Allied to /. (Enone. Black ; with creamy -white markings ; 

 a large metallic-blue, violet-glossed spot in hind-wing. Fore- 

 wing : two dull ferruginous-red, transverse streaks in discoidal 

 cell, the outer streak closing cell ; a little beyond extremity 

 of cell is a short, slightly-curved outwardly, transverse, 

 creamy-white band, extending obliquely to second median 

 nervule, and divided into five portions by crossing nervules j 

 an irregular creamy-white mark close to hind-margin, between 

 first and third median nervules, almost touches the oblique 

 band, and seems to form a continuation of it ; an irregularly- 

 shaped whitish spot close to costa, near apex ; beyond it, two 

 lunules of the same colour, slightly below it, which appear to 

 form part of an otherwise almost obliterate row of lunules 

 bordering hind-margin ; an ocellate spot, black, with a blue 

 centre and ringed with ferruginous-red, between first and 

 second discoidal nervules, immediately below white spot, and 

 another similar, rather larger and distincter, ocellus between 

 second and third median nervules, immediately within white 

 mark ; fringe brownish-black, varied with white. Hind- wing : 

 metallic-blue spot occupying the same position as in (Enone, 

 but larger; two ocelli like those in fore-wing one immedi- 

 ately above discoidal nervule, close to blue spot the other 

 between second and third median nervules, and rather nearer 

 hind-margin ; two rows of conspicuous creamy-white lunules, 

 between nervules, almost contiguous, border hind-margin ;
