  Underside. 
  Somewhat 
  resembles 
  the 
  male 
  of 
  A. 
  Alcf, 
  but 
  on 
  the 
  anterior 
  

   wings 
  the 
  third 
  and 
  fourth 
  spots 
  in 
  the 
  transverse 
  band 
  are 
  rather 
  more 
  out 
  of 
  

   line 
  and 
  less 
  elongate 
  outwardly 
  ; 
  the 
  first 
  spot 
  in 
  the 
  band, 
  on 
  the 
  costa, 
  is 
  

   abbreviated, 
  the 
  spot 
  in 
  the 
  cell 
  near 
  the 
  base 
  is 
  rounder 
  and 
  smaller. 
  

  

  On 
  the 
  posterior 
  wings 
  the 
  dark 
  band 
  of 
  spots 
  on 
  the 
  middle 
  upper 
  part 
  of 
  

   A. 
  Alee 
  is 
  represented 
  by 
  a 
  cluster 
  of 
  dark 
  spots 
  more 
  elongate 
  towards 
  the 
  

   apex 
  and 
  less 
  extended 
  into 
  the 
  middle, 
  and 
  the 
  dark 
  spot 
  crossing 
  the 
  end 
  

   of 
  the 
  cell 
  of 
  A. 
  Alee 
  is 
  represented 
  only 
  by 
  two 
  pale 
  brown 
  lines, 
  the 
  other 
  

   markings 
  are 
  also 
  less 
  distinct.

  Underside. 
  Both 
  wings 
  pinkish-brown. 
  Anterior 
  wings 
  with 
  two 
  round 
  

   spots 
  in 
  the 
  cell, 
  one 
  reniform 
  spot 
  at 
  the 
  end 
  of 
  the 
  cell 
  and 
  a 
  rather 
  

   curved 
  transverse 
  band 
  crossing 
  the 
  wings 
  from 
  the 
  costa, 
  at 
  about 
  one- 
  

   third 
  from 
  the 
  apex 
  to 
  the 
  submedian 
  nervure 
  ; 
  a 
  triangular 
  spot 
  below 
  the 
  

   cell 
  at 
  the 
  junction 
  of 
  the 
  middle 
  and 
  lowest 
  median 
  nervules 
  with 
  the 
  disco- 
  

   cellular 
  nervules 
  and 
  a 
  dark 
  space 
  below 
  the 
  median 
  nervure, 
  the 
  spots 
  and 
  

   bands 
  bordered 
  by 
  pinkish-white 
  lines 
  ; 
  an 
  indistinct 
  band 
  crosses 
  the 
  wings 
  a 
  

   little 
  before 
  the 
  apex 
  and 
  the 
  outer 
  margins 
  are 
  broadly 
  pinkish-browoi. 
  Posterior 
  

   wings 
  with 
  four 
  spots 
  near 
  the 
  base, 
  of 
  which 
  one 
  is 
  in 
  the 
  cell, 
  another 
  large 
  

   round 
  spot 
  in 
  the 
  middle, 
  and 
  a 
  reniform 
  spot 
  at 
  the 
  end 
  of 
  the 
  cell 
  followed 
  by 
  

   a 
  curving 
  band 
  of 
  spots 
  which 
  crosses 
  the 
  wings 
  from 
  the 
  costa 
  about 
  its 
  middle 
  

   to 
  the 
  inner 
  margin 
  ; 
  the 
  two 
  spots 
  nearest 
  the 
  costa 
  are 
  large, 
  the 
  space 
  

   between 
  them 
  and 
  a 
  spot 
  nearer 
  the 
  base 
  being 
  pale 
  pink, 
  the 
  rest 
  of 
  the 
  band 
  

   about 
  half 
  the 
  width 
  of 
  the 
  two 
  upper 
  spots 
  but 
  becoming 
  wider 
  towards 
  the 
  

   inner 
  margin 
  ; 
  two 
  spots 
  below 
  the 
  cell 
  — 
  all 
  the 
  spots 
  are 
  bordered 
  with 
  j^ale 
  

   pinkish 
  lines 
  and 
  the 
  ground 
  colour 
  is 
  darker 
  in 
  the 
  middle 
  and 
  on 
  the 
  outer 
  

   margin, 
  where 
  towards 
  the 
  anal 
  angle 
  is 
  a 
  series 
  of 
  four 
  black 
  spots 
  crowned 
  by 
  

   metallic 
  green 
  scales.
