 veins 5 and 2, and conjoined to the very irregular submarginal 

 markings, which consist of irregular patches on apical area and 

 near outer angle connected by an irregularly dentate line and 

 sending a streak below apex and three at middle to the cilia.. 

 Hind wing with the base dark ; a discocellular spot ; a postmedial 

 irregularly waved line bent outwards between veins 5 and 2 ; an 

 irregularly dentate submarginal band expanding into a large patch
