  Orange-tawny, 
  costa 
  speckled 
  with 
  bhickish, 
  hind 
  margins 
  

   brown 
  ; 
  in 
  the 
  male, 
  the 
  border 
  is 
  irregular 
  on 
  the 
  posterior 
  wings, 
  and 
  in 
  the 
  

   female 
  it 
  is 
  reduced 
  to 
  a 
  broken 
  line, 
  or 
  dots, 
  not 
  only 
  on 
  the 
  posterior 
  wings, 
  

   but 
  even 
  towards 
  the 
  hinder 
  angle 
  of 
  the 
  anterior 
  wings. 
  The 
  wings 
  are 
  spotted 
  

   with 
  black, 
  but 
  not 
  very 
  regularly 
  even 
  on 
  opposite 
  sides 
  of 
  the 
  same 
  specimen. 
  

   In 
  the 
  cell 
  of 
  the 
  anterior 
  wings 
  there 
  are 
  several 
  small 
  spots 
  near 
  the 
  base, 
  an 
  

   irregular 
  spot 
  in 
  the 
  middle, 
  another 
  at 
  the 
  extremity, 
  and 
  two 
  below 
  ; 
  and 
  in

   dark 
  apex 
  of 
  the 
  anterior 
  wings 
  ; 
  in 
  the 
  male 
  these 
  spots 
  are 
  smaller, 
  and 
  

   several 
  are 
  obsolete, 
  so 
  as 
  to 
  break 
  the 
  series. 
  In 
  the 
  posterior 
  wings 
  there 
  is 
  a 
  

   black 
  spot 
  at 
  the 
  end 
  of 
  the 
  cell, 
  a 
  spot 
  on 
  the
