Male. Uppeeside dark olive-brown, bind margin scalloped, and narrowly 

 blackish. Anterior wings with five thick black lines across the cell, the first and 

 last waved, the middle ones nearly straight ; beyond these a row of rather 

 indistinct black spots between the nervures runs from the subcostal nervure to 

 the submedian nervure ; and there is a more distinct submarginal row of black 

 spots between the two ner\Tii'es just mentioned. Posterior wings rather pointed ; 

 two black lines at the end of the cell ; two series of five short streaks between 

 the branches of the subcostal and median nervures, diverging above, where the 

 three uppermost parallel streaks are separated by red spots, the lowest of which 

 is very minute ; there is also a red spot on the costa at two-thirds of its length. 

 A submarginal row of seven black spots, of which the first three, and the anal 

 spot, which is more elongated than the others, adjoin red spots on the outside. 



Underside of a more rufous-brown ; incisions slightly marked with white. 

 Anterior wings : costa paler, inner margin inclining to purplish ; five lines in the

 under the fork of the lowest median nervule is a small black spot ; beyond the 

 cell runs a series of irregular blackish markings ; two irregular spots, an imper- 

 fect circle, and a streak, beyond the upper part of which is a short dash, and the 

 lower part of which forms an acute angle towards the base. Apex with a large 

 oval pale greenish blotch, below which runs a blackish submarginal band, partly 

 divided by the nervures. Posterior wings with the inner margin shading into 

 olive, and a large glaucous-gi'een patch on the lower half of the wings. Costa 

 bordered with red, a black spot below on the precostal nervure, and with three
