posterior wings are six in number, the lifth spot being large and the others of 

 an ahuost uniform size. The rings rouml tlie upper five spots are contiguous ; 

 the lowest is separate. 



The female resembles the male, but is paler on tlie ui)perside and rather 

 darker on the underside.

Nearest to M. Mchadeva, Boisd., Init hri^'hter fulvous on the upperside, with broader brown 

 margins on the undei'side. The ground-colour of the wings is paler, and devoid of any violaceous 

 tint. In the row of spots on the posterior wings the third spot is round and not out of line, 

 instead of being nan-owed and elongate inwardly, as in M. Mehadeva, and in that species there is 

 an additional sjiot at the anal angle. It is also near M. Mesnalina, Staudinger; but on the upper- 

 side the dark brown marginal border of the anterior wings does not extend inwardly below the 

 discal spot, and the underside is not at all violaceous, as in that species.

Male. Upperside. Near to M. Falriuiia, but duller rufous-ln-own and 

 smaller. On the anterior wings the dark apical area extends inwardly nearer 

 the end of the cell, and the l)lack discal spot is more surrounded by the dark 

 colour. On the posterior wings there is only one spot on the disc which lies 

 between the two lowest median nervules, and the zone round it is scarcely 



visible. 



On the UNDERSIDE the ground-colour is pinkish-grey on both wings. The 

 third spot in the discal row on the anterior wings is obsolete, and the row of 

 spots on the posterior wings is somewhat curved. 



Female. Much darker and more rufous than M. Fulciana, and the area in 

 which the discal spots are placed is almost the same colour as the basal part of 

 the wings, but across both wdngs there is a faint indication of a dark streak. 

 There is no zone round the discal spot on the anterior wings, and the zone 

 round the spot on the posterior wings is darker.
