 
  spots, 
  

   two 
  small 
  ones 
  towards 
  the 
  base, 
  the 
  uppermost 
  in 
  the 
  cell, 
  and 
  two 
  larger 
  ones 
  

   beyond, 
  one 
  at 
  the 
  end 
  of 
  the 
  cell, 
  and 
  traversed 
  by 
  the 
  black 
  discocellular 
  

   nervule, 
  and 
  the 
  other 
  below, 
  on 
  the 
  submedian 
  nervure, 
  horseshoe-shaped, 
  and 
  

   ending 
  a 
  black 
  spot 
  ; 
  club 
  of 
  antennas 
  long, 
  tipped 
  with 
  red.
