mark arising from the subcostal nervure from middle to beyond 

 end of cell, its apex curved and ending on vein 3 beyond the lower 

 angle, where it is met by a curved submarginal dark-edged orange 

 band, with a large orange patch between it and inner margin, 

 where it is conjoined to the orange marginal band, which is defined 

 by fine black lines ; the ground-colour between the triangular 

 patch, the submarginal and marginal bands, silvery white ; cilia 

 fuscous, blackish at base. Hind wing with the base fuscous, fol- 

 lowed by a broad silvery-white band ; the outer half orange, with 

 curved black inner edge ; a fine curved jet-black postmedial line 

 from costa to vein 2 ; fine black marginal lines and line through 

 the cilia interrupted by four black spots, with white between them 

 at veins 6 to 3.

<j> . Differs from bilineale in the thorax and abdomen being 

 banded with fuscous. Fore wing suffused with fuscous to beyond 

 the cell, and with no white fascia through the cell ; no oblique 

 white discocellular band meeting the postmedial white band ; the 

 submarginal band leaden colour ; the orange areas of . both wings 

 deeper in colour. Hind wing with the postmedial white band 

 more complete ; a marginal black line, with a series of black specks

Head white ; thorax and abdomen white banded with fuscous. 

 Fore wing white, the basal two-thirds of costal area fuscous ; a 

 fuscous line, with a few yellow scales on it, from base of inner 

 margin to upper angle of cell, from which an oblique dark line 

 runs to the angle of the dark-edged postmedial band, which at 

 vein 2 is recurved to inner margin before middle ; a submarginal 

 dark-edged yellow band conjoined at vein 2 to the postmedial band, 

 and at costa and inner margin to the black-edged yellow marginal 

 band. Hind wing with the basal half white, with oblique black
