Primaries deep chocolate-brown at tbe base, followed by a triangulated white-edged 

 sienna-red band ; this band and the basal area are divided by a central longitudinal wbity- 

 brown streak; central area blackish, with a whity-brown band through the middle from 

 costa to inner margin; a cuneiform costal whity-brown patch, its point extending to the 

 apex; a Insinuated sienna-red submarginal band separated from the central area by a slender 

 white line; external border pale greyish brown: secondaries creamy white: body above 

 whitish grey-brown. Under surface pale sandy reddish: primaries with the interno-median 

 area pale silvery greyish; fringe grey: secondai'ies irrorated with black scales; a blackish

The genus Docirava is placed by Walker near to Eubolia. It more nearly resembles 

 Anaitis in pattern, but the comparatively small secondaries indicate a stronger affinity to the 

 Lobojihoru group of genera.

 at the base, two partly divided and larger near the base, a 7-shaped series just before the 

 middle ; the fourth series consists of a large quadrate costal patch, behind and below which run 

 four small spots in a curved oblique line, and below that again a large cloven patch from 

 above the median vein to near the inner margin; the fifth (or discal) series begins upon the 

 costa in a large spot, and is continued, by small spots at intervals upon a sinuated brown 

 line, to the inner margin; the last series represents a moderately wide external border. 

 interrupted in three places and divided by pale veins into more or less quadrate spots
