S . Upperside : pale creamy white ; both wings irrorated with 

 diffuse black scales ; body, base of the wings and the dorsum 

 of hind wing clothed with long white hairs. Pore wing: the 

 irroration of black scales most dense along the costal margin and 

 at base of cell, more sparse on the disc ; the apical two thirds of 

 the cell, a portion beyond the middle of interspace 1, and the 

 bases of interspaces 4, 5, 8 and 9 markedly free of the diffuse 

 black scales ; a transverse short bar across the middle of cell, 

 another along the discocellulars, and a diffuse transverse series of 

 postdiscal lunules, black ; three or four crimson spots encircled 

 with black arranged as follows : one midway in interspace 1, two, 

 sometimes three, beyond apex of cell in an oblique line from the 

 costa ; the terminal margin broadly hyaline, with minute black 

 specks at the apices of the veins ; cilia white. Hind wing : base 

 and dorsal margin beneath the white hairs densely and broadly 

 irrorated with black scales, the inner edge of this border irregular, 

 rest of the wing with more diffuse black scaling ; five or six black- 

 encircled crimson spots as follows: two, sometimes three, ob- 

 liquely above the tornus, these or one of them occasionally white- 

 centred ; one in the middle of interspaces 5 and 7 respectively, 

 these are generally centred with white ; and one pure crimson spot
