the internal border being wider and darker than the 
others ; secondaries with the basi-abdominal two-thirds 
smoky brown, divided by white nervures, and crossed by 
a broad oblique pale buff band from the costa to the 
median vein, so as almost to fill the discoidal cell; the 
outer edge of this area is oblique, and very slightly 
arched from the costa to the second median branch, and 
from thence to anal angle is zigzag, the whole length 
bordered externally by a diffused white stripe fading into 
the discal coloration; disc pale testaceous, crossed by 
white veins; a small elongate black dot on the first 
median interspace ; outer border regularly smoky brown;

abbreviated streak below the latter, and a large oval spot 
on the first median interspace, ferruginous; subapical 
spot much larger than in the male; secondaries darker, 
with three large unequal discal ferruginous spots, of 
which the central one is twice as long as the others ; 
under surface altogether clearer and more brightly 
coloured than in the male; primaries with the borders 
paler, varied with creamy whitish; subapical ocellus 
larger and bipupillated, but with no distinct iris; 
secondaries altogether more creamy in tint, the darker 
portions being more olive, the margins pearly white like 
the veins; two oval blind ocelli with very narrow 
yellowish iris on a pale greyish olive nebula, one on the
