 respectively, represent the first line, which rises from a smaller brown 

 spot at one-third of costa; outer half of wing- chestnut-brown, the outer 

 line thick from near apex to middle of inner margin, separated by a 

 small lustrous spot on costa from the submarginal line which curves 

 to anal angle, but both these lines are obscured; fringe brown. 



ITindwing . — With the line slightly antemedian followed by a diffuse 

 fulvous shade; submarginal line formed of elongated olive-fulvous 

 patches on the veins, the apex itself being browner; fringe yellow. 



Under side simihn': but the interval between outer and submarginal 

 lines of forewing filled up with patches of pale lilac scales; the marginal 

 area from apex to above anal angle being yellowish; hindwing with a 

 broad ferruginous marginal border; the antemedian line thick and the 

 yellow ground-color much speckled with brown. 



Head, thorax, and abdomen deep yellow; posterior segments of dor-

Hindvying. — With the line central; the outer half of wing sublus- 

 trous; an obscure dark shade from before apex to anal angle; fringe
