 Satyrus Sect. H., p. GocV. 



Body small, hairy ; wings large, not subdiaphanous, uniformly coloured above, and more or less ocellated and strigose, 



especially beneath. 

 Head small, very slightly hairy. 



Eyes moderate, naked, or scarcely hirsute. 



Antennce very short, composed of short joints, annulated with white ; terminated by a moderately robust and 

 elongated club, composed of shorter articulations. 



Labial Palpi nearly resembUng those of Euptychia, but longer, and more densely clothed in front with long 

 straight bristly hairs ; terminal joint elongate, and very slender. 

 Thorax oval, very finely hairy. 



Fore Wings large, entire, fringed with fine hairs. Costal margin slightly arched ; apical angle well rounded. 

 Apical margin more than two thirds of the length of the costal, convex ; hinder angle rounded. Inner margin 

 nearly straight. Veins very delicate. Costal vein very greatly swollen at the base for a considerable length ; 

 united to the costa at about three fifths of its length from the base. Postcostal vein with its first branch 

 arising exactly at the anterior extremity of the discoidal cell ; the second, third, and fourth branches at equal 

 distances apart, beyond the end of the cell. Upper disco-cellular vein short, very oblique, arising at about half 

 the length of the wing : middle disco-cellular equal to the upper one in length, but transverse : lower 

 disco-cellular continuous with the middle one, but rather curved, and much longer ; closing the discoidal cell 

 transversely near the middle of the wing, and joining the third branch of the median vein at a short distance 

 from its base, this third vein being gradually arched from the base. Base of the median vein scarcely 

 swollen, or not swollen so much as the costal. 



Hind Wings subtri angular. Costal margin arched ; outer angle rounded ; anal angle rather obtuse. Outer 

 margin entire, fringed with long hairs. Prccostal vein very short, slender, and bent outwards. Costal vein 

 short, not extending to the middle of the costa. Postcostal vein arising just opposite to the precostal, and 

 branching at some distance from the base ; its tip extending to the outer angle of the wing. Upper 

 disco-cellular short, oblique, arising at a very short distance beyond the branch of the postcostal : lower 

 disco-cellular more than t\vice the length of the upper, with wliich it is continuous, and oblique ; closing the 

 discoidal cell in rather an acute point, beyond the middle of the wing, by its junction with the tliird branch of 

 the median vein at a very short distance beyond its origin. Submedian vein extending to the anal angle. 



Fore Legs of the male extremely small and leathery, being clothed with long delicate hairs. Fore Legs of the 

 female scarcely larger than those of the male, slightly feathered. Tarsus not dilated at the tip, which has a 

 few small spines beneath. 



Four Hind Legs rather short, scaly. Femur very slightly clothed with hairs. Tibia with short fine spines in 

 two rows beneath ; tibial spurs distinct. Tarsus scaly, armed beneath at the sides with several rows of longer 

 fine spines. Claws very much curved, entire, slender. Paronychia almost resembling the claws. Pulvillus 

 rather broad.
