 the dorsum ; this is followed by a smaller spot at the lower 

 edge of the fold halfway to the tornus ; from a little beyond 

 the middle of the costa a slightly outward-curved bright steel- 

 blue band runs to a little above the tornus, where it is 

 diverted towards the termen ; at its costal extremity are two 

 oblique white costal streaks, these are followed by three pairs 

 of similar costal streaks before the apex, the third from the 

 apex sending out an oblique steel-blue line to the termen ; 

 some steel-blue spots follow the outline of the termen below 

 it, and the space preceding these latter markings is streaked 

 with olive-brown ; cilia pale steel-grey, a slender whitish 

 ochreous line along their base followed by a narrow fuscous 

 line; the extreme apex of the wing around the last two
