Male. IJpPKRSiDE differs from the typical form in the more extended 

 area of the fuhginous-browii colom-iug ou both \\-ings. On the anterior wings 

 this coloiu-ing perYades nearly the whole of the cell, and the area below the 

 cell and the lowest median nerYule almost to the outer angle. The posterior 

 wings are nearly altogether fuliginous-brown, the only paler space being the 

 area round the extremity of the cell, the discoidal nerYure and the upper parts 

 of the median nerYules being likewise paler. 



On the uNDF.RsiDE, the lower as well as the upper part of the fulYous zone, 

 which surrounds the ocellus on the anterior wings, comprises a white spot, and 

 on the posterior wings the pale area is more extended, and approaches more 

 nearly to the typical form.

Male. TJpPKRsiDE differs from the typical form, and also from the fore- 

 going form, in the following respects : On the anterior wings the white area 

 is restricted to the space between the lowest subcostal nerYule and the upper- 

 most median nerYule, not extending to the outer angle ; the subapioal ocellus 

 with the white spot aboYe it is obsolete, but the ocellus on the underside can be 

 seen faintly through the wings. On the posterior wings the white area is 

 confined to the lower part of the cell and the space around it as far as the 

 ocellus, being more restricted than in the typical form, and more extended and 

 defined than in Yar. Iiiftiinata. The ocellus towards the anal anc;le is brighter
