two small blue spots near the middle of the outer margin and

abdominal area of the hind wings.

3. Fore wing with the apex more acute than in UZ. aswa, 
but without any subapical falcation, the outer margin being 
quite straight; general coloration of body and wings deep 
bright brown and very uniform. Fore wings with a dull 
orange-ochreous outer band, rather broad and diffuse on both 
margins, from near costa one third from apex, curving out- 
wardly, and running down to the hinder angle; two whitish 
spots near the margin in the second median and lower discoidal 
interspaces, the latter the larger. Hind wings with the tail 
not produced, but much as in MV, leda, with three pure white 
submarginal dots in the first three interspaces; brown, 
mottled and striated with dark brown and with ochreous grey, 
the latter colour predominating on the upper portion of fore 
wings, and costal, basal, and abdominal areas of hind wings ; 
on the fore wings the yellow-grey forms bands from the costa 
downwards, and there are four submarginal white spots ringed 
with brown from the apex downwards; on the hind wings 
there are six submarginal spots, black with orange rings and 
white centres, the apical one the largest, the one near the 
angle duplex. 
Eixpanse of wings 3;%5 inches.
