blackish lines ; first from J costa slightly bent in disc to 

 ^ dorsum, and followed by a blackish subcostal dot : second 

 similar but more obscure from f costa, rather strongly 

 bent inwards in disc, and bent again to | dorsum : between 

 upper bend and costa is a short stiaight transverse mark ; 

 a third line shortly posterior and parallel to second, not 

 reaching dorsum ; space between second and third lines 

 irrorated with white from costa to mid-disc : a few white 

 scales on termen ; cilia dark-fuscous. Hindwings with 

 termen rounded ; bright orangs : basal hairs, a line along 

 dorsum, a discal spot, and a broad terminal band narrowed 

 in middle, blackish ; cilia dark-fuscous, towards tornus 

 paler with whitish apices. 



This mountain species may be distinguished from 

 H. ophideres by the blackish dorsum of hindwings, from 

 H. paracenfra by the absence of a white mark on dorsum 

 of forewings, and from both by the tufted palpi.
