outwards above SM'^ ; the costal spot at two-thirds is 

 yellowish, and the spots between the radials white, with no 

 trace of an intermediate pale spot ; in the hind wino- the 

 dark border is not more than half the width of that of" ruji- 

 fimbria. Underside : costa of fore wung butf for two-thirds ; 

 the two white spots between radials developed into a short 

 white blotch, separated from the bufll' costal spot by a patch 

 of red and white striae and touching below a lengthened 

 leaden-grey subniarginal patch; in the hind wing the narrow 

 border is broken up by the white ground-colour and marked 

 with deep red striae only. Abdomen dorsally black in basal 

 half, brown in anal, ventrally white.

Differs a little iu aspect from typical Narragodes, but 

 agrees in essential structure. The venation is somewhat 

 variable; SC^^ are always coincident, but they may be
