the lowest in ill-defined brick-red rings ; spot below third 

 median nervule blacker and distincter than on upper-side, and 

 continuous of the sinuate row of spots ; nervules on hind- 

 margin suffused with blackish, which forms spots on the three 

 next anal angle. Hind-wing : of a slightly more yellowish 

 tint than fore-wing ; costa edged with orange-yellow from 

 base ; grey suffusion extending as far as on upper-side, but 

 very much paler; a rather large, orange-red, black-ringed spot 

 at extremity of discoidal cell ; beyond middle, from costa to 

 sub-median nervure, a sub-angulated row of seven, red- 

 centred, blackish spots ; nervules clouded with blackish, 

 between row of spots and hind-margin. 



? . Fore-wing : suffusion from base much darker than in $ , 

 extending further towards middle; disco- cellular spot larger, 

 ovate ; apical marking dull-red, inclining to orange, and with- 

 out violet lustre, broadly black bordered externally, and 

 divided by a transverse, sinuate band of contiguous black 

 spots, similar to those on under-side of $ ; spot below third 

 median nervule large, black, quadrate, joined to inner border 

 of apical marking. Hind-wing : dark suffusion not extending 

 further than in $ , but of the same brownish-black as in fore- 

 wing ; disco-cellular orange spot hardly perceptible ; costal 

 mark beyond middle continued across wing by a row of 

 contiguous blackish spots, which become merged in the 

 blackish bands on inner-margin and hind-margin (the latter 

 of which is broader than in $ ) near anal angle. UNDER- 

 SIDE. Like that of $ . Fore-wing : apical marking yellower, 

 and more broadly red inwardly, than in $ ; the black spots 

 dividing it contiguous. Hind-wing : yellowish, darker than in 

 $ ; row of spots beyond middle larger. Fringes pale-yellowish, 

 tinged with pink, especially in $ . 



Specimens taken by Mr. D'Urban are somewhat paler than the descrip- 

 tion of the $ above given, and with less dark suffusion at bases of wings. 

 They were taken in September and December, 1860, and June and July, 

 1861.
