of the hind-wings ; the latter are marked beneath as 

 above, except that the marginal row of incisures is broad 

 and fulvous, so that each incisure is separated from the 

 white submarginal lunule by a slender black lunule j 

 the spots at the anal angle are united into a fulvous 

 oval spot, with a black rounded spot in its middle ; the 

 underside of the thorax is considerably spotted with 

 white, and the abdomen has a row of white spots on each 

 side and down the centre.

This species (of which I have seen several perfectly simi- 

 lar specimens) has the fore-wings of a comparitively much 

 larger and broader form than P. Macareus, to which it is 

 nearly related. The upper side of the wings is of a rich 

 red-brown colour, with a silky gloss ; the anterior pair 

 are immaculate, except a submarginal row of small cream 

 coloured spots near the apical margin ; the spots next the 

 inner angle being preceded occasionally, as in the speci- 

 men figured, by two other still smaller ones ; the hind- 

 wings have a row of arrow-head shaped spots, varying 

 somewhat in size, beyond the middle of the wing, pre- 

 ceded by an indistinct spot at the extremity of the dis- 

 coidal cell, and followed by a submarginal row of whitish 

 lunules extending to the anal angle. On the underside 

 the wings are similarly marked, but the ground-colour of 

 all the wings is very pale brown, and the spots at the 

 inner angle of the fore- wings are extended to the margin ; 

 the hind-wings are marked, on the hinder margin, with 

 six very small and narrow white incisures ; the body 

 above is black, marked with white dots on the head, and 

 neck, and the sides of the abdomen have a slender white 

 line on each side beneath ; the sides of the thorax on the 

 upperside, are destitute of the whitish gray hairs which 

 are so distinct in P. Macareus. 



The relationship of this form with P. Macareus, is 

 indicated by its name being an anagram of the name of 

 that species.
