358 ^^^ BUTTERFLIES OF THE 



male, there is a white hyaline spot resting on the outei 

 end of the two cellular teeth formed by this band, some- 

 times obsolete. The submarginal band consists of in- 

 terspaceal, sagittate, fuscous spots, which are somewhat 

 squarely truncated anteriorly and have umber-colored 

 scales centrally. Its course is direct from the submedian 

 vein to the subcostal venule, whence it is broadly reflected 

 anteriorly to the costal margin, embracing in this portion 

 four interspaceal minute white hyaline spots, of which 

 the first, third, and fourth are nearly in line, the second 

 and largest lying behind. Between the median venules 

 are two hyaline spots, of which the inner one is some- 

 times obsolete in the male or wholly absent. Between 

 these two bands the ground color is umber-brown, with 

 a few bluish-gray scales towards the submarginal band, 

 and a large number between the subcostal venules. The 

 sagittate spots of the submarginal band are bordered 

 externally with gray, followed by a series of round um- 

 ber spots having a few gray scales resting on obscure 

 yellowish spots between them and the brown marginal 

 line. Fringes umber, with a very few basal gray scales. 



Hind wings of a more uniform brown than the fore 

 wings, and more shaded with red, with two rows of ob- 

 scure yellowish-brown marginal spots ; the discal spots 

 at the end of the cell barely seen. 



Under side reddish brown, the fore wings conspicu- 

 ously so at the apex. The four subapical hyaline spots 

 are constant, and there is usually a small white spot in 

 the cell. The median spots are larger than the subapical, 

 and are subquadrangular in form. Hind wings without 

 discal spots. Both wings with two rows of spots along 

 the outer margin.
