abdomen moderately stout, smooth, orange-yellow, the lateral 

 tufts deeper in colour ; anal tuft small, pale ochreous. Fore 

 wings angulated and much crenulated behind ; costa nearly 

 straight, but suddenl}^ arched close to the apex, which is 

 pointed and slightly drooping ; hind margin hollowed below 

 it, then filled out to a large angular projection above the 

 middle, again hollowed more deeply below, and both hollows 

 arranged in smaller projections or crenulations ; dorsal margin 

 decidedly curved and abundantly edged with soft long cilia ; 

 colour pale ochreous, orange-yellow, or else whitish-ochreous, 

 shading towards the apex into rich fulvous or orange-red, 

 and in a less degree so towards the hind margin, the whole 

 surface more or less dotted, or spotted, with dull purple- 

 brown ; first line, when visible, forming a full curve from the 

 costa to the dorsal margin near the base ; second line 

 extremely oblique but curved rather more upwards beyond 

 the middle and then again outward, attaining the costa at a 

 short distance from the apex, both dull purple or purplish- 

 brown ; discal spot of the same colour, but cloudy and indis- 

 tinct, sometimes almost lost among the purplish dots ; cilia 

 dark purple-brown dotted with white. Hind wings broad 

 and ample, rounded at the apex and anal angle, crenulated 

 behind, and having a more distinct angulated projection in 

 the middle of the hind margin, those on each side gradually 

 diminishing in size ; colour pale ochreous or orange-vellow 

 agreeing with that of the fore wings ; obscurely dusted with 

 dull purjjle or purplish-brown, and having a faint similar 

 narrow transverse stripe before the middle ; cilia dark purple- 

 brown on each marginal projection, bright white on each 

 intermediate hollow. Female much stouter, and often rather 

 larger, but with simple antennas ; otherwise similar. 



Underside of the fore wings of the colour of the upper but 

 much less spotted ; discal spot rather triangular, purple- 

 brown ; beyond it is a partial transverse stripe of the same 

 colour from the costa ; remainder of the apical area fulvous 

 tinged with purple. Hind wings pale ochreous or orange-
