  Exp. 
  nearly 
  1-| 
  inches. 
  

  

  Male. 
  Upperside 
  very 
  similar 
  to 
  the 
  last 
  species, 
  but 
  of 
  a 
  darker 
  fulvous, 
  

   and 
  the 
  dark 
  borders 
  are 
  very 
  much 
  broader, 
  and 
  the 
  black 
  spots 
  larger 
  and 
  

   more 
  numerous, 
  especially 
  towards 
  the 
  base. 
  On 
  the 
  anterior 
  wings 
  the 
  four 
  

   large 
  black 
  spots 
  which 
  nearly 
  fill 
  up 
  the 
  cell 
  are 
  confluent 
  with 
  the 
  dark 
  costa 
  

   above 
  ; 
  and 
  on 
  the 
  posterior 
  wings 
  the 
  submarginal 
  row 
  of 
  spots 
  is 
  further 
  

   from 
  the 
  hind 
  margin, 
  and 
  the 
  second 
  spot 
  from 
  the 
  costa 
  is 
  detached 
  from 
  the 
  

   border. 
  

  

  Underside 
  also 
  very 
  similar 
  to 
  T. 
  Nero, 
  but 
  the 
  spots 
  on 
  the 
  basal 
  half 
  

   of 
  the 
  wings, 
  especially 
  in 
  and 
  below 
  the 
  cell 
  of 
  the 
  anterior 
  wings, 
  are 
  much 
  

   larger. 
  

  

  The 
  wings 
  are 
  rather 
  shorter 
  and 
  more 
  rounded 
  than 
  in 
  T. 
  Nero, 
  the 
  

   antennae 
  are 
  black, 
  ringed 
  with 
  white, 
  with 
  the 
  whole 
  club 
  rufous 
  beneath, 
  and 
  

   the 
  legs 
  are 
  uniform 
  rufo-testaceous, 
  and 
  absolutely 
  devoid 
  of 
  black 
  markings.
