 a larger green spot below the apex, which is narrow and runs 

 down the margin a little ; this outer band on both wings 

 contains on its inner margin an acutely dentated dark line 

 with the points black and pointing outwards, on the fore 

 wings obsolete on the thin part of the band ; marginal line of 

 hind wings chocolate, cilia ochreous grey, with chocolate
