38 GATE-KEEPER. 



brown, marked irregularly across with several waved brown bars, and 

 the margins of the same colour ; near the tip is a large blackish 

 brown eye, with a white dot, and there is a broad oblique brown 

 bar extending across the middle of the hind part of these wings, which 

 is absent in the female. 



The base of the hind wings is brown, and they have, following 

 the outer margin, a row of three or four eyes, varying in size; the 

 middle ones with a white dot in their centre. Underneath, the 

 markings of the fore wings are nearly corresponding to those of the 

 upper side, but the brown bars are not so wide, and the oblique 

 one is wanting. The eye is surrounded by a brown ring, and is 

 accompanied by a smaller satellite. 



The hind wings are neatly freckled with brown and ash-colour, 

 with many waved marks of a darker shade, two of them forming a 

 rather broad waved bar across the middle of these wings, beyond 

 which is a row of six or seven eyes, two, three, and two, that at the 

 inner corner being a double one, and these succeeded by a row of 

 darker waves: the eyes are formed of a brown spot, in which is a 

 black dot, and this again has a white spot, more or less distinct, in 

 its centre. 



The figures are from specimens in my own cabinet.
