$ . Dark-brown, with orange-red spots : bases rather widely 

 scaled with orange-ochreous ; hind-wing with two tails, a 

 rather long acute one on submedian nervure, and a shorter 

 one on third median nervule ; cilia whitish, with wide brown 

 interruptions at ends of nervules. Fore-wing : spots sub- 

 quadrate ; one in cell, and another just beyond it ; a discal 

 row of five parallel to hind-margin (of which the first three 

 are smaller and sometimes indistinct) between fourth subcostal 

 and third median nervules ; below third median, rather before 

 middle, the largest spot in wing. Hind-wing : a submarginal 

 row of four broad lunular spots between discoidal nervule 

 and submedian nervure (the first, and sometimes the second 

 also, occasionally obsolete), of which the last, as well as anal- 

 angular lobe, is marked with a pale-edged black spot.* 

 UNDER-SIDE. Hind-wing, and borders of fore-wing, soft-grey 

 clouded with brown. Fore-wing : orange-red ; two silvery- 

 white-centred black spots in cell, and a third, larger, closing 

 it ; spots of discal row more or less confluent, the first four 

 (there being an additional costal one) dimly white-centred ; 

 a spot on either side of origin of third median nervule. 

 Hind-wing : central region brown ; the following silvery- 

 white markings, sometimes with ferruginous edges, viz. : a 

 small spot near base, just below costal nervure ; a transverse 

 row of four before middle, of which the second (in cell) is 

 large and elongate ; closing cell, a large irregular marking, 

 emitting a broad ray along discoidal nervule to beyond middle, 

 where it unites with the fourth spot of a very irregular discal 

 row of seven or eight linear spots ; hind-margin paler, with a 

 submarginal row of more or less distinct blackish lunules. 



? . Similar to $ . Fore-wing : sometimes an additional 

 orange spot between second and third median nervules, close 

 to their origin. Hind-wing : some two or three small orange 

 marks on disc before lunular row, of which the spots are 

 larger and brighter. UNDER -SIDE. All markings more 

 clearly defined. 



* All these spots, save that near anal angle, are sometimes wanting.
