short streak towards the apex of the fore-wing, and the abdominal half 
of the hind-wing rich blue ; nervures, and a sub-marginal row of short 
streaks on the hind border of hind-wing black. Beneath : brownish- 
tawny with a blackish line (as in Th. Ltjtcea, Hbn. Z. 901-2), extending 
from the costa (near the apex) of the fore-wing to the middle of the 
abdominal edge of the hind-wing : fore-wing with two white spots in 
the cell ; hind-wing with two black spots encircled with white near the 
anal angle.

? . Exp. 2" 3'". Wings above dark brown ; fore- wing crossed 
in the middle by a broad buff-coloured belt very much bent towards the 
outer margin ; basal part of the wing with five pale buff, oblong rings, 
outer border with a sub-marginal line, and near the hind angle with a 
broader flexuous stripe, also pale buff. Hind-wing pale buff with the 
base, two sub-marginal rows of quadrate spots (the inner one inter- 
rupted near the middle), and outer margin dark brown. Beneath : 
the same in colour, but base of fore-wing buff, and outer row of black

above ruddy -brown, crossed by a somewhat narrow reddish-tawny belt 
extending from the fore-wing upper radial nervure to the hind-wing 
abdominal margin. Eore-wing cell crossed by six pale lines, in pairs, 
and the space between the median and sub-median nervures also crossed 
by four similar lines ; outer margin of both wings with a line of tawny-

The c? of this species has the robust form of thorax and head of 
the genus Dircenna, and in the neuration of the hind-wing closely 
resembles D. Epidero and D, Lenea ; the palpi, however, are not more 
hairy than in the true Ithomics, and I doubt if the genus Dircenna can be 
maintained.
